I'm really curious to see if they remove themselves from my Apple Pay automatically. As I understand it, in theory they should.

So the same as the upcoming PER-LHR flight from QF then :)

Couldn't agree more, as someone who flies mostly Y on 15-20+ hour international trips from Perth, with the occasional J upgrade... just take a few Y trips and then go back to enjoying your biz :-) Having said that I have partially experienced what you mean and honestly it's all about the exact...

It's common for the first chunk of rows to be unavailable even for me on Gold until T-80 hours; though sometimes I find they're really gone and booked versus just blocked.

Google Flights is good for this too, quick easy "one slider" tickbox notification on price changes on any search criteria.

To further that, you absolutely can receive upgrades when there are none initially available. And I have done so many times, in fact this week I got a requested (non-immediate) upgrade on both PER-MEL and MEL-PER at T-24h or so. Having said that, in my experience the weekend flights...

Not posted after 2 weeks for me as yet, might need to lodge a query

Only advice I can offer is that for me, as Gold, they opened up at T-80 like things otherwise generally do

I think you've got your hat on backwards, he was asking a question if it would; not making an actual statement in any way. Read it again and have another try...

They happily comped me a few SCs for Gold status, so I'd give them a call and ask nicely.. though only Silver it's also only 5 SC.

Good question, I meant stupidly cheap given how good the food was. Here's the menu, you're looking around 15 EUR for a meal. They have lots of sushi (which was good) but I'd highly recommend the indian dishes in particular. http://www.hugosloungemalta.com/viewer/110/download.pdf

I stayed at the Corinthia Hotel for a work conference, has an awesome view right onto the ocean including the pool decks. Was pretty good for the price. I would also *highly* recommend Hugo's Lounge.. it's about 2/3rds up a long (long) staircase from street level. There are a lot of different...

Yep, took advantage of this for a trip PER-SCL with 240SC so now 360.. Winning. Only 405 more SCs to find in 4 months for Platinum, mmm... Fairly sure I read somewhere you can sign up to Qantas Business Rewards and still register this then. And they no longer have the 2 employee minimum...

Can no longer make it apologies, hopefully next time!

Shangri-La is very nice, but very not cheap. Short walk to a nice big mall also. Plan 4 hours to get back to the airport, the traffic is legit crazy like nothing else I've ever seen. Uber is available.

I'm in for Monday Evening May I suggest Bobeche?

In my experience, they are usually a similar price up front, but as they start to sell out from QF then they may offer you an EK coded ticket instead for cheaper instead of the QF ticket. So they appear to have a re-sale agreement for the EK seats.. exactly when they offer you that, is not...

Good point. I didn't realise the changes would affect this situation.

Yeah my wife was struggling to believe me when I explained that these travel cards are, on the whole, worse than simply using your normal card. And that actively converting currency ahead of time is likely going to lose out compared to just paying the instant transfer tax unless you have a...

It also worked a little better when sometimes it resulted in you not paying the 3% fee on your credit card, but most credit cards updated their terms in the last couple of years so that basically the card issuer, merchant, bank, currency and everything has to be local or it applies. Their rate...
