    Ways that hotels annoy guests

    They should at least provide a stick of blu tack on the desk for those who forgot to pack their own ;). Mrs NM will find any and every source of such light and cover it with blu tack as one of the first activities after entering a hotel room.

    QF Flight Time Change - Should I accept an interesting re-routing?

    In my case, as noted in the initial post, it is a QFF Classic Reward ticket, so not much flexibility without some form of points penalty, But an interesting thought, for sure.

    QF Flight Time Change - Should I accept an interesting re-routing?

    The plan for this trip is HLO anyway. Its only 1 night in CNS and 3 nights in AYQ. We managed HLO for 3 weeks in the USA last year, so this would be simple.

    QF Flight Time Change - Should I accept an interesting re-routing?

    No, was QF operated. Didn't verify, but I am guessing it would be 738 aircraft.

    Yep, that is my road block at this point Also note that these option are only offered via the mobile app, the web site only shows the new flight number and time for the original routing with the 15 mins earlier flight time.

    Mrs NM and I unexpectedly bumped into a famous couple in the Exec Lounge of Intercontinental Sanctuary Cove this weekend. We had never met previously, but very recognisable. Was great to meet in person after 22 or so years reading each other's posts. Caught up each evening in the lounge for...

    Oneworld Classic Flight Reward Discussion - The Definitive Thread
