    Emirates (EK) Exit Row: First-come, First-serve or for your mates

    Have never flown EK, but will be interested in the reply from Sydney. Is there a chance they allocated the seats to someone with a medical condition, or something similar? I am in J but the other pax in my group is in Y. - Reminds me of my last flight with the Good Lady, when at first we...

    MEL dinner & drinks - Wednesday 1 MAY 2013

    Put me down as a definite maybe - I'm rostered to finish at 7pm that day so could be late, but that looks likely to change. Got to love shiftwork. What time do they usually go until?

    Qantas Wine latest offering

    Noticed this yesterday when I ordered 2 x 6 bottles from the 4000 promo. The expiring date of the 4000 points bonus on the email says 17th, but on the pop up when I paid stated midnight 18th as above. Well done to those who order today!

    Qantas Wine latest offering

    (sorry for the newbie question but...) - Is it too late to take advantage of this offer? T&C on the email state Offer Ends April 17 - does that mean I should have ordered the wine yesterday, or is today (17th) still ok. Thanks

    Thai Airways Lounge for Y

    ^^^ yeah that! 15 hours is a long time in a lounge. I generally have had enough after an hour or two. Having said that Thai Air have a lot of lounges at BKK airport, maybe you can pay as a Y passenger to access one - unless you have status with them.

    Qantas Wine latest offering

    I'm with you - the specials are generally enough to keep us going. Be it bonus points or otherwise. Maybe the order pickers are mostly casual and simply get sent home without pay in between promotions..

    Qantas Wine latest offering

    The more I read things like this, the more I'm happy I didn't give Cellarmasters "permission" to phone. Only made one order through them thanks to a good deal (via AFF) but get a fair bit of junk mail - both email and snail mail, from them.

    Last to board

    Can't see a reason to be first on - especially if you're going to be on there for a long time anyway. I see a lot of people with an extraordinary amount of carry on fighting over first place though. Better off enjoying the lounge, or even the boarding area for that matter.

    Its enough to give you $#!+$

    I don't consider myself large but I often bump into things in the onboard loo - even the J ones.. can't see bigger people doing too well if this is true.

    How long does an International Drivers Licence last?

    Pretty sure they aren't required in the UK, which likely means EU as well - I hired a lot of cars in UK (years ago) and it didn't look like Aussies needed them there, even though I had one (from memory, I volunteered the thing but they weren't interested - they recognize our licence). Was a...

    Thumbs up to epiQure

    Yeah all or most posties now don't work for the PO, they subby for someone else who is a subby for another mob - who likely subbies for the crowd who got the contract to deliver for the PO. I'm lucky mine is a real gem - top chick who knows a few of us in the street - one or two houses get...

    Double Status Credits 2013

    Does the DSC promotion happen regularly? I've recently (last year) switched to QFF after being with Star Alliance for so long, and recently got the email (April, May June DSC) and my year ends June 30. Bronze now, may make Silver with this promo. While this year will be ok, a few local flights...

    What's the beef with Halal?

    Some people are against Halal for one reason or another. it isn't hard to understand why Emirates would want this as a condition to the new deal.

    If airlines treat their economy class passengers extraordinary well

    All you could really do is compare different economy services and compare their rates. IMO Singapore and then Thai deliver the best international economy service I've had - Jetstar a hell of a lot worse, but they are LCC and a bit cheaper - but with the "added extras" the price difference isn't...
