Congrats Lindsay. I finally hit Silver Lifetime last month also. Not that it means anything. More exciting was the Gold membership for hubby. I certainly enjoyed staying in Aust this month. I think I'll be here for the rest of the year which is just lovely :p SEP 2007 QF MEL-SYD 439 miles...

Just one trip in August, but 2 weeks away was enough - rained most the time :( Got J>F upgrades both ways but it wasn't worth it. AUG2007 QF MEL-SIN-LHR 10,516 miles 23,661 QFF points 240 SC QF LHR-SIN-MEL 10,516 miles 23,661 QFF points 240 SC Total flights 4 Total miles 21,032 Total QFF...

I'm trying out the First Lounge in Melbourne tonight (heading to London). I haven't booked a spa treatment or anything, but as it's an evening flight, I will be wanting to get something to eat. I wonder how well they cater to vegetarians...

I'm surprised you haven't had a letter from them being that it's so close! Let us know what happens with it.

We've got about 200SC's worth of paid bookings in the system right now, but nothing past the Oct 31 date. Plenty of travel planned though, but we prefer waiting until the dates get a little closer before booking in case things change.

Hi guys, I've read through a few posts about this as I look after a group of 4 guys in a band who have been recording all year and not flying anywhere. This is all about to change as they start touring again. Last year they earnt about 1000 SC's and maintained Gold and this year it's...

2 for me. I usually take my shoes off. I only wear shoes when it's socially unacceptable not to, so my feet aren't too stinky anyway. I also leave rubbish in the seat pocket - where else can we put it?

My job is a bit different to all those posted so far. I work in the music industry as a band manager. I currently look after 3 Aussie bands but they travel internationally and as a result so do I, but usually not at the same time as them. Work makes up 99% of my flights - not because I don't...

Congrats on requalifying! I cancelled LHR/CDG/LHR on my DONE4 in May and boy have I been paying the price from hubby since then!!

If you are in fact referring to your sister, then surely no transfer of points is required if you intend using them personally. Can't she simply book the flight for you using her points?

Sounds like we were definitely at DFW at the same time though which terminals when are a bit of a haze for me. I was at both A & C at SOME point :lol: I was out of LAX super fast thanks to no baggage - I was at the hotel by the time you arrived.

The ANC run certainly seems to be a popular one. I found it quite easy to handle being that there's only a 90 min wait between the flights arrival and departure back to DFW and for 300 SC's and a beautiful view of the snow, well worth it - even if flying AA So far all flights have been...

Flights 9 - 13 Sat Jun 09 – BA2193 LGW 1035 / DFW 1430 Boeing 747-200/300 Seat: 10K (Flight 9/17) Boy am I dreading this - 5 flights in a row, and 4 of them on my least favourite airline. I get the feeling that I won’t try this SC style trip again – not if it means flying AA – an airline I...

Well having stepped off 4 AA flights in a row 2 hours ago, (none of which were required) I can safely recommend avoiding these flights unless you really need to increase your SC's. There's not even a foot rest, which for 5'3" me means I now have rather sore legs. No real recline, and even though...

Re: Flights 1 & 2 Well I live in Melbourne, so you never know! One of the guys I had to meet up with at the hotel (a Perth local) was very excited to be sharing a lift with some Roos players and wished them luck for the game as they're his team - a Perth boy! What is that about??

Flights 7 & 8 Tue Jun 05 – JL719 NRT 1105 / SIN 1715 Boeing 747-400 Seat: 10A (Flight 7/17) Two flights today and 25 ½ hours total travel time. I was only issued my JAL boarding pass so I have to wait until Singapore for my next one. When I was in Perth I’d called Qantas to request an...

Flights 3-6 Sat Jun 02 – QF071 PER 1530 / SIN 2050 Airbus A330-300 Seat: 4A (Flight 3/17) And so we begin - the first of my ‘not needed’ flight experiences for SCs. Instead of a flight straight to Tokyo, I’m going PER/SIN/NRT/HKG/NRT. Why not? My meetings don’t start until 10am Monday and...

Flights 1 & 2 Thu May 31 – QF422 MEL 1000 / SYD 1120 Boeing 737-800 Seat: 1A (Flight 1/17) Normally I fly direct out of Melbourne overseas but on this occasion there’s business to attend to in Sydney & Perth thus I don’t yet get to experience the F lounge. My husband also has business in...
