I've just booked myself a return flight from LAX to LHR using the BA website. As SG, I've pre-selected my seat on the BA metal from LAX to LHR. I might be completely blind, but it appears that i cannot do the same on the return sector which is BA codeshare on AA metal. Is there a way I can...

Good article. Reminded me of one i read in the WSJ about Lufthansa discovering that our perceptions of sweetness and saltiness drop by up to 30%. Lufthansa Searches for Savor in the Sky - WSJ.com

Smart marketing - im now pulling the other one! thewinchester, I'll declare my cards right off the bat and say that im no marketing expert. Sure, i have studied Marketing in a post graduate environment, but I'd classify this knowledge as being 'enough to be dangerous'. I'll also declare in...

According to Introducing Rico - Air New Zealand's latest online hit! | Ads | Fun stuff | Throng its a collaboration with Jim Henson's company. Like it or hate it - smart marketing i would say as its flying through the social media circles.

I have to say that AFF members rock. Looks like I'm retaining SG and get to swing past the US on the way to see my lady in the UK :mrgreen:. Thanks so much for your help and ideas.

I'm toying with the idea of a mini status run by taking the long way round to the UK in November. At this stage I'm looking to route from SYD to LAX on QF, then skip across the pond to LHR with either AA or BA (all in whY or equivalent). Forgive my ignorance in all this, but i am trying to get...

Where is the like button when you finally want one... :mrgreen:

munitalP, On my previous trip to Vietnam it took about 2 weeks to get my Passport returned with the business visa (i did have to sent it via my head office so may have only taken a week if it was sent direct). One site i have saved for future reference is: Visalink I cant comment on their...

Andrew, I cant say much about you VA or United legs, but with QF on the way out you can check your baggage right through to LAX from BNE so no need to re-check, just make your way over to T1 via the transfer bus then pass through customs - probably no time for a visit to the lounges before...

I must admit that i view this as more the usual hot-air O'Learyism we are getting used to seeing from esteemed Irishman acting as heads of Airlines rather than the truth. I can't imagine too many F, J or Y+ passengers who would want to fly into the UK for business being happy to add another 2-3...

Princess Fiona, I regularly have a similar waiting period before boarding on my QF flight to London. I stand to be corrected but I believe you have 2 choices: 1. Check bags all way through from original domestic airport (if it's regional make sure your checking baggage in 60mins beforehand...

Thanks for the :shock:.... ummmm (sarcasm) reply Sam - i do understand what the iPad does and even have managed to be able to read. Specifically i am trying to ascertain if people find themselves using the 3G functionality a lot vs just waiting until they find a wifi spot... which is something...

I'm looking to get an iPad on my trip OS at the end of the month, but haven't read much on peoples opinions as to whether to go for the 3G version vs Wifi only... anyone with thoughts?

Not sure if you are in London at all, but one of the best things i have done on my visits is to do a bike tour of London - lots of things that aren't in the guide book and a great way to experience just how small a city it really is for £18. http://www.biketoursoflondon.com/ The day i did it i...

Re: im sorry Qantas but you really have gone downhill... why? I loved Qantas for so l I can't speak for you being a misinformed idiot, though I am one too if you are! I have to say that at the end of the day it comes down to personal preference, like anything in life... I like this Airline...

Re: im sorry Qantas but you really have gone downhill... why? I loved Qantas for so l Not to mention all those old books at the library with used pages. I like my books and Qantas The Australian Way inflight magazines in mint condition.... Maintain the rage indeed!

I hadn't really given the direct approach much consideration - thanks nlagelle :D

Thanks Serfty, I'll look at PP and see if its of value. Also looked at flying via SYD, but alas the timetable (and date being a Friday) means that i would be cutting it fine for the last connection back to ABX. Wouldn't normally worry me, but given this is on the back of a 3 week trip to the...
