Be very careful about that - most travel insurance won't cover a misconnect on separate tickets due to a delay, and neither will the airlines. That is why it is highly recommended to leave a large layover, preferably overnight if using separate tickets. All on one ticket, then the airline is...

For "direct" flights (not too much mucking about) - that Turkish combination can be had in combination with Qantas for $7,633pp or if you use Jetstar to SIN it comes down to $7,115. The routing for Jetstar is Sydney - coughet (Jetstar) - Istanbul- Prague (all Turkish), and the return is Turkish...

More information would assist. What would you consider a "shorter" leg - and does it make a difference if it is day or night? How much extra time are you prepared to spend - as unprotected connections might save money, but should involve a much longer "connection" - ideally overnight? What...

Remind me to never go near that TA. I know QF have a reputation for being expensive in J to Europe, but over $100,000 per ticket is a bit rich,, so the TA must be making a killing. Or is $400+K some weird notation for something different?

Once it is under airport control and IRROPS occurs, just about anything can happen. Many years ago there were 3 of us on 2 separate tix, one paid J and the other two of us successful upgrades to U travelling SYD-HKG. This was back when the 747 ruled the sky. One 747 went tech, and the bird we...

Why bother with movement activated - just put the sprinkler on so that they have to get wet to get into the car. Bonus points if you can arrange it to so that when they open the door, the sprinkler actually sends water into the car.

Mostly - but there are some exceptions. Different marketing carriers having different ticketing deadlines can sometimes (I can remember one specific instance) be useful to the customer. Circle Pacific fare - JL required ticketing (and hence payment) pretty much straight away. but the CX...

Agreed. I imagine it will have something to do with the transfer to airport control, and the online MMB not interfacing to that system.

Is this a possible explanation for the phenonium of a few bags only arriving early, then a long wait for the rest? Presuming that priority is being given to connecting / transit bags, a first set of bags are unloaded - either a trolly load, or however many containers have connecting luggage...

The difference in those scenarios is that the passenger is not choosing to avoid flying with their luggage. It is the cases where the passenger is potentially electing to not be on the flight their luggage is on that are the concern. If the passenger was expecting it to be on their flight...

Successfully requested release on an extra U award on an E190 - 2 March ADL-BNE. Was already 1 U, but needed two. Was showing J9 C9, D9, I7 (so no J bookings at all) and the second U was released. Now showing J7, C7, D7, I5. Is the 20:40 departure, but is a Sunday evening. Fares on this...

I think the answer is four brothers...

Whilst they may not check, it is technically a criminal offense to take a flight using a ticket in someone else's name. A typical risk situation - low probability of occurrence, potential huge consequences. Using false information to take a flight

Lounge passes are only valid when travelling QF (you have to link them to your QF booking). Depending on how early in January you are travelling, you may have a slim hope that you SG status won't drop before you travel, and will still show. There is generally a grace period of a few days...

If the ticket from between London and Helsinki was an Economy Light fare then it included NO checked allowance, and uses the piece system. As a OneWorld Sapphire you are entitled to one extra checked piece, so one piece only (not two). On the way out, you will have been checked through with...

I tried to cancel when that was brought in, but of course the cancellation failed because a late charge came through., Was going to pay that then cancel, but suddenly received a waiver of the monthly fee for a year. Coincidence? I doubt it.

As you are waiting on a Canada ETA, I assume the FIL is not a Canadian citizen - so you had better get a wriggle on about the return flights as (or at least book a refundable onward flight to the US or the like).

F cupboard.

And at 20 November, sill only one flavour, but now Raspberry and White Chocolate - the same served in J on the flight out. Obviously they just buy in bulk whatever is available (probably whatever has been over-produced).

That's the time to get narky and insist they refund that as well. They will most likely try and say it is not them making the charge, but the bank - which is wrong, they are the merchant charging the fee. Most merchant facilities for credit card typically consist of a fixed monthly fee for the...
