Late to this poll but just I've dropped from Gold to Silver and won't be back for the foreseeable future. I've got 1235 status credits this year which is enough for Platinum, but they're mostly from SQ partner earn and I didn't take the required number of VA flights to meet either SG or WP...

So to close this saga, Marriott split my St Regis booking in 2 and credited only the days that didn’t overlap with the other stay. They wouldn’t un-credit the cheaper night in the middle to give me the full points for the St Regis. Lesson learned, being loyal to the Marriott chain was actually...

Interesting quirk today, the Qantas Business website has decided that QF2 has a 'hidden' stop in SIN and you're not actually allowed to get off the plane.

Thanks, I’ve asked for that to happen but no joy so far. Hoping common sense will prevail and they’ll credit the longer stay if they won’t accept both, but lesson learned.

Just a cautionary tale for anyone making overlapping bookings with Marriott. I was in the middle of a 13 night stay at a St Regis in one European city when I needed to take a trip to another city unexpectedly for one night. I didn’t check out of the St Regis and left most of my luggage there...

I'm assuming it's the same mob, it has a silver 'tde' on the inside.

I received the QFF card fee invoice this morning too (twice). Yes I am P1. Also got the KLM email. Will be interested to see if the overall response there is different given they’re bound by EU regulations.

I inadvertently qualified for P1 last Monday, despite having decided at the start of my membership year that I was just going to re-qualify for WP but then shift all my international flights to SQ and domestic to VA. So far, so impressed. Received a phone call (which I missed) and subsequent...

I did the QF1/2 return in F twice in July, from those sectors I’d say at least half I was proactively asked if I wanted to dine at the standard time or later in the flight. The only leg it wasn’t asked at all was SIN-SYD given the very short overnight flight time. I didn’t test the process...

Unfortunate timing - I just received a P1 pack and luggage tag today. Would have much appreciated preferred the new blue ones!

I enjoyed it the last time I had it (which was also December last year), but every time I've tried ordering it since they haven't had any loaded. Another 2 strikes on QF2 home today too.

Has anyone successfully ordered the “signature” coughtail in recent months? I’ve tried the last 6 flights and it’s never loaded.

Oh, right! Then no, it didn’t taste anything like mint or tea. Perhaps my taste buds aren’t that sophisticated.

Sorry, I’m not a tea person so can’t help with that!

No, to be honest I was more interested in what would happen than actually being seated in that section. Have had a week of great QF experiences for the first time in a while so I’m content with my wontons and spicy margaritas no matter where I’m sitting today.

I’m here again now, in transit on QF1 in F. Seated in the pleb section as usual, no escort from the front entrance.

Yup, thankfully I saw your message just as we got off the plane! Posted in the menus thread. Same menu as June, different (and much nicer) champagne.

QF1 today. Food menu same as Oscarq posted last month, wines slightly different.

New data point, I'm in SYD again today on QF1 in F. This time around everything went as it should. Welcomed at the front desk, escorted directly to the roped-off section by the same staff member who checked me in. Offered a spa treatment at any time that suited me. Specials menu provided...
