It’s definitely closed. Reuters

Just note that there is a lot of construction and consequent delays on the roads at JFK just now. With that sort of time frame I would grab a day room at JFK, the HGI Queens is perfectly reasonable. Take the air train to Federal circle for the hotel shuttle. Shower, leave bags and head back on...

I have had 4pm checkout at quite a few Conrads DXB, SIN and LHR off the top of my head but may be others. I think this is a poor move by Hilton if indeed they intend on monetizing it. Maybe that like Hyatt they are going to offer it as a paid add on in the App but zero charge for Diamond ...

The JAL F lounge opens at 0530 when there is a JL early flight departure, I forget exactly which destination: days of the week but I used the F lounge in April before QF26

There’s a blackout period for Europe that would include June. Doesn’t matter how many discount fares for sale.

💯 QR simply blows QF J out of the water. That’s not to say that I haven’t had some very good meals on QF J because I have. The menu on QR is vastly greater in terms of choices, ingredients and true dining on demand. Add in Caviar in J out of DOH and it makes QF look like a very poor cousin.

Have been here many times. But tonight’s office was still a bit special. Flagship DFW

This is a fairly poor quality repost of a Sam Chui reel. It’s titled Qatar A380 Crew Secrets. The original is here: Qatar A380 Behind the scenes

They were on my no fly list since forever. Not because of safety concerns though.

They were flying PE and didn’t think the effort required was too much for the points. From memory the monitoring started a week prior to departure.

I know someone who did flying QF1. They wore a glucose monitor, kept a food diary etc.

Was already actioned

Catering strike affected my flight earlier today. This was J on a 3 hour flight ex-HEL Still Water/ Blueberry juice/ Tea/Coffee and the cookie. That was all that was available. Same as Y except for the hot drinks. I’d be very wary of actively booking AY right now given the multiple strikes...

Hard pass. Will be a market for it though I think.

There’s every chance of you fitting into the L /XL regardless of how petite you are. The same cannot be said for people of size fitting into the M/L. I doubt the crew have the time or energy to give first dibs on size to Plats in J. Does anyone remember the first iteration of the Martin Grant...

Usually within a week of getting all the ticks

Most of my recent int arrivals have been BNE, I find it pretty good for the NTL connections. Agree about SYD for INT departures. Train is a bit painful but sometimes use it if I don’t drive a hire car down there. This new route A319 is a hard pass for me, even although I go to PER a few...

Sadly no. A319 Y only Qantas

This was the one I purchased a couple of weeks ago. Was the last tick I needed and I’ll wait until June 1st to accept the SC.

I have never let my UK passport lapse same with all of my Australian born children. Been an Australian citizen for 15 years. Being able to get Global Entry long before Australia was a great benefit. But I think the emotional attachment was the bigger drive.
