It would be commercial-in-confidence, no?

Google tells me Osaka Itami airport is 20 kms north of downtown Osaka. Compared to KIX, 40 kms south of the city, that seems relatively close.

The Tokyo route is more reminiscent of the direct QF services to Tokyo, before AO (re-)appeared. There was (at least) two daily services, one of which flew onto BNE (with Domestic on-carriage pax) and one to SYD. Can’t remember the flight numbers… but I’ll have them somewhere on my laptop to...

I’ve only ever said seven-four-seven, so took my brain another second to translate that seven forty seven was B747. ☺️

I feel for all the staff that just found out they no longer have a job with only 2 months notice. I wonder what the mandatory redundancy pay out provisions are for Singapore staff. (Can’t imagine they would be generous.).

My surname is fairly common, and in combination with my first name, it was very tricky to get a Gmail address with some sort of combination that I was happy with until a friend suggested “kevro” (never really been a fan of “kevy”). So it’s conveniently been available across quite a few...

I’m in same bucket… never heard of before and went and googled it after reading the post. Interested in more info too pls ☺️

This is my dilemma. Haven’t chosen one or other yet… I’ll get Forever Gold already when it comes in, and doubt I’ll requal Platinum this year, so not sure whether to bother even trying with the SCs.

I didn’t really find this when I was researching the various London Sixt sites. The daily rate at LHR was lower than the city locations, but then bumped up with the airport location tax. And then the city locations didn’t have the location tax but the daily rates were higher. They were all...

I nearly always book through the Business Portal and have received DSCs in previous promotions.

See the details at Gold Coast Airport’s web site. http://www.goldcoastairport.com.au/corporate-partnerships/community-environment/community-overview/aviation-enthusiasts/Plane_Spotter_Competition_2025

Except if you renew through Amex Platinum card benefit.

I’ve qualified for Forever Gold. Mostly made up from 7 years of work travel between CNS and BNE/SYD on (first DJ and then) VA. For some years I also stayed QF WP (hit P1 one year also). I’ve reached QF LTG already, so now I can revert to BFOD for our occasional domestics family trips, though va...

Ah, they must have added that in the 10 years since I last read the T&Cs. Thanks

Whose midnight, I’ve always wondered…?

I bought Travelon scales many years ago. When I was looking then my research found they were the lightest and most compact scales that I could find at that time. I couldn’t understand why some were so bulky and big when I was trying to minimise weight...

In preparation for our recent trip in Paris, my research showed they had recently changed how the metro tickets work, including the tourist passes. So perhaps it was enchanced during this change. The tourist passes isn’t much value except if you are travelling to the airports, which seems...

They have plenty of sweets/chocolate options… you just have to ask. Tim tams, Cadbury chocolate, white macadamia balls… I know it’s not Lindt, but it is available.

If you’re planning on visiting other major (and minor) museums in Paris, the Paris Museum Pass was good value and allows ability to skip entry queues at some places. Some places still needed a booked time entry, but having the Pass sped things up in most places. It is consecutive days though, so...

In contrast, on recent EK flights, they specifically stated, “we don’t use gimmicks or celebrities… we just want to give you the safety info…”. Seemed to be staff and “regular” people in the video.
