    Have you flown to every destination in an airline's route network?

    I can imagine that if Qantas offered 500,000 points for flying to everywhere on their network, a whole lot of AFFers would suddenly start appearing in Paraburdoo, Weipa and Moranbah 😂

    Have you flown to every destination in an airline's route network?

    Haha - well that is more achievable, I guess! I don't think I have though - am yet to fly BNE-WLG or BNE-CHC.

    What's your favourite big city destination?

    To complete the trilogy of threads I've started this morning (see here), what's your favourite place to visit if you want to experience a big, bustling city? My personal favourite is Berlin, but New York, Tokyo, Hong Kong and Singapore all come to mind as well as places I really enjoy.

    Following on from this thread: https://www.australianfrequentflyer.com.au/community/threads/whats-your-favourite-holiday-destination-for-spending-time-in-nature.121640/ I'll ask a different question here. Where would be your ideal destination for a relaxing beach/resort holiday? If I had to...

    What's your favourite holiday destination for spending time in nature?

    People often ask me what my favourite destination is. It's really hard to answer this because I like lots of different places for different reasons. Like, if you wanted a city holiday, my recommendation would be totally different than if you wanted a beach resort holiday, or to spend time in...

    Have you flown to every destination in an airline's route network?

    Have you flown so much with a particular airline that you've flown (either on that airline or in general) to everywhere in their route network? I guess this would be easier to achieve on a smaller airline with fewer destinations. Off the top of my head, I can't think of any airline that I...

    Waiting, waiting, waiting at SYD (and MEL) arrival immigration?

    I arrived in SYD this morning and there were enough Smartgates to process everyone quite quickly. I actually thought to myself that it had improved since my last morning arrival at SYD T1.

    Cathay now also bans OW FF from pre-selecting seats

    Interesting that you were able to switch from your CX to your QF number. Perhaps I should have put my CX number down originally on a recent booking that I made where I want to upgrade with Asia Miles but credit the flights to QF. @exLXCXFF can you choose a seat if you put down a CX number...

    Cathay Pacific to stop FF changing after check in

    I have an upcoming booking with CX with my QFF number in the booking. I have a Flex ticket, I'd like to upgrade using Asia Miles, and there's availability. But I cannot upgrade because I cannot change the frequent flyer in my booking to my CX number, which seems to be required to process a...
