I don't believe there are any arrival lounge options (but I'd be happy to hear differently). I've taken to booking my hotel for the night before when coming in on an early morning QF flight and using it before heading into the office (an admittedly expensive solution). The lack of arrivals...

QF22 cancelled tomorrow (Wednesday)

Does anyone know if any arrivals lounges are available in LHR Terminal 3? I'm arriving on QF9 (in J) and as far as I can make out the Plaza Premium and Regus lounges are closed (and there is no longer access to the AA arrivals lounge). Looking to get a shower before heading into the office.

KIH - Kish Island, Iran OMAS - Das Island, UAE

30,000 for me - and the same for the person I gifted WP to

I flew out of Perth on Saturday (EK metal, QF flight number) and they sent me to the Aspire lounge. I'm Platinum One with Qantas but would presume that it's the same for Gold

Interesting - I just tried as well and couldn't get the extra 10%.

Also I don't think you get the chauffer drive at either end if it's a QF flight number on EK metal (or at least I can't see it on my booking coming up next week)

The actual interview was a bit easier - second time round there weren't really any questions - first time round I think I was asked why I was going to the US and the purpose of my visits. But I wouldn't exactly call either of them difficult. It's a bit tedious but at least it's only once every...

I went to Iran a dozen or so times in 2015/16 and have been unable to get an ESTA since then. I got 5 year multi entry visa for the US in 2016 which ran out last year and I applied for and received a new one at the start of this year. The process was fairly straightforward but did include an...

I went through Sydney a couple of weeks ago and I'm not sure what the fuss is about. The process for checked bags is exactly the same as before - you pick them up at the international baggage reclaim and drop them off at the transfer desks. The difference is that the passengers don't go...

I got one last week - so they must still be a thing

I had a seat released in J on QF9/10 earlier this week. The automated system said no but it was approved after going through a manual review. No idea what that entailed but the seat came through as confirmed after 24 hours when they called me back. Expert Flyer was showing D9 I9 for QF9 and D9...

Had a J seat released on QF 9 &10 PER-LHR return. Outbound was straightforward, inbound required a few calls and date changes until the automatic system could release one.

Pommery Louise 2004 arrived in Perth this afternoon - and L1 on the card

I don’t think it’s quite like the taxi analogy - my understanding is that a specific driver is allocated to you, it’s just that s/he won’t be holding a sign with your name on it. Hence I always use the method recommended by KPC and send Carey and email to advise the driver that I won’t need the...

Madalenas in South Freo is excellent. A bit more bar than restaurant but great seafood and a fantastic wine list. Also has been nominated in Gourmet Traveller as one of the top new restaurants in Australia. You can’t book so get there early to secure a table. https://www.madalenasbar.com.au/

I’ve had exactly the same issue for some flights to the US next week - eventually I just contacted Qantas and they were able to allocate seats for me. They couldn’t see why it had happened from their end. I tried various way including the mobile app, full website and a couple of different browsers.

Oh no - I can confirm that my wife sat in 23A :eek: but also that she had nothing to do with seat allocation - she simply saw her assigned seat change from 24D (I think - front row of economy) to 23A when she was on her way to Heathrow. We'd used my points to request an upgrade to J that hadn't...
