Might also be a function of earlier switches. Think SYD-MNL-SYD is generally a 333 though often first to be swapped for a 332. Can always take a while to tow across the active SYD runways. Indeed I suspect this is probably why QF is probably supportive of SYD airports T2/T3 connector and I...

Agree. But arguably we are better starting with less airlines and a decent frequency, rather than multiple airlines only flying once or twice a day. I'm sure VA will open at WSI within the first 5yrs and get all the publicity associated to themselves.

Appears VH-OQC is about to position back to Sydney empty as QF6012.

So to summarise. 332 - All but EBP EBQ 333 - unclear appears QPA QPH I J have humps but not necessarily switched on. QPF in AUH 787 - ZNJ. ZNK in HKG.

Definitely not the case. It's always been subject to a number of conditions, including lounge capacity, as well as having an eligible booking (eg. Oneworld or JQ ticket). In this case if the QF lounge can't attach the relevant high status FF number to the booking, it would be like you flying...

Undoubtedly a part of Cathay's new war on attempting to prevent people using two FF cards and splitting benefits - Cathay Pacific to stop FF changing after check in (And I'd refer to it more as splitting benefits rather than double dipping) Suspect QF lounge staff have been told that the lounge...

That's a good summary :-). I'm fortunate my only JQ/3K delay out of probably 15+ flights had me spending 9hrs in the MEL QF F lounge when I was Plat. And somewhat surprisingly 3K call centre moved my connecting flight (not on same ticket) without issue (I did miss a nights accommodation and a...

The order might changes but in general the first season of new regs the gaps are the largest but typically compress as teams copy each other and have more design and aero and compute time.

It certainly sounds like a few executives have had their roles enhanced, given the names mentioned above are taking on additional responsibilities alongside existing roles.

Without Newey and with the new Ford-RBR engine, I think RBR and RB might be in for a world of hurt in 2026. Even more so as they've been continuing work on the 2025 car as others have shifted to 2026.

Agreed. For many people the new system earns more SCs. But there are definitely a number who struggle with it including those previously flying: - Lite fares - Multi-leg/ connecting fares (used to be good $/SCs) - Family pooling (particularly 3+ ppl)

So under a week till the closure (and temporary lounge opening). Anyone flying 8 Dec or shortly after?

EBP featured on SydSquad tonight and confirmed without hump still. So just need a report on EBQ.

On the downside, seemingly a few more years of NP.

Nice report and great effort in the marathon. AA LAX lounge has been Flagship not First for many years which is why as Sapphire you got access. Flagships also in DFW, MIA, ORD and PHL and arguably JFK (Greenwich lounges though they split also with Soho and Chelsea for Emerald and true First)...

And not the first time this year either.. Surely their wargaming should have considered this event and how damm stupid they would look.

EBQ just returned from seven days in BNE maintenance, so like EBM it might have been fitted. Just need to wait for someone to fly on it or photograph it
