    Melbourne Airport unveils $4.5 billion international terminal expansion

    Airport rail is the single best thing they can do to improve the passenger experience. The traffic from the freeway to the terminal can be horrendous at times.

    Qantas unveils the biggest changes to status in program history

    So for LTG, earn WP for 7 years (10,000 SC) and you get an 8th year free. Pretty lame incentive in my view.

    Guaranteed Booking as Accor Platinum - Told by Hotel they Cannot Honour

    I wonder why they don't just put the price up to $1,999 per night once they are fully booked. That's what other hotels seem to do.

    Jetstar adds Melbourne - Colombo

    I think CMB should be grouped with DEL and BLR therefore 50 status credits. However given the Jetstar website clearly says 25 status credits then you have no grounds to argue if in fact the system gives you 25 status credits.

    AirAsia X Launches Kuala Lumpur-Bahrain-London (Gatwick)

    Wow, seeing Chinese airlines being promoted on AFF is certainly a surprise. I don't expect the AFF crowd to be the target market for this service. It should be a good option to/from Asia, especially for those nationalities without visa free access to China and Chinese airlines.

    Jetstar reviewing Cabin Bag policy

    They catch people with overweight bags and make them pay so I'm assuming their jobs add to profits.

    Article: How to Write an Effective Airline Complaint

    I'm not familiar with reports of what Krisflyer normally offers as compensation but if he didn't ask for 5,000 then couldn't Krisflyer have easily just offered 1,000 on a take it or leave it basis, or worse, just an apology?

    What a shame. SYD-MEL J at $299 would have been a good status run.

    The best hotel breakfast is a lavish buffet with a massive selection of food and drink from every cuisine imaginable. Just sit down and feast.

    Is it Worth Attaining Qantas Silver to Book Emirates First?

    If your main objective is to continue to use your millions of points for EK F then yes you should pursue Silver. Considering the millions of points and thousands of dollars in surcharges you'll be spending for EK F then earning 300 status credits is not really a big deal.

    ALL Accor+ Explorer Membership Discussion

    You can contact a blogger, get them to reach out to their Accor contacts and maybe they'll do something for you. Otherwise most people will just find another hotel to use their Stay Plus at. Despite information on their website suggesting Stay Plus has no restrictions, this is not the case in...

    Virgin Bali expansion, next up CBR-DPS

    It could work. Outbound schedule is more leisure friendly than Batik's. If the Canberran wants to fly home on a day without a direct flight, VA can offer flights connecting in other cities. Not to mention Velocity earn & burn.
