(Amex Lounge) I wonder if you can still take the elevator down to the Sky Team Lounge?

Thanks! If no change, I will use my Amex Card for the Amex lounge I guess.

*from SYD

I am departing in SYD.

I am flying in J to Queenstown in November with VA. I also have Gold status with SQ. Will I be able to visit a lounge at either end?

Mainly medical and dental training and supply of medical and dental equipment and disposables to rural hospitals.

Just an update on this…. Thanks to all for the advice. I have cancelled everything. Still on the the pending list with ESTA. Be interesting to see how long it remains that way before it is denied. Have my Visa interview scheduled for April 2023 so if approved will rebook our trip next year.

I have sent a few emails but had no reply. I will try calling.

When filling out the ESTA form, I selecting the option that states Humanitarian work which I have been doing in DPRK. I would have thought that this is a legit rationale for visiting. I assume though that they would still want an interview which I guess will not be scheduled in time.

Travelling to Canada & Alaska on 31/8/22. Flying into Vancouver and joining an Alaskan cruise for 7 Days then 7 days land travel (Anchorage, Talkeetna, Denali NP, Fairbanks etc). Then flying Fairbanks to Seattle then Seattle/SIN/SYD. Applied for our ESTA for the US 2 weeks ago and still pending...

Thanks for the advise MattA & Lux Lizard. I have actually had a win! My wife & I have a joint Dragon Amplify Card. Usually I transfer the points to my KF account as I do most of the flying. So, I called St George Amplify Rewards and asked them to switch the account to send points to the wife's...

Greetings! Hoping this is the right thread for this question...... I am planning a trip from SYD to MAA in the next 3 weeks. I will book J for 168000 KF miles return. I want to use my wife's points as they will expire at EOY but she only has 153577 KF miles in the warehouse. So I am 14423 miles...

I am so thankful for the above post and I will advise below the outcome! 1300 025 396 - advised a 2 hour wait so hung up immediately. 1300 659 116 - went straight thru in a matter of seconds to a CSO. I had emailed Qantas 12 days ago as I needed to change a flight due to my International...

Just discovered that India now requires 7 Day Home Quarantine for all passengers/all countries from 11/1/22. Will now be cancelling my 10 day trip which was SYD/SIN/MAA/VTZ on 16/1/22. 😞

I am looking at business trip in March to the CFF in Guangzhou & via Hong Kong first. Not sure what the restrictions will be by then. Certainly wont go if I have to do quarantine.

@cove. Don’t hold your breath for an ATO thank you! What is the new card you are testing? Yes, WA is very COVID strict. You may have to just stay on in the Old Dart. SQ Suites are now a distant memory but they were awesome! Maybe someday……

Hey Cove, You‘re not using Sniip? Amex fee of 1.5%. They pay the Bpay for you. Full points are awarded! No worse than what we used to do with The Retired Westpac Kris Flyer Platinum Amex Cheers, Mitch

Finally after 3 phone calls to Velocity, they gave me a full points and T&C refund. I had to ask to speak to a supervisor. This is after I called Hainan in China to confirm that the flight & route was actually cancelled for certain. Now coming home with my ole favourite SQ.

Thanks Matt, I called Velocity today and they inform that they have not been advised by Hainan that the route or flight has been cancelled. I explained that the flight is not available on Hainan's website or Velocity but they insist they cannot cancel the flight without penalty to me unless...
