At least I took one of the kids with me on a recent trip. It was one of his bucket list destinations. He got both a trip and less inheritance from it. 😁

Hopefully they keep the AY seats. You get Economy Comfort rows at the front of Y and a rather decent PE. Though, J is awesome for some and a trouble for others.

Got caught by the same two days ago. Was looking at EK fares SYD-CHC and found really affordable ones for next Feb. But we hadn't decided which weekend exactly to spend there. Two days later we had the timing sorted out - and the fares were up by 30%. The cheapest now would be fly VA to ZQN but...

Are EK PE seats available as QFF CR's? I'm trying to find PE seats in Feb 2025 for SYD-CHC return. The QF multi-city shows yellow ribbon on selected dates for outbound but clicking through gives only Y, J and F options. Is this just a question of limited releases which have been booked or is...

My Taiwanese friend was adamant that instead hiring a car, I should hire a driver over there. She may have been farsighted. Besides, it was more fun and informative that way.

His bundle of rights saw him depart? Not perhaps on time but, nevertheless, departing finally to somewhere unknown.

What a harrowing turn of events to you both, drron & mrsdrron! I'm really sorry you had to go through this and wish you will recover well from all the stress and trauma this surely caused! A big thank you for documenting and sharing your experience here for us. Perhaps it was after quite a...

Why go to QFF when there's already RexFlyer available for easy adoption? Rebrand and start enhancing the program.

In Taiwan I came across the same with a number of local properties: the only page that had anything valuable and access to booking was on Agoda. There was no hotel website or direct booking.

Departing BNE, i.e no connection to mind.

A question the other way: when does the QR bag drop close in BNE?

Came across this little piece of reporting. From this, it seems QF has company in reducing frequencies to the mainland China. https://www.reuters.com/business/aerospace-defense/foreign-airlines-lose-interest-china-domestic-carriers-expand-abroad-2024-08-09/

Need to unfortunately switch from gold to bronze. The time is needed closer to home. I was looking forward to meeting many of the luminaries of this forum properly, in person. Next time around, then...

Actually, a pretty good idea. Hadn't thought of it before...

Yes, many times. Latest ones from this year's promo.

You'd think that if the service is equipped with efficient tools and the staff now their stuff, they'd quite easily figure out similar runs than many experienced individuals here. In other words, posting your own findings here shouldn't be much of news to them as they should have something...

Final thoughts on accommodation and flights To round this up, some comments on the travel itself. Accommodation This time around I wanted to try the cheap and hopefully cheerful options to see how they go. For a proper introvert, even the thought of hostel dorm rooms is alien and a short stint...

Contemplating whether it'll be worth retaining SG on VA given I'm likely fly a lot less in the next 1-2 years (and I already have enough status on QFF side). But if I end up preferring VA SG, I'll need 210 SC by Christmas. --> What might be some decent cost-effective ideas ex-SYD either domestic...

There's one also in Jewel, i.e on landside. Open 24/7. https://www.changiairport.com/en/airport-guide/facilities-and-services/baggage-storage.html

In the Y food offering with a special diet, QF is well on par with others I've come across in recent years. CX and AY are equally poor. JL is the only one I'd think of happily having again.
