    When will Australia get modern entry procedures?

    The VJW app is basically the equivalent of the Australian form, which generates a QR code to contain all pre arrival information. So basically when you arrive, you scan the QR code and scan passport to link all those info together, then immigration officer will screen you and issue you a...

    When will Australia get modern entry procedures?

    Recently I had a wonderful experience travelling into Haneda. Queues were long, however there were a minimum 50 passport reading machines which meant it moved fast. Even there were hundreds of people queuing up, there were essentially no stopping all the way. After baggage claim, there are...

    Japan Airlines blocking Premium Economy ex-SYD

    NS26 schedule released. Japanese gold digging express JL51/52 will be down gauged to B788, losing First Class and potentially making reward seats unavailable. JL773/774 will reduce to 3x Weekly. It is so sad that demand for Australia - Japan is weak over Summer period. Perhaps young Japanese...

    Between Australia and East Asia. You know, border closures are hard to predict and it is worrying that you may get stuck or quarantined if things go worse.

    Nipah Virus

    It appears that Nipah Virus is affecting Bangal and Thailand authorities are concerned and screening passengers from India. This virus is deadly, can spread and has no vaccine or cure. I was wondering if Australia should be concerned which may affect travel plans similar to 2020? I am super...

    Virgin Bali expansion, next up CBR-DPS

    Thank you. I am not disagreeing, was concerned that VA may not have that vision of Qantas which will cost them.

    Virgin Bali expansion, next up CBR-DPS

    Why not? If VA is only thinking about O&D traffic to DPS then I suggest someone please buy VA and sack the entire management for lack of vision.

    Virgin Bali expansion, next up CBR-DPS

    Is it possible to connect with SQ947? If yes, then it is game changer for the ACT.

    Has Cathay stopped personal greeting for Qantas passengers?

    However please note that you should be choosing the lounge closest to the gate to minimise walking.

    Mile high club - How does airlines manage it?

    Please delete this thread if it is offensive. I have been thinking, with the introduction of more Premium cabins, such as The Residence, First Class Apartments, Suites etc., and Double Bed Business Class cabins with doors closed, whether there would lead to more incidents of passengers joining...

    Qantas International Business - Domestic Segments in Economy?

    Travel Agent such as Trip..com can do SIN-PER-ADL-SYD on Business, but if it is SIN-PER-MEL-SYD then MEL-SYD is on economy only. Also I was wondering if I am booking through trip.com whether it is eligible for DSC when offer is available?

    Qantas International Business - Domestic Segments in Economy?

    I have been searching for some international flights out of Singapore into Sydney. As status credit matters, I refuse to fly direct into Sydney, but rather I would like to try some one stop options such as going via Brisbane, Melbourne, Perth and Darwin. From Singapore, if you are flying via...

    Jetstar to fly to Singapore, Bangkok & coughet from Perth in 2024

    To be honest, I don't mind Qantas to deploy Domestic config A321XLR to run 2x Daily PER-SIN to replace daily A332. Frequency matters. The more frequency means more likely to have reward seats and also easier to connect with other airlines, such as Cathay Pacific to Hong Kong, Japan Airlines to...

    Jetstar to fly to Singapore, Bangkok & coughet from Perth in 2024

    I hope the cancelled JQ99/96 service can be replaced by Qantas A321XLR. With a day time departure from SIngapore, it can be popular amongst premium flyers.

    Has Cathay stopped personal greeting for Qantas passengers?

    Hm... That's a bit strange. I had 4 flights so far in 2026 and did not have personal greeting. They greeted Cathay Gold instead. I saw that on their iPad, I had a green square next to it, Cathay Gold is gold and Diamond is black.
