    DFW Lounge Options

    Walked into the OW lounge, walked straight out. While no food option, I always use the AA lounge - at that time it is near empty, always a spare shower, good drink options with the coupons you get from the AAngels.

    Filling in Saturday afternoon in Dallas

    Highly recommend visiting the 6th floor museum in downtown dallas. I'm a political and history nut but can spend at least a couple of hours in there and surrounding area.

    Transit in Dallas Fort worth

    Been plenty of times where I have gone to the airport early and asked AA for an earlier flight. When explained the tight connection, they have always been happy to accommodate if there's a spare seat. Worth a shot. Either way, I think you should be fine.

    Sydney International Terminal Transfer and Hotel

    If staying at the rydges - I would enquire about their own terminal transfer service. They might be able to pick you up.

    Code share disadvantages

    Agree with above. Really depends on who you are codesharing with. Had issues with AA metal fights with QF code. Was never asked by AA to contact QF to sort out. However, I've heard of other airlines who don't want to know you when things go wrong. AA/BA have a good relationship. Can't see too...

    Why no Flagship/First Lounge at DFW?

    It's a very good question, and one that I've thought about too. It may have something to do with there being less international flights out of DFW compared to other flagship locations. On another note, I actually don't mind the Admiral's club at Terminal D, particularly for QF8. I've been...

    Flight Availability/Loadings & Upgrade Probability Help Desk

    Re: Seating Availability/Allocation/Configuration Help Desk Thought I would report back - checked in at ADL 6 hours before the flight. Got to the gate at SYD and received the wonderful red beep. Ended up getting the upgrade to PE. Not sure what happened - possibly a number of passengers didn't...

    Emirates running at 86% capacity on ADL-DXB

    If i didn't live in ADL and have to put up with 10 across to fly to Europe, then i would probably buy the line that it was a brilliant decision by QF. They have lost a significant amount of regard here locally by abandoning INT travellers here in SA. I accept that revenue share may match the...

    Emirates running at 86% capacity on ADL-DXB

    This won't be a surprise for those previously seasoned QF ADL-SIN travelers. Incredibly dumb decision by QF. Adelaide delivers for Emirates » InDaily | Adelaide News

    Sydney to New York

    Due to the snowstorm in February in the N-E, all flights to BOS were cancelled for the day. OW reps were on hand to give out my hotel booking for the night and my rescheduled boarding pass for the next day at the luggage carousel area. I was a WP and another passenger I met was a SG. I am sure...

    Pausing membership due to accident?

    My advice would be to put the request in writing to QF as you have done with VA. Sometimes better than just getting someone who is at the end of a 10 hour shift on the phones.

    Did I make the right call re flight delays

    I always tend to reflect on most decisions that I make to see if I made the right call. Would be interested to hear what other AFF members would have done in similar circumstances for feedback. May make it easier to summarise the circumstances/what I did: Booked on MEL-SYD-DFW-BOS. Day...

    Best economy seats on QF 747 (and which 747 variant will QF fly to DFW)

    After my recent SYD-DFW flight, I must say that 43K really is a great seat. Advantage of good legroom with the bulkhead and the window to rest on. If you like the aisle D/G have a little more leg room. Originally had row 70 for the way home, but after having such a good experience on way over, I...
