    Had Poh from masterchef on QF750 today. Some adoring fans of hers were jamming up the desks at Adelaide and I almost didn't get my luggage in on time

    SilverKris Lounge Update

    I've done a bit of searching and apparently the AirNZ lounge doesn't open until 6am in SYD. I'm on SQ212 next month and was hoping to sneak in a breakfast pre-boarding. Are they opening earlier as a result of the sharing that will be going on? I'll likely be through customs around 5am. Cheers

    Famous people seen (or even met) whilst flying or lounging

    had Chris Tucker on QF736 today, with his security and hangers on taking up most of the business class cabin. Interestingly enough, when i was leaving the QP in ADL, i somehow ended up in the middle of the entourage not knowing who any of them were. Had to ask one of the middle aged women who...

    Did anyone else get a double status credits promo today?

    Hey All Well, i finally got the email i've been dreaming about! I fly back and forth ADL-SYD for work each fortnight and had been doing my sums. At my current rate, i was going to miss out on gold by 50 or so SC's. Was planning a business sector or 2 then i got a double status credit email...

    I quite regularly see Erik Thomson ADL-SYD when i'm coming in to work for the week. I imagine he's doing the same.

    What are my chances of getting SQ F tickets redemption as a n00b

    Bingo :) The way i see it, they will have in flight internet by this stage, fine champagne, a place to snooze, top class food on hand. I don't care how long it takes me to get there :P I'd like to get on as many different pieces of Singapore metal as possible though.

    What are my chances of getting SQ F tickets redemption as a n00b

    Hi All I paid for a wedding 2 years back on my Krisflyer Amex + other associated spending so i'm currently in posession of enough points to get my cough SYD-xSIN-xICN-SFO LAX-xNRT-xSIN-SYD in first class. I'm looking to fly in Sept 13 for a "trip to end all trips" - with my boys in Las Vegas...

    Status run idea to take advantage of the Double Status Credits promotion

    grave dig :) I'm up for recalculation and i'm 70sc's short of silver requalification. I've left this as long as possible to see if i was let go another year etc.. but nothing. Next year is going to involve an insane amount of flying (adl-syd-adl once a fortnight), so i'd rather start off on...

    Noise Cancelling Headphones

    have you tried the Nokia BH-905's? You can pick them up rather cheap these days. I've got sennheiser pxc-250's. The battery pack on the cord is a bit of a pain in the cough at times, but theyre nice headphones :)
