    No SC's for MH flights has cost me WP!!! What gives?

    I haven't kept the same impaccable records that many in this community do, so now I can't see my full history. But I'm pretty sure it goes roughly like this... 2009 - gold 2010 - cruised to WP with over 2400 SC's 2011 - just under WP but comp upgrade 2012 - made it to WP on my own with about...

    No SC's for MH flights has cost me WP!!! What gives?

    I've been WP for maybe 4 years. I have had a comp to retain WP once befor - after my first WP year. But I was well short and held no hope. Was surprised when I got the letter. And so this time after 4 years to be so short and have assumed it was going to happen based on these MH flights, pretty...

    No SC's for MH flights has cost me WP!!! What gives?

    Econ on an MH basic fare. Researched on the web, but booked via their mobile site. My FF numbers appear on my booking confirmation. I had no rpoblem getting in the FLounge in BKK and KUL. So I'm completely puzzled.

    No SC's for MH flights has cost me WP!!! What gives?

    Maybe someone can help me here. On Nov 1st my points were reset back to zero. I had 1170 meaning that I was just 30 short of reaining WP. But heres the killer.... back in August I did a BKK-KUL return trip on MH. I checked the QF sight and all indiations are that I should have received 15 pts...

    How to best utilise concierge services

    I agree - they are useless. Internet access these days has made these concierge services redundant. If there is a special show or restaurant thats booked out then maybe they could help, but generally I find a local prepaid 3G SIM card is for more valuable for researching and making hotel...

    Malaysian Airlines Business Class Seats Mel-KL-LHR return any info please

    I lived in KL for a few years and flew Malaysian business every couple of months (even managed a few flights in F). Excellent service. I'm sure you wont be dissappointed. In terms of seating the 777 has so much leg room it really doesn't matter where you sit. On the 747 the upper deck is the...

    How much better is Qantas Platinum than Gold?

    November 1 - Qualified WP December 6 - QF6 SIN-SYD was changed from 2 class to 3 class metal. Was upgraded from J to F (seat only - service was still J) along WITH travelling companion. For the lie flat seat over the Skybed on a 744 - worth it. The difference in food between J and F is...

    Please restore my faith in Qantas

    Don't know about SYD/MEL. They use QP's in BNE and ADL. Of all the QP's I find ADL is one of the most respectable. New, large and comfortable.

    Please restore my faith in Qantas

    I absolutely appreciate what your saying. That's why I ALWAYS flew QF in Aus (and international). I'm about to jump on QF 82 to Adelaide and hope it impresses me, coz the MH 777 service is pretty damn good. I've never seen so much legroom before! And the cabin staff are sensational. I'm doing...

    Please restore my faith in Qantas

    I've been to SYD International business lounge and it's not much better than SIN, just a little bigger. I know the F lounge is the "flagship", but I was only in the MH, short haul bus lounge and while it's small, it makes QF look "CHEAP". Don't get me wrong, I'm a QF devotee. I flew QF for...

    Please restore my faith in Qantas

    I'm in the Singapore QP right now, having flown in from KUL. And frankly QF could learn a lot from their Asian neighbours. The short haul lounge in KUL in simply beautiful. I enjoyed some nice champagne at the Laksa/noodle bar after having a sensational 50 min massage. Here in the QP - it's...

    BNE to KUL on MH

    I'm flying to KL this week on Malaysia Air in J class. Can anyone help me out with a couple of questions 1. Do MH still use the Q-lounge at BNE International? 2. As I'll be on an overnight flight I'd like to use the arrivals lounge at the other end. Never used one before. How does it work...

    Q Business Lounges (MEL, SYD, BNE)

    That bites. I missed it by a week. I flew SYD-BNE-DRW last week in J and was hoping they would be open (hence the original post). Now I guess this means that if I walk in to the QP, get an ODU I can then walk next door in to the J lounge.

    They may not have enough money to keep flying planes, but it's good to know there's plenty in the kitty for new lounges.:p

    Jetstar *class Mel to HNL - what class Mel to Syd leg

    Details below are from my activity statement. While the top flight shows the QF number, it was booked as a J* round trip. The details for this flight didn't show up on my account so I had to submit a claim. As you can see 60 SC's for flights between ADL - SYD. 30 OCT 07 QF 740 BUSINESS 30OCT07...

    Jetstar *class Mel to HNL - what class Mel to Syd leg

    Yes, you do get J SC's and pts. Blackswan - Note that the leg on QF metal only applies if it shows as being a QF flight when you book on the J* website. When booking the connections it'll usually show a few options, if you book *Class and pick a QF connection you'll be in J. And yes the costs...

    Jetstar *class Mel to HNL - what class Mel to Syd leg

    I had the same experience with ADL - HKT (coughet). I was told the whole way through that it would be Y class on the QF leg from ADL to SYD, but figured I was better off in Y on QF than in Y on J*. Pleased when we got to the airport and found we were in J - was without a doubt the best way to...

    xONE4 start point???

    I know a lot of forum members start their xONEx from NRT, and I understand there a 3 main reasons for this.. 1. Cost - exchange rate lowers the ticket price 2. AA - buy through a AA and take advantage of lower fuel taxes etc. 3. Ability to separate journey in to distinct sections. I.e...
