    QF Business or BA Club World?

    Thanks to all for their input. As irony would have it, a direct EK flight just became available today despite nothing being available for the past month so I've cancelled the original flights (I ended up going with the BA option for the very reasons dajop provided) and paid the change fee to do...

    QF Business or BA Club World?

    Thanks everyone for your responses. I have to admit that I was quite curious about how the Club World product would stack up against Qantas J but it seems like everyone is of the same opinion. The only thing I need to weigh up now is whether it's more convenient to transfer at SYD or BNE. Is 1hr...

    QF Business or BA Club World?

    Hi, It's been a while since I've flown on QF so just wanted to get some opinions. I'm redeeming some FF points for a quick trip from SIN-MEL and unfortunately there are no available direct flights for the days I want to fly so my options at the moment are on a QF 747 to Brisbane overnight then...

    thanks all for your replies. Not too fussed about the lounge but being able to get through check-in quickly is a big plus. Cheers.

    Qantas Club Check-in question

    Hi Simo, yep. Can't remember if you can use the Business counter at Changi or whether it's a PE/QP counter but that's the one I mean.

    Qantas Club Check-in question

    Hi, Am a QP member and will be travelling from SIN to PER with the mrs, her aunt and an infant. Just wanted to know if all of us will be able to check-in at the QP counter if I am the only member. Also for lounge access I guess I would only be able to bring in 1 adult guest but the baby should...

    SQ Waitlist clearance timeframe..

    Waitlisted 2 x J seats for SIN-NRT around 2 weeks ago. The website was acting a little funny and my status showed as neither wait listed or confirmed so I rang up to ask what the story was. The lady told me it was still wait listed then proceeded to ask if there was any particular reason why we...

    Mixed class travel question

    Hi all, Just a quick question - hopefully someone can help. Am planning on buying my parents tickets to Vancouver next year from Singapore via Hong Kong. At the moment I'm planning on using Air Canada which uses SQ to go from SIN to HKG before switching to their own plane to continue on to YVR...

    Points Upgrade Question

    Thanks all for your kind replies. Just to confirm, we will be on paid tickets as I am moving from London to Singapore for work, so fingers crossed we will be put on a Qantas A380 flight that will have F availability for upgrades. I have Silver status which isn't much but I guess I should...

    Points Upgrade Question

    Hi all, Just had a quick question regarding the use of points to upgrade. Am due to fly from LHR to SIN next month in J with Mrs Mingster and was thinking about using points to upgrade to F (as it will probably be the only time in my life that I will be able to fly in F). Was just wondering...

    Status Credits on Cathay question

    Ah my mistake. Didn't realise discount economy only earns 0.5pts per mile. Thanks for clearing that up for me. Think that makes my decision a little easier. Thanks again

    Status Credits on Cathay question

    Thanks for the quick reply guys. Appreciate it. Now I just have to weigh up if the extra £170 is worth the 15,000 points and 100 odd Status Credits that I assume I'll get with Economy Save (V)

    Status Credits on Cathay question

    Hi all, Just wondering if someone could help me with a query. Am looking at booking a flight on Cathay from London to Kuala Lumpur via Hong Kong. The cheapest fare at the moment is on Economy Supersaver (Q) which doesn't accrue Asia miles so I guess that means I don't get any Frequent Flyer...

    Grand Hyatt NYC

    stayed there for 5 nights in April 2006. Nothing fancy, thought the room and especially the bathroom was a bit small (but then again had just stayed in a suite at the Beverly Hilton) but the location was pretty good - right on top of Grand Central Station and we just caught the subway...

    Plat Challenge Question

    thanks Dave. Will be flying on QF (i assume via Asia) so I guess it won't qualify as an AA codeshare.

    Plat Challenge Question

    Hi all, fairly new to the site so please excuse me if I don't use the right acronyms. Was just looking for some of your opinions on the following situation. I'm about 30 SC away from qualifying for Silver status with QFF and have a business class flight from Syd-London coming up shortly. Is it...
