    Qantas Classic awards availability - 1 year out

    I've just been looking at availability for 2 x SYD - FCO return (J class) in Apr 2013. What surprised me is that only CX is coming up. Is this likely to be because I have low status or are QF and BA cutting back on award seats. Regards David

    Kulula Air - South Africa

    Anyone had experience of flying with the budget priced Kulula in South Africa? I'm looking at a flight from Durban to Johannesburg and it would be convenient to fly into Lanseria airport rather than O R Tambo. It looks like only Kulula use that airport. Thanks David M
