According to The Scotsman, Etihad will no longer fly to Edinburgh as of October. This may be because of Hainan Airlines flying to Edinburgh from the 12th of June. Also China Airlines may be joining them in flying to Edinburgh, but not confirmed yet. This would mean that Etihad's profit from Y...

Hi All Just wondering if anybody has been on QR lately. If so what are the passenger loadings like. After the Middle East tantrums of late, I'm interested to get some idea. We are one trip to EDI from Silver, and I want to travel on the upper deck of the A380 out of Melb.

Has anybody had any experience with regards to a paid upgrade at the desk. I believe that it is done or can be done. :confused::confused:

The big question is, should Dalescott & Mrs Dalescott jump ship from ANZ black CC. Get a better deal else where or stay put and see what ANZ roll out. The loss of the Amex Black card is making Dalescott very unhappy. What does everybody think???

Two questions for the clever people. I have booked directly with Qatar to Edinburgh. Do you need to put your full name in when you book. I only put first and last names?? Also they didn't ask for our passport details, is this the norm. I am Silver with QF, Mrs Dalescott has no FF memberships...

Hi All, As we are using CX regularly, I have decided that we will get Asia Miles Membership. But like a lot of Aussies we have ANZ Qantas credit cards, but I would like to get CC's that go towards the Asia Miles. Are there any suggestions that people can offer. I have had a look at the internet...

Can anybody tell me if CX are still running their upgrade auction that they ran last year. Are they going to reintroduce it, I have had a look but can't find any information on what has happened.

It's a question of ??? Should Mrs Dalescott and I go PE with CX or QF, or do we go J with CZ or MU or for that matter RB. Is PE worth the money, I thought after the last trip to EU, NO. But the cost of airfares, and with retirement couple of years away, well I am thinking about it. So is it PE...
