Back when Virgin Blue did the first row of economy as a kind of a poor excuse for a premium economy. i was on a flight from Perth to melbourne. it was back when they had live to air TV. Foxtel. economy had to pay for it but if you were booked in the Y+ it was free. To pay, you just swiped your...

My daughter is moving to Weipa and I am driving her car up for her as far as Cairns. Needed a one-way flight back to Melbourne and managed to snag the Saturday A330 for $260 and got a points upgrade (27,000) to J on June 1. The best thing is I have no car at the end and can imbibe.

Well I made the thread to garner opinions and it has certainly done that. I've decided to answer honestly. media: sports writer. i have literally just written up a 650 word story for opening round of netball down here and will do footy tomorrow.

After some heavy thinking, I think I’m just going to apply for the tourist vis, put media or company employee as my workforce and sports writer as my job. no lies and whatever happens, happens.

Thanks heaps. or I could just do Beijing this time in four to six days and then save Shanghai and others for another time? would give me time in South Korea to go to Busan as well as Seoul.

Just an update on this. i could potentially use the 144 hour transit visa and just rescedule my itinerary to fit inside 6 days. I haven’t booked a flight to Seoul or Chinese accommodation yet. would the 144 hour transit visa be better?

I’m not going until January so I have a bit of time to figure something out. it’s got me all bothered though.

I would be able to satisfy those requirements of not visiting those places as I’d have everything booked by the time the time the visa process rolls around. your info was helpful. Thank you 1711610975 Also although I am a journalist I am technically the editor of two papers, so I could perhaps...

I’m spending four days in Beijing and then getting 5he high speed rail to Shanghai for four days and then flying out to Seoul from Shanghai so I don’t think the transit visa will cut it.

I’m toying with the idea of putting copy writer and with the help of the editor in chief if they call her to say I just do real estate stories etc. i have already booked the flight and it’s non refundable so that was my first mistake. oh and a google search would give my game away completely. i...

I searched for an answer everywhere but couldn’t find one. ‘I’m heading to china early next year as part of a two week trip to China (of course), South Korea and Japan. I am a journalist. with the visa application form asking for my occupation, do I tell the truth? I will not be working during...

Nice view though.

Yeah it didn’t bother me. I thought I could have had that extra wine in a plastic cup though and the reason was a bit ordinary. we were still 30 minutes away from landing.

Wife got upgraded from Y to J on ADL-SYD and then QF3 from SYD-AKL and then AKL-JFK FOR 97,000 points despite only being Bronze status.

She was really nice, but they were very busy. Full cabin. i should have ordered 2 wines. One for me and one for her.

VA1333 HBA-MEL Friday March 22 7.45pm Cabin manager Laura was lovely, but overall the service was lacklustre. Was a full J cabin although several chose not to eat. Offered sparkling wine or water before departure but it never eventuated. When I asked once the seatbelt was off, the reason was...

First time in J with Rex. In fact first time with Rex. noon Mel-Hba ZL961 loved the lemon in the sparkling water pre-take off. choice of hot meal of polenta or a cold meal of cured meats etc. went the polenta and it was fabulous. the warm bread roll was a fabulous touch. lucky I like polenta...

Merlot is the Great Northern of wines. there’s no point.

This is still a thing? I don’t have a middle name. Surely that couldn’t be the obstacle?

HBA-MEL 15/3/2024 VA1333 8.45pm two choices, both were salads. i found this to be pretty unsatisfying. cabin manager Lucy was great.
