These days I drive a Skoda Octavia RS Wagon. Most recent in a long line of cars and one Ford Ranger.

In the pre-covid days flying with SQ as a VA Platinum got you lounge access to the Kris Gold lounge which didn't have showers. The Silver Kris lounge was strictly for SQ with status or if you were flying business. Not sure what it's like now and sorry but no suggestions for a shower plan B. I...

So I should leave my QFF number on the EK booking and be assured of lounge access ?

Hi all, I am flying to Brussels with EK (EK metal and flight number, booked on EK) first leg is MEL/DXB in PE and DXB/BRU in Y. At present I have my QFF number on the booking to ensure I can enter the lounges. My question is, if use my new Emirates Skywards number on the booking can I produce my...

Thanks for the reply. Have you used it for high speed trains as well ?

I need to book flights from Hong Kong to Shanghai (SHA) and another from Shanghai (SHA) to Guangzhou (CAN). Has anyone recently done this using the Trip app? I used to use this app when it was known as Ctrip without any issues but I am interested in anyone's recent (2023) experiences. For...

Please excuse this question, however like a lot of people I am a bit rusty on the nuances of earning QF status and FF points on partner airlines and in particular on Qatar (QR). As a QF WP I am booking BNE - IST return on the QR website and am attempting to understand if I will earn any QF...

I wasnt aware of this. Sorry to the OP for misleading you.

Thanks for the reply !

I am little confused with Qantas Club access when flying international economy with QF, as a Bronze FF (soon to be silver) with Qantas Club membership can I access the BNE QC and Hong Kong Qantas Clubs ? Cheers Dave.

1. I don't remember on the A330 and haven't flown on a 777 with them 2. It's ok....nothing special but enough movies to keep me occupied from BNE to CAN and return a couple of times. 3. CAN isn't great at all, remember if you plan to leave the airport or the transit area you will need a visa...

I wouldn't take this advice as gospel as this has never worked for me nor has using 90210 or any other US Post code that I could remember, even the code of the town I filling up in. Cheers, Dave.

Excuse my ignorance here, I am booking a trip on Cathay via their website and if I enter my QFF number will I earn status credits and points (assuming I have eligible flights). I am trying to avoid joining another FF program. Cheers Dave.

I have been a loyal VA user for many years, going back to the "Blue Room" days etc. During that time I have had to plead with two employers to let me use VA over QF when QF has been company policy. Well I guess it's time to change, these latest changes to VFF will impact me, as I have to book...

I am looking at travelling to HK in April with my son (19yo) and we have agreed that sharing a room is not going to work. If anyone has had experience with 2 bedroom suites or apartments in HK they can recommend it would be greatly appreciated. Cheers Dave.

Some of the meetings I have sat though over there......the lead bullets would be preferable ! Cheers Dave.

Its much better than the China Southern lounges in CAN or SHA

Hmmm good point I hadn't thought of, maybe I will book codeshare again as it's holiday trip I am planning so changes shouldn't be required. Cheers Dave.

Thank you Comoman, I have the required flight sectors for maintaining gold, just need SC's so I think this time I will book via SQ and see how pans out. Cheers Dave.

I flew Dragon Air from HGK to Taiwan in April and it was fine. I have never used Hong Kong air. Cheers Dave.
