Prelude 1022: Hi, I received a notification of a schedule change to a flight as part of a classic award booking. I’m calling because a couple of flights on Malaysian and Sri Lankan have dropped off my booking because it wasn’t reticketed in time. Agent 1: Sure I can look into that for you...

So I'm just about to board QF2060 which I checked in for soon after OLCI opened. Q400 service that looks moderately loaded - maybe 60% of seats filled according to seat map. I had 6D until 5 minutes ago and just looked at the seat map to see if 6C was still vacant. Lo and behold I've been...

I've been flying fairly regularly throughout the pandemic. Today as I was exiting T3 in Sydney I noticed that the old biplane replica that used to live landslide at the eastern end of the departure level isn't there anymore. Maybe it disappeared ages ago and I'm just not very observant...but...

Apologies if there's already a thread on this and I'm late to the party... I was just daydreaming of overseas travel and thought I'd poke around to see whether I could score hypothetical J seats to Malé some time early next year...not with the intent of actually booking while we have zero...

I flew on a lunchtime flight yesterday from BNK-SYD. The Ballina route is served by a combo of Q-Link and mainline. Yesterday’s 1pm QF1161 (737 mainline) offering in Y was a bottle of water and a cookie. No choice of drinks, no tea or coffee and just a cookie. I certainly wouldn’t expect a full...

Due to the cancellation of my OOL flight tonight and being shunted to a much later BNE flight, I was kicking up my heels in the cough end QP for a few hours when all of a sudden there was commotion from behind the partition in the J lounge. Commotion was followed by ever so polite announcements...

I'm looking at a trip to Europe mid 2018 and in the lead up from time to time have been looking at award availability in First as far as DXB for myself and the other half. It'll be his first time in first. A few months ago, I was fairly surprised to see a smattering of days with 2 F award...

Hello Brainstrust. I'm heading to LHR tomorrow on TG in first class and very much looking forward to the SYD SQ First lounge (armed with the *A rules in case the dragons try to send me to the NZ lounge) and even more looking forward to the golf-cart-and-massage extravaganza during the BKK...

Forgive the somewhat noob questions... 1) Boyf & I are flying to Noumea on 3 May on a QF flight number operated by Aircalin. Boyf is QF SG, so I guess we just roll up to QF J checkin rather than going to the Aircalin counters right? 2) Does T-80 work on codeshares? We were assigned row 8 which...

Hi all, Sorry if this has been discussed before. From a quick search I couldn't see any relevant, recent threads.... Thanks to discovering the T-80 quirk on AFF, in the past as a lowly PS I've always managed to be able to snag up to about row 6 or 7 on a 737 and 26 or so on the 767...

Ok, total noob question: Due to a particularly a long day of meetings in MEL next Friday, and an anticipated long wait at the airport for a latish flight (so that I could get a QF fare within company policy to avoid having to put up with DJ theatrics - I can't tell the difference between the DJ...

Off to AKL on a cheap LAN J fare status run/long weekend tomorrow and just saw on the Avis NZ website deals section that they have relocation specials from either Auckland or Christchurch airports to CBD locations. 19 New Zealand Pesos for 24 hours with enough free km to get into town and petrol...

I've been lurking and making the odd post for a few months, but really ought to say hello...and show off how savvy I'm becomming with the lingo :p Just ticked over to PS this week which of course isn't a big deal on here among the WPs and all, but still a nice feeling to know the OLCI is now...
