That's it. From someone who travels down the back all the time - SYD-JFK every couple of months - this is the beginning and end of the answer. Re all the other advice, the only bit I disagree with is the aisle seat. I have a strong bladder but I'm a light sleeper. Being clambered over by...

Ouch, OK, I stand chastised. :oops: I thought the FF program was to ID and reward the loyalty of those who put their BIS most often. I'll pull my head in.

I've just gone from Bronze to Silver and now to Gold in six months, and, so far, have nothing to show for it except different coloured plastic in my wallet. I fly for business quite a lot, but it's my own business and in a big growth phase, which constrains my ability to buy anything other than...

Office for Mac 2011 is a quantum leap from 2008, if anyone's wondering whether to upgrade. Heaps faster and no time spent watching the beach ball at all. :D My advice is to upgrade right away.

Amen to that. There should be a message in the safety routine "please check with the pax behind you before reclining your seat".

I'm a QF Silver FF and pay my own way. Exit row is great value when it's your own money. Toilet proximity is more of an issue on the A380, where the one toilet door opens in a way that's almost designed to bathe you in light during the night. Not so much an issue on the A330. Exit rows aren't...

Thanks. I can see these for domestic travel, but I don't get the same options when booking international. When booking SYD-LAX-JFK, for example, there is no PE option.

Hi everyone, here's another dumb newbie question: where should I be making my QF bookings? I have always used the QF site, but that doesn't seem to feature the upgradeable fares - only the Sale fares, which don't qualify. Nor do I see PE fares when booking for the US. I'm a recent Silver FF...

Excellent stuff! Thank you both so much! :D:D:D

Thanks very much guys! ddron, where do you see the SCs on the AA site?

BTW, this is a business trip, but it's my business, so I'm paying :(

Thanks. This is what I was hoping for. One supplementary question: I can simply route via various US airports and not actually stop over, correct? Thanks again. This community is great! :)

Hi I have to do the SYD-LAX-JFK run every couple of months. I have been travelling QF11/107/108/12, stopping over in LA in both directions. Looking at some of the posts here (although they're a bit old), it appears I could get more SCs for this run if I route it differently and I was wondering...

Thanks. As a fellow newbie, I found this post useful. Is this basic info kept somewhere? Like the OP, I've been trawling lots of older posts and wondering if the info is still accurate. Cheers

Thanks, John. Good advice! :)

Hi everyone. This is my first post. Very interesting forum. I'm a newbie, currently QF FF Bronze, who has recently started to fly a lot. I have done 2 x SYD-LAX-JFK-LAX-SYD in Economy since April. As it's my own business and we're still in high growth phase, I need to conserve cash and max...
