    SQ has JQ in its target sites with new low cost airline

    SQ already has a "LCC" in Silk Air so why would it bother with another one?

    Thanks for that. I thought it would be on the website too. I'll give them a call.

    TRS hours at SYD

    Can anybody tell me what time the Tourist Refund Scheme office at SYD opens? I have an 06.30 flight to AKL and I want to reclaim the GST on a present I'm taking to a friend in NZ. TIA

    International connection time at AKL

    I live in Sydney and I have to go for a short visit to Rome next month. If I use QF from SYD it wil cost me A$9,200 in J AND I'll have to go via the zoo that they persist in calling an airport, i.e. LHR. If I use CX SYD-FCO it's A$8,100 and I miss out LHR. However, by going AKL-FCO on CX the...

    One World Global Explorer Price Hike

    On the subject of inconsistency, why is SYD domestic the only airport I've travelled through where my R M Williams boots set off the scanner? It doesn't happen at SYD international, MEL, BNE, ADL, PER, AKL, HKG, SIN, all airports through which I travel regularly, and there are many more where...

    Dual Passports AUS/UK

    Just for the record, there's no such thing as an "English" passport. I presume you mean a "UK" or "British" passport. The UK consists of 4 countries - Scotland, England, Wales and Northern Ireland - and the Scots, Welsh and Irish get heartily sick of the assumption that British equals English...

    QF Op-up 'Blacklist'

    Funnily enough, although being on FlyerTalk for years, I've only recently discovered AFF so this is my first post. I joined QFF 10 years ago when I moved from HKG to AKL, having had CX Gold for about 15 years before that. Got WP in the first 6 months of membership and have been WP ever since. In...
