Similar problem, have a redemption booked and received the dreaded flight cancelled for operational reasons email, with a connecting flight moved the following day. Went online, to manage the booking, can't do anything unless I "Accept" the new schedule. I called SQ twice, both times only to...

I made a return redemption booking, outbound confirmed but return leg waitlisted. Can I either change the return leg origin or just cancel the return leg and book a new one way return while keeping the original outbound?

Hi All, anyone done an express PCR test in Singapore? I have to go to Singapore for meetings so will only be on ground for as long as necessary (say 2 / 2.5 days). I would like to avoid needing to have 2 RAT tests in that time and instead have one PCR test. Say I arrive in the evening Day 1...

This reminds me of the time I accidentally left some money in the front pocket (locked) of my suitcase and checked it in for a flight in Busan, Korea, only to collect it in Seoul with the front flap flapping in the breeze and the cash missing! On topic, regarding the article, and the comments...

On QF7 last week in Y I had a curious situation arise, I wondered what people think. Light load, as usual for long haul Y either before or just after the seatbelt sign went off many pax moved around into vacant seats/rows. Lucky for me, I wss one of two people in the middle row of 4 on the...

My original thought - how do I avoid it? Thus the LAX connection idea. However, I decided I don't need the stress for 13 hours on the flight to LAX waiting to see if we arrive on time or not. Recent arrival times for QF15 are all over the shop and 3 out of 7 were more than 15 minutes late. At...

Thanks both Daver6 & justinbrett, for your feedback on the trip, and the opinions about the 787 vs 380. This is what I love about this site! Via SYD it is. Cheers peakhour

QFF Faithful I'm heading to Dallas from Brisbane this weekend on Qantas. I've 2 options - to go via LAX on the 787 or via SYD on the 380, both in Y. Departure time is similar 9:05AM vs 10:10AM and arrival is also similar around 1PM. Catch is both have tight transit's, <2hrs in SYD and 2hrs...

I just got off the phone with Krisflyer who told me that it will take 2 to 4 weeks for the points I transferred 3 days ago to hit my account?!? Has anyone had experience transferring from Altitude to Krisflyer and how long did it take?

I got an op-up 2 weeks back sin to bne from y to j as a VA SG. Not the same as J to F but still, in over 100 SQ flights (most as SQ SG) it was the first op-up and very welcome indeed!

For sure. How does Joe Public know that though? The airline should not be putting the pax in the situation where the chance of missing the connection is so high. It's easy for us all to sit here and say so having had the experience. Surely in 2017 a customer can expect just a little...

Agree. Example the much maligned kfeg lounges in Singapore. I don't love them and sometimes bypass them. However this week I will pass through Changi 4 times including one stopover for 7 hours, and I was there last week. The terminals don't hold much interest, and often either I have work to...

I've done a sunlight stopover in Singapore many many times on the way through. Land between 3-3:30pm, through immigration, taxi to Clarke Quay. Back to Changi T2 by 7:30pm with plenty of time to spare for 8:25pm departure. All SQ on a single ticket of course. Bit of sunshine and is a welcome...

Thanks All So at the least we all agree, publishing a fare with a 65 minute connection is ambitious at best. As I mentioned, no complaints re the service, I was put onto the earlier connecting flight when I asked. Which I only knew to do, since I have done BNE-SYD-SOMEWHERE a few, maybe 15...

Yes I had to arrive in Tokyo this morning for a meeting later today and other commitments meant I had to depart after yesterday's 10:55AM direct flight so the connection via Sydney was most practical to meet my schedule. Am taking the direct flight home.

Thanks for the info, yes all one PNR BNE-HND via SYD booked on QF website.

Hi All I just did the domestic to international transfer in Sydney again last night on my way to Tokyo. This time I had someone book it for me online and they selected a connection that had only 1:05hrs between flights. Apparently the other option available was 2:05hrs (what I would...

139 stamps/visas in my full Nxx_xx_x that I renewed yesterday after 4.5 years. I'll miss the easy to remember number for sure when filling out departure amd arrival cards!

Thank you!

Hi All I am visiting Indonesia (Surabaya) for the first time next week. I read the visa information for Australian passports online, and it's not spelled out clearly whether visa free status applies to business trips of less than 30 days. I rang the consulate and they said as long as I have...
