    For point 2, you can use checkmytrip.com, plug in your booking number, and you will be able to see the alternate booking number used by Etihad. Works great for Japan Air, American Airlines etc, who use a different PNR for the booking

    Anytime Lounge Access Finishing? [Yes, from 15Aug12]

    VA, this is disappointing. Whichever accountant is responsible for this decision should have thought about consulting at least a small group of premium flyers first. If ATA is being abused by certain individuals, revoke their access. Too many Gold's using it? Give it too Platinum only. Lounge...

    Certainly is taking passengers, Qantaslink flights 6713/6714. As my easlier posts noted, it happens rarely but it does happen.

    QF domestic: "not able to display the seatmap"

    For those who are interested QF713, a Dash 8-200 is currently operating Brisbane to Sydney, returning to Brisbane as QF714. Interesting to note it is only taking 30 & 20 minutes longer for each leg compared to a jet respectively.

    Upgrades to Virgin Business

    Yes, as long as you buy the Flexi fares when purchasing the 2 for 1 on the credit card. I have used Platinum free upgrades as well as points. Very good value when used on coast to coast services.

    *yawn* thread title does not even come close to reflecting the "service" issues I'd hate to think what it takes to make some people truly happy.

    Travel to Munich

    You will find most people have a good grasp of English in that region, more than they will admit. But I would still learn basic greetings and salutations, politeness and making an effort goes a long way in any culture. On a side note, Munich is awesome. One of the only places I could imagine...

    QF domestic: "not able to display the seatmap"

    Hey Serfty, These flights Flight-plan, and fly as QantasLink flights, not sure if that helps your search. Whenever they do fly, the same aircraft will always fly the return leg as well, usually originating & terminating in Brisbane. The last time it happened was last week I am pretty sure, I...
