    Thru-check luggage

    Hey guys, an entirely 'hypothetical' question of course: If I was to book a one way ticket that went SYD-BKK-FRA(TG J)-Central Asia (LH J), that had a 7.5hr transit in FRA, do you think I'd have any issues only checking my bags through to FRA instead of the Central Asian airport? Would be...

    Sydney to Guam the long way

    Had a look into the diving trips, but not really my thing - prefer more of a museum, food, roadtrip kind of holiday! Paid $161 a night all inclusive for the Hilton.

The UA leg HKG-GUM (dated 737, projector IFE, US Domestic First class seats...

    Sydney to Guam the long way

    I promised to do a trip report on my latest USDM redemption of SYD-BKK-HKG (TG) HKG-GUM-HKG (UA) HKG-BKK-SYD (TG) (almost all in first, and for just 40,000 miles). I apologise for the lack of extensive photography on the Thai Airways legs... the almost endless supply of Dom and caviar was my...

    US Dividend Miles - post your SUCCESSFUL award bookings here.

    The first five agents inputted my flights, verified that the seats were available, then said 'and I'll check just that that's legal' (some figured it out themselves, others called the ticketing desk), and I politely ended the call. Awkward moment when I got No 2 agent again on No 5 call. No 6...

    Done4 ticketing in RUH

    The oneworld tool won't let you pay online for departures ex RUH. You need to contact the local airline office of your first departing airline (likely either RJ or BA) and quote your booking reference in order to make payment.

    Turkish Airlines for Australia

    Agree it's ridiculous, but 'Eurobusiness' is a fairly standard phenomenom across most Euro carriers unfortunately.

    Turkish Airlines for Australia

    Calm down prozac - before you left, did you ever do any research on what the 'Euro Business' product is? Fly practically any carrier intra-Europe in J and you'll be experiencing the same thing as what you did on TK.

    HKG transit - checked baggage advice

    QF agent that advised this. If it was a case of paying the "Hong Kong immigration tax/fees"... I'm probably thinking it might just be worth rechecking bags.

    HKG transit - checked baggage advice

    Hi AFFers! I've tried to search around for info relating to this, but I can't seem to find it. Basically, I've just rerouted an existing QANTAS booking SYD-LHR-SYD to SYD-LHR//FCO-HKG-SYD (with a 12 or so hour layover in HKG). Whilst changing the itinerary over the phone, the agent...

    [fare gone] Yangon to New York, London etc. R/T in Business under $850

    @BensAdventures, I've decided to give in to the illogical voices in my head that say book it... Apparently an airside transfer is possible in JED if your connecting flight is within a few hours. I'm already in SIN for the dates I've booked, so I'll tack on a cheap flight from JED to IST or...

    It seems the DL fare's gone. There's one more ex-RGN fare still available that I can see - RGN-KUL-JED-KUL-RGN in J for around GBP85 on almost all dates. Available on opodo.co.uk or cheapoair.com. Flights are with MAS and SV.

    [fare gone] Yangon to New York, London etc. R/T in Business under $850

    Re: [fare gone] Yangon to New York, London etc. R/T in C < $800 Couldn't agree more with Burmans​ - the Australian lady who processes the visas was incredibly helpful when I got mine through the Canberra embassy in April. Via registered post, the entire process took around 20 days from posting...
