So I see I asked this type of question back in 2017 and no response 😂. Trying again. I'll preempt this by saying that I'm fully aware that seeing Japan by cruise is not the best way of seeing the country I'll get that out of the way. So, I'd like some input into which cruise is best, granted...

It's paywalled for me and I can't find it anywhere, so does anyone know which airline just pulled out of Adelaide the day after EK announced their return? It's not like we have that many to start with anyway!

Weirdest experience. Remember those heady days of parity when we could and did buy at ease from US and use a shipping service, in my case , MyUS? I haven’t used them for so long but still had an address inbox. A few days ago I received an email saying they’d received my parcel and had to do an...

Literally and figuratively. With son moving to the UK and getting married there, in the midst of Covid, as kids are in the habit of doing, it's been three years since we celebrated Christmas with him and his family. So when they married we determined that Christmas in 18 months time it is. And...

We have scored a 3am flight out of Dubai to Sin. We are OWE so the F lounge awaits. Could we expect to checkin around 10pm? Tx.

So we have had the pleasure of (once again) staying at the Intercontinental Bali on Jimbaran Bay. Last time was five years ago but just as a stopover on our way to UK, which we found was a cheap way to book Qatar DPS - Doha - LHR. This time we had the pleasure 🤣 of flying Qantas from Adelaide...

Original Title: Anyone care to guess why this happened today? A new way forward - err backwards for Qantas?Waiting on plane now 20 minutes late for 2 pilots (passengers) who may or may not be planning to board. Sigh.

Am looking at new carry on luggage for December and like the look of July. The dimensions are 54cm H x 36cm W x 22cm D (24.5cm D when expanded). But it seems this exceeds the dimensions. Flying in J so have been searching Dr google but hoping for first hand experience here. July is popular...

Asking for a friend. 😀. Am hedging my bets on a Jetstar 😳 service failure on a direct and daytime flight from DPS to Adl with a pre booked Qantas flight via Melbourne but with a night flight as the return trip. Which we loathe. Our Jetstar flight will arrive back 5 hours in Oz before the...

I've posed this question in the TR but asking for more general opinions here as to whether I'm off base. We had a late night flight last night in MAS in J on points, thankfully. The flight length was 7 hours tops. Departed late at 11pm. . I decided to go to sleep immediately after seat belt...

After several Covid cancellations it seems we might just get to see another bucket list trip to Egypt, Jordan and Israel. Originally planned as a Nile River cruise with extensions which would afford easier access to the Valley of the Kings and Queens, Petra and Israel, that cruise was Covid...

Ok so plans have to change. Today learnt that KLM had changed our flights - to arrive in KL 24 hours earlier than we'd booked. We'd already factored in a night stay at Sama Sama in a Premier as the flights to Australia have different PNR and we wanted to have a buffer. That was a night and most...

Received a phone call this afternoon stating that as I was a Virgin Business Customer I would receive a $50 voucher to be redeemed online. When I said I wasn’t such a customer they hung up. Scam?

Any Samsung users caught up with the update issue? If not, just don't update yet.

Just looking for input about shore excursions for Luxor, on an ocean cruise in May. I'm not looking for opinions as to whether this is the best way to see Egypt, we know it isn't but currently the only option we have. So 1. Visit what many believe to be the largest temple ever built, Luxor’s...

Have booked an Award fare for December next year, Adelaide - Mel - Dubai, that has a 10 hour layover in Melbourne. I presume as we transit from domestic to International we can exit and spend the night in a Hotel? And presuming that luggage can be checked through to DXB from Adelaide. Any issues...

Help needed to get the best rate on obtaining USD in SA but for payment in cash of tours in the Middle East who prefer US currency. If I use a credit card it's a 3% surcharge but maybe using Latitude card that might be a better option than getting USD at our horrid exchange rate? Flying out of...

Grrr. Ready to make an award booking. I'm hoping this isn't hack number 3. (Optus, credit card for $9000 and ????). Cannot log in. Cannot change pin. When I call I give my number I don't get asked for pin. I'm on my second call. I'm not getting anywhere. Two offsite calls.

Just for one person. I just need these details in a PM/conversation. First in gets it. Must be linked to a Qantas flight prior.

Yowsers. My ANZ credit card just got hacked. Only reason I knew was a text message at 1.30 pm purporting to be from ANZ with a OTP for an Officeworks transaction for $1500 online. Then I got another text. For KMart for $489. Looked in my app and saw two pending transactions, one for Bunnings for...
