SQ, First Suites, A380 all the way. Service, food and wines excellent. Suites cabin wonderful, especially when set up as a double. Avoid Book the Cook - I have never had a top meal off this gimmick. But from the inflight menu (which you can check out online about 2-4 weeks in advance, the...

I'm VA Platinum top 1% as well, always travel J. Never get welcomed onto plane by name (that seems to be reserved for MEN IN SUITS), but most times by name once service begins. Partner has received complimentary annual VP twice. Service and food much better than I remember Qantas ever being...

Please excuse my ignorance. How could you see award availability online (before you phoned)?

Bogan is as bogan does.

I'm QFF Lifetime Gold and points dribble into this account from some credit card obligation. I'm KFF Elite Silver. I have never looked back since moving to Virgin Australia some years ago. I accrue KF points by transferring points from VA (VA flights and Amex points to VA), and doing some...

Oh Oh dear. I’m texting this (free of course) mid-air from SIA’s new A380 First Class suites on the way to Singapore. Joyce is in denial. The SIA food, service and hard product leave WF for dead. Some of the worst and most pitiful First food I’ve ever had was on a QF flight to Changi from...

Qantas points ticket search tonight. MEL to JFK 14 June 2020 offered as J points ticket, as follows: MEL -> PER in J on QF783 PER -> SYD in Y on QF568 SYD -> LAX in Y on QF11 LAX -> JFK in Y on QF11. I guess this is how you cook the stats on the number of international J points tickets...

Max. I had similar multiple experiences with Qantas even when I was a Platinum FF. Like you, I eventually gave up and went to Virgin where they status matched me on request and over the years since I have never looked back. The Virgin business product is now very, very good. Direct flights to...

I have been Velocity Platinum for 4 years. Last year I secured a couple of hundred more tier credits than I needed to retain Platinum. VFF gave my domestic partner a fully-functioning Platinum membership for free (which will then scale down to gold and bronze over the years).

I had a very similar experience. I had been a QFF for 15 years, mostly Gold, Platinum for about 5 years and P1 for a year. Just got annoyed with the slapdash domestic customer service in the 2000s, and the difficulty getting international reward seats once I slipped out of P1, having secured...

Have been trying to book for JULY 2014 two QFF redemptions on EK: IST-DBX in J and DBX-HKG in F. Got the first leg but on a flight 3 hours earlier (leaving an almost 6 hour layover instead of 3 hours). No redemption seats released at all for second leg. Being Platinum One (and 2,000,000...

QF93 in F on 27 April - Kylie Minogue (chatted briefly), and Eric Bana

Thanks, Ric.

I've just stumbled on this site. Gobsmacked by the knowledge and experience. Can anyone recommend a good limo service from JFK to midtown Manhattan. I'll be there May this year. (Not interested in a stretch.) Thanks in advance.
