I have a variety of currency, HKD, USD, TWD, NZD which is gathering dust in a cupboard. I was thinking of converting all to Yen for an upcuming trip to Japan. Would it be better to exchange locally (in Aus) to Yen or change at the airport in Tokyo. (or even at a bank? Thanks FBS

My partner and I are planning to travel SYD-NRT in Jan QF21 and return on QF22. I am considering booking economy and hope to use points to upgrade to J for both of us. Other slightly more expensive option is to book PE and use points for upgrade to J. I am interested in thoughts as to our...

With 140 SC's required to reach WP and expiry tomorrow, I am now in the middle of an SC run. (BNE-MEL-ADL-BRS) with a couple of JASA's on the longer legs. Barring another snap QF grounding I should get WP status before D-Day tomorrow. Thanks to all AFF contributors for making me aware of this...

With 295 SC required to get to WP, I have a double SC offer for HKG flights that expires on May 16 so I plan to do a BNE-HKG return trip within the next 2 weeks. As it is a personal trip, paying for J class is not an option and with only about 25k of FF points JASA may not be an option. I am...

I am approx 350 SC's off WP and have till May 31st to achieve. Have a couple of domestic flights to do before end of May, but thinking It may be worth doing an OS run To get WP. Have registered for the HKG double SC promotion that expires on May 17, however even that may cut it fine unless I fly...
