    Hi kids, Suprised I can't find an answer to this, or maybe its obvious, but I've just booked ADL/AKL/LAX return for the 3 of us at a pretty ridiculous price, I think it was the max saver or something. Anyhoo, of course we get full service on the long haul AKL/LAX but what happens on the ADL/AUK...

    Lounges in Adelaide

    Hi guys, With EK coming into Adelaide soon (with a 3 class including F service) what are peoples thoughts about lounges?

    Hi Guys, After talking up a first class seat I had on a qantas A380 a year back I promised my fiance i'd get her on a flight with me this year.
