    Need some suggestions on flight changes..

    Unfortunately I don't have QF PS and if I was a member of Marco Polo, I'd be the equivalent of their bronze level.

    Need some suggestions on flight changes..

    Hi Oz, I am flying from London Heathrow to Singapore, not Helsinki :) The flight back to SIN is on QF which doesn't bother me much cos I have Qantas Pub membership and I managed to score an exit row seat going to London without having to pay for it so hoping for the same on return.. nearly...

    Need some suggestions on flight changes..

    Oh I am sure the arm rest was gone cos you could see where it was supposed to be attached... Might consider the exit row seat in which case.. I had my laptop but it ran out of juice 1.5hrs from the end of the flight..

    Need some suggestions on flight changes..

    My flight SYD-HKG-SYD on QF is a sale fare which doesn't give me a lot of hope.. My flight with 3K was 4hrs.. I didn't buy these tickets on a sale or cheaply. It was packed and they don't enforce the cabin baggage thing much I noticed.. (thankfully I had enough brains to line up early to...

    Need some suggestions on flight changes..

    Hi everyone, Currently in Iceland but want to deal with this asap.. I flew from SYD-HKG on QF which was fine, the next day I flew HKG-SIN on Jetstar Asia.. there is no way to summerise this other than it was the worst flight I have ever been on. Won't go into details at the moment but looking...

    TRS for goods over $900 - Dive equipment

    I know that you can only claim for goods bought 30 days before.. I just dive most weeks, so by the time I leave it will be still well within 30 days :)

    TRS for goods over $900 - Dive equipment

    nlagalle, so basically they will apply a depreciation to it like they do with the electronics? I have already used these items but want to claim :)

    TRS for goods over $900 - Dive equipment

    I know there's a few threads floating around about TRS but just thought I'd ask anyway.. I am going overseas in 2 weeks. I have dive equipment I am taking with me. I have regulators, computer and BCD. (I may take the BCD with me or may not, cos its kinda big and will take up a lot of space.)...

    Famous people seen (or even met) whilst flying or lounging

    Late last year I was flying to Brisbane for work and the night before I checked in, discovered I had the exit row seat and left it at that. Went to the airport the next day and did the check in booth thing, got my boarding pass only to discover I wasn't in the exit row seat anymore.. (It didn't...

    Hong Kong stopover on the way to London

    Hi everyone, As per my previous thread about SYD-LHR.. I have decided to fly Cathay Pacific as I can save myself at least $700 at the moment instead of flying QF, which will allow me to get my return flights plus Iceland flights for less than $2800. But anyway, my questions are.. what is the...

    Flying to London.. QF, Cathay or Thai in economy + flying to Iceland..

    Good morning, Thanks for the suggestions deejo and markis.. but those dates are not suitable for me (I have a thesis to hand in at the beginning of June so can't escape just yet and the tour I have doesn't end till 10th July.) :) I know whatever I book is not going to be cheap (because of time...

    Flying to London.. QF, Cathay or Thai in economy + flying to Iceland..

    Hi Tim, Thanks for your feedback re: IcelandAir. I have heard they are better than Iceland Express.. I have considered Finnair (one of my friend's who I am going to Iceland with will fly with them on this trip as he is doing an onward journey later in Finland and Norway.) Where as for me, I have...

    Qantas club worth it?

    Hi pbissett, I have QC membership and have found it to be worth it. It has been so handy esp. when I have been flying for work (when you work in the mining industry you fly often!) and there has been a delay with a flight, waiting for connecting flights, needing to grab a bite etc (haven't had...

    Flying to London.. QF, Cathay or Thai in economy + flying to Iceland..

    Hi browski, thanks for your reply. The emirates flights are HEAVILY booked on and around the dates I need to fly (a couple of agents I went to for quotes struggled to get me a seat). I chose London as the destination because I am familiar with it, have family there and this will also be my...

    Flying to London.. QF, Cathay or Thai in economy + flying to Iceland..

    Thanks Moa999 :) Well if CX is the same as QF in most ways.. I will probably choose QF over CX (for the fact I can get into QF lounge and if the food is better etc) Hi Eastwest101, I am looking at economy.. (dunno if I can stretch the budget at the moment for business..) I don't know if its...

    Flying to London.. QF, Cathay or Thai in economy + flying to Iceland..

    Hi everyone, I'm flying to London in June/returning in July. I am a Qantas FF/QC member so naturally looking at QF (there is also the possibility of gaining silver status but it won't be much more in perks than what I am getting now with being a QC member). However with CX being Oneworld also...
