My EA is flying away to the USA this morning and just touched base with her before she and the kids boarded the flight. She had access to the AMEX Lounge, but was told there was a 30 - 45 min wait to get in as it was already full. I know it is school holidays, but amazing that they are already...

Thanks for peoples comments on my request re J and F to Manchester. I have decided to take the plunge and travel F - first time for SQ. I have a day flight out of Sydney on an A380 (Suite), and the rest of the trip will be 777-300-er's. Couple of quick questions. 1) Do SQ provide PJ's for...

There is about a $2.5k diff between and AMEX special on F vs J on SQ to Manchester, on 777-300er. Trying to work out if the F seats are actually much better than J. Comments would be appreciated, booking in the next couple of days.

What a debacle I have had with Qantas.com then followed by an uninspiring Qantas Res. rep in the call centre. I am CX Gold, booking directly on QF.com for a domestic flight. During the booking when there is the opportunity to enter FF#, when I submitted that page I received an error: “We...

I would like to provide some feed back to SQ on my recent J trip - nothing earth shattering, but I think there are areas they could improve, particularly in my case in relation to Gluten Free foods. There are limited email addresses on their website. Looking for any suggestions on the most...

Travelling on a self funded business trip to KUL to attend the Australian Institute of Company Directors Annual Conference. Travelled on Sunday as I was originally expecting to run one of my own courses in KUL through one of my partners, but unfortunately it was cancelled. I decided to travel...

Travelling to PNG to run a three day Internal Controls and Fraud Course - second time I have run this program (first about the same time last year), but this year added a third day on case studies. As a VFF (Plat), the training organisation agreed for me to fly VA, and pay flexi fares allowing...

Brief Travel Report - SYD -SIN - KUL and return - March 2015 (sorry - I'm having issues uploading photos - is there any limit - I can't seem to add any more) I provided some corporate governance training in Kl over two days, and for a number of years have preferred travelling on SQ/MI between...

Hi I have just created a KF Account - I have points with VA, AMEX and Citibank. I have trip next week in economy (H Class) and then in May in Business Class (unsure of the sold class as the AMEX travel doc and invoice only state business class). I have access to ExpertFlyer - what upgrade...

Just made plat and about to book a flight to SYD-BNE-POM and return. I am about 190cm and my knee likes stretching room. Client willing to pay for exit row. Haven't had the benefit of a row 3 as yet, I imagine not as good as exit row but how good is it? Thanks.

I am a low level user of Marriot hotels and received a promotion and thought it might be worthwhile at least registering. I have a Reward Card, but it appears I haven't registered. Tried to registered, entered passwords, and received the "green ticks" that it meets the criteria, then I get an...

I can only blame my self for not checking sufficiently well enough, but given the price from SYD to AKL I assumed that it was the VA domestic business class given the significant different between VA 737 business class and NZ Business Class. Whilst cheaper than NZ still pricey for what I...

Decided for the first time to book an international flight on VA directly rather than through my Travel Agent. Flying over on VA and returning in an NZ code share. Knew I would need to contact NZ re seat allocation and special meal. VA Call centre happily provided the NZ PNR. Called NZ...

Hi I am traveling from SYD to KUL via SIN on Monday and I d VA Gold. I have paid the USD 50 to obtain an exit row extra legroom up and back to SIN. Whilst I have a seat allocated on the Silk air flights I can't seem to select an exit row. Does anyone know if when I do the online checkin...

Hi, I am travelling to Broken Hill from Sydney next week and travelling on ReX for the first time. I know my Virgin Gold status will be worthless. I have a CPAP machine (which I wont need to use on board), but I always carry it on board to protect it. I will also have my roll on with my...
