I had to completely delete app then redownload from App Store and set up afresh. It now’s shows CHN, so I’m happy.

Thanks, interested to hear of your experience. Clearly, the "reinstatement" at midnight Beijing time is late.

Cruiser Elite, has your virtual ABTC updated to show CHN?

From today (1 May), China is meant to recognise virtual ABTC. My own app still has the pop to say not valid for Russia or China and does not list CHN in the Valid for Travel section despite that showing as a pre approved country when I check my application online. I'm heading to China towards...

Just saw JAL advertised at around 5.7 from memory.

Exactly

had a great flight and returned home via HKG with no problems. There was no glitch and I did not receive points or status credits.

Surely not

Not the same issue, but similar and a very pleasant experience from QFF this week worth reporting. I had booked a reward ticket in J PER-LHR on CX when they became available last year. With HKG troubles, I rang the platinum line on Wednesday and was very quickly rerouted on QF9 still in J with...

Hi, we stayed at the boutique hotel below. It is hidden away close to the Spanish Steps and with 3 couples you would just about fill it. Fantastic hospitality and a wonderfully restored residence. https://www.nobildonnerelais.com/en/

My RM Williams boots consistently breeze through MEL security on my feet. At SYD the same boots trigger the alarm and need to be removed. Been that way for over a year now.

Had a KA A330 into HKG on Saturday. No gate at all, scored a bus and we had to wait at the stand off bay for 15 mins for the bus to arrive. That made my connection to CX rather tight and with the super typhoon looming I was a tad nervous. No need to worry, CX135 was delayed by 3hours. The...

HKG is a great airport for lounges, but......scoring a gate in the 500’s is a right pain. Recently I’ve copped it more often than not with KA flights. Note to self: Get the CX operated ones into China.

Th Pier F lounge is fantastic!

Had 4 TG flights in last 2 weeks. No-one checked and my wheelaboard >10kg. In J if that matters.

Like many say, if there is a high speed train <4-5 hrs, take it. They are listed on timetables as G trains. I've lost count of the number of times I've been delayed on internal flights, often sitting on plane at gate for hours after boarding. No fun! An oddity on the G train, Business class is...

In 1979 on my first o/s trip as a young teen I flew SYD - LHR, stopping at SIN and BAH as well as Damascus where we remained on the plane with a few soldiers making sure we took no photos out of the windows. A few passengers got on and off, but I recall one QF flight per week had to stop as...

Went out to a business lunch recently in Sydney with a Chinese company we do some business with. One of their guys had trousers a leather jacket and the shirt from his QF pj's. Hard to keep a straight face.

Having some experience getting an emergency passport for a child overseas........I strongly endorse the comment by BillytheFish that forms etc need to be signed by both parents. In fact, as it is urgent, both parents should go to the interview at the passport office. The DoI are rightly...

Travelling from Nanjing to Wuxi a year or so ago.....our driver caused a very minor accident with another car only a few minutes into our trip. Both cars stopped in the middle of the road, much arguing as above etc. Our Chinese man explained what was going on, so my Aussie mate and I offered...
