Is the trial still running in Sydney? I'm flying QF1 in 10 days and will be at the airport anyway about 8 hours before my flight...

Totally agree - makes it very hard to justify the fee now. I'm cancelling if they don't make any adjustments (after all, the points must be cheaper for Citi to purchase now, so why not give us more?). I spend ~$100k pa on the card, so there are plenty of other options out there.

I think we must have been in the same seat (30A). My screen wouldn't stay up either - but luckily there was nobody next to me (nor in the middle row) so I could just move next door. With the seat - I had the same problem, but discovered after half an hour there is an almost hidden button on...

I haven't flown Virgin in PE but the CX seat is at least as comfortable as QF's (same width). If you sit in row 30, with the extra legroom and the bonus legrest, it beats QF's seats hands down in my view.

I flew Cathay’s PE to Hong Kong yesterday morning (my first time on CX) and I have to say I’m underwhelmed. The only really good thing about it is the seat (which is very comfortable, but so is Qantas’). Main negative points: there were less than ten of us in the cabin, which has a capacity...

Welcome Caroline - I'm new as well but you'll find the people here very helpful!

Im 90 SC short of gold for the first time so very keen to hear how 140SC (without the double SC offer) can be achieved for 24000 points (which, coincidentally, is precisely my balance).

I doubt QF will be calling last drinks now that DJ is offering them!

Surely if your name is on the side of a plane you should get a free flight on it?!

OK so it's clearly not a card for those wanting to spend >$100k pa. Are you saying there are other cards that require a spend of <$200k to earn a J return to Europe?

I got a survey from Citi a few months back asking for quite detailed feedback on the Emirates platinum card including which additional features would make me keep the card. Some of the features we quite juicy (eg free flight, and others that I can't remember). Does anybody know if the card is...

This is also how I understand it, however booking one-way flights should avoid this problem.

17/09 CX110 7:35am SYK-HKG 17/09 CX711 4:20pm HKG-SIN (only about an hour layover here) 21/09 CX716 6:25pm SIN-HKG 24/09 CX111 7:00pm HKG-SIN I'm flying Cathay's new PE on the longer legs so will be good to see how it compares with QF's. Like QF, CX's PE doesn't come with lounge access, so if...

Whilst the A380 is certainly superior, their other metal is also better than average, at least in Y. And the service is amazing. For leisure flights we always try to fly EK (although it's usually just to NZ so it's easy to be better than QF/DJ/JQ). Flew J once to Christchurch in their 777 and...

Can someone please point me to a post that outlines the etiquette (and rules) for these lounge guesting threads? Ie how long should you be a member before requesting a guesting into a lounge? Do you have to be on the same flight / same airline to guest someone? If you guest someone (or are...

Thanks everyone. Seems like I might spend the $100 or so that a monthly Admirals pass would have cost on a few beers and a meal on the concourse!

OK so I work for a small business that doesn't she'll out for business class fares. I get to fly premium economy if I play my cards right... Anyway, I've got an Asian trip coming up with quite a few flights on CX and i'm wondering whether it's possible to buy a 1-day or 30-day pass to the CX...

Only a few hours - but I have a week there on the way back for a conference.

I have a layover in HKG in September, then am back in HKG a week later for a few days. I'm flying CX all the way in PE which doesn't have lounge access. Does anyone have any comments/suggestions on the paid lounges in HK? Is it worth it?

Hi guys, I've been reading the boards for a while now and thought it was time I signed up, so here I am. Im just starting to do a moderate amount of travel for work - almost entirely in Asia. Will get close to QFF gold this year - only problem will be getting the four sectors on QF! Anyway...
