First time trip reporter. I must say I have a new found respect for folks who take those lovely pictures. Mine are a bit rough and ready, but I hope you enjoy. Below is the stroll out to the SYD SQ lounge. I flew up to SIN to meet Mrs Rugby who is there for work and treated myself. We will come...

Qantas SYD Flounge phone number? 1651817259 It looks like Mrs Rugby left a phone in the lounge - anyone got an up to date phone number?

Hi All - we are looking at some flights on JAL, and for some legs have the choice of J on a 767 or 787. We’re after some thoughts on which is the better product. We flew J SYD-NRT return with them a few years ago, but I can’t recall the aircraft. Cheers, Rugby

On my flight to MEL this morning, QF411, we did a go-around. The captain announced not long after that all was well and the reason for the go-around was because there had been a dog on the runway. I assume that doesn’t happen too often and it gave everyone a chuckle and a story for the day, and...

Mrs Rugby and I have a night coming up at the Sofitel and I wanted to see if anyone has stayed recently and can advise on the quality of the Club Lounge? Cheers.

Dear AFF Team - after some advice on the range/value of single malts at Narita T2 duty free outlets for purchase on the way home? Pricing on the ground at shops here for whisky has been decent compared to home. We are also enjoying trying some of the Japanese single malts. Cheers.

Mrs Rugby and I are flying on QF 21 shortly in J and at the moment the plane is the config with the Skybed Mk I seats in what was the old F cabin. I've selected seats in the old F cabin, as opposed to upstairs - the only reason being we haven't flown that seat/cabin combination previously...

I've started tinkering with Scotch in the last couple of years and read an article recently saying that you should have three decent bottles in the cabinet. At the moment my picks are Lagavulin 16yr old, Lapraoig 10yr old and Caol Ila 12yr old. What three bottles would you have in your cabinet?
