    PER-SIN in J, identical hard product?

    About to make a redemption for PER-SIN in J for late July. Two early flights on A330-300s are available and two later flights on 777-200 (SR refitted) at more reasonable hours. Am I correct in saying that the hard product on these flights is identical? From my googling it seems that way, but I...

    Melb QP/Business Lounge Access, mixed class booking

    Apologies for the probably simple question, but having looked at the lounge access rules I can't quite work out the answer. I think the answer is - yes both have access to the business lounge or QP. But worth asking nonetheless. Two pax flying Perth-Melb-Devonport (classic awards). No status...

    Free Regional 'Upgrade'

    This may be common knowledge - but I haven't seen a post about it. Apologies if so!! I flew Broome to Perth last Thursday evening on VA1488 which was a 737 rather than the usual Fokker 100. Checked in online and was happy with row 3. I had noticed previously that no J fares are sold PER-BME-PER...

    Flight Routes

    Asked this in a different thread - but this might be a better place. Just booked HND-PVG-SIN-PER on LM. A few hours in transit in PVG, 2hrs in SIN Should I really be writing HND-xPVG-xSIN-PER to indicate that they are not stopovers but just transit points?? Or does the x indicate a stopover?

    A few months ago I was lucky enough to jag a F seat CDG to NRT, NH206, at the end of January 2015 to tack another month onto my holiday. Thanks LM ;-). Until a few days ago I was the only person in the F cabin, but have noticed that two other seats are now taken on ExpertFlyer. This being...

    Lifemiles - a glitch?

    Yesterday I booked 2x pax from Australia to Europe in J from one lifemiles account. I booked the return from another account also in J. Each booking should have used 150,000 points and a cash component of 800 odd USD. Having received no email and an error message for both bookings I rang...

    Staying classy in the VA Lounge

    Flew on the 9pm MEL-SYD with VA last night. The sheer quantity of people with either a) Shoes off and feet up on a neighbouring seat; or b) Shoes on and feet up on a neigbouring seat; or c) Shoes on or off- and up on ones own seat - was astounding. I know there are countless threads on...
