Just curious as to who out there actually have some experience at the controls (not the AVOD kind..:D) and have pursued their passion for flying. Do you fly professionally (Hi Bill...), or just a hobby? Where do you hope to take it?? I compeleted my T.I.F last month and simply cannot wait to...

Fellow AFF's, I am having some difficulty with QF (unusal I know), and I just need some other opinions to know if I am interpreting the rules correctly. I am currnely on a DAS13 Circle ASia fare SYD-HKG-TPE-NRT-MEL-BNE-SYD. I am currently in TPE, on my way to NRT and MEL tonight, and now need...

I cannot seem to get the availability I need in two weeks, possibly because of APEC, not sure. My question is that I asked QF if they would consider allocating a D class seat for SYD-NRT or SYD-HKg as part of a Circle Asia fare, because there is plenty of J availability, and they said I can...

Virgin Atlanitc (VS) has anounced a new order for 787-9's with plans for a non stop service between Australia and UK. Virgin Atlantic Airways - Popup

More room for passengers - Travel - smh.com.au When travelling alone (99%), I actually prefer this style (BA Club World) or configuration. I feel less like I am sharing space compared to sitting next to someone. Based on what I have read, I would welcome this change in the Y cabin.

I need to fly Dragon Air to PVG, and the F cabin is little difference to a J fare (booking online with CX). I was not sure that Dragon Air had a 3 class service, can anyone confirm this. The only reason I am considering this is they are CX codeshare flights so there are additional SC and points...

I have a spare night in Shanghai (first visit), and just looking for some "must do's" and tips from fellow members.

Happy New Year fellow AFF'ers!! Flying CX from BKK to Guangzhou (CAN) via HKG, in J. The HKG-CAN flight is a code share with China Southern, and does not have a CX flight number. Would I be correct in assuming I will not earn SC's on this flight?

Not sure if this is on another thread, but I noticed in todays telegraph that JQ have allocated seats as of 29th October 2006. IMHO, this was quite a large downside to travelling JQ, now all they need to do is offer even discounted SC and points to QF FF's, on their discounted fares..... but I...

Can I beleive that now as a WP, I can rock up to the F Lounge in SYD, flying VS, and expect access? I know it says I can, I just know from experience you give your boarding pass to gain access at the International QP. Likewise, when I return on VS, at 6.00am, I can go in if it is open and...

I have decided to fly VS to HKG next week in upper class to save significant $$ on the trip and I am no where near re-qualification for WP. At 6'4", I am looking forward to comparing their 202cm beds to QF and BA on the over night return. Can anyone offer their experience/comment on the VS...

I know mobiles in the air have been discussed previously, however, it would seem it is coming to fruition. :shock: http://www.sita.aero/News_Centre/Press_releases/Press_releases_2006/Air_France_to_fly_worlds_first_line_fit_aircraft_with_inflight_mobile_phone_system.htm I would be...

I received in the mail a letter from AMEX rewards announcing as of 1 July 06, you will be able to transfer 1 AMEX point to 1 VS Flying Club point. I see this as very good, as QF if 120,000 points J class SYD-HKG-SYD, on VS it is only 80,000 points. London 256k vs 180k on VS. I wonder how long...

I have tried Checkmytrip, virtuallythere and viewtrip with a six digit booking reference. Do they use something other than Amadeus, Sabre or Gallileo????

I am lucky enough to be eligible for industry specials. I have been told by the booking agent that you don't earn FF points, but could not answer in relation to status credits. Can anyone shed some light, as I am travelling SYD-BKK-SYD J class and could get damn close to WP by my anniversary. :P

Can anyone help?? I have booked CX2700 BKK-HKG 02/03/06 and CX713 HKG-BKK 06/03/06 both in J class, yet when I check my itinerary on checkmytrip.com, there is absolutley nothing on seat allocation....why?

Does anyoine have an opinion or experience on Finnair? Safe/Unsafe? I be be doing a number of runs between BKK, HKG & SIN and their business seats are quite cheap.......good for SC. :lol: Thanks JJ

Hi everyone, I am curious to know what jobs you all have that requires you to travel, either frequently or infrequently, domestic and international. I am project manger that travels only locally, and can vary in frequency a great deal, but enjoy it all, even if it is domestic. :) JJ
