French own the language. We speak English in Australia not because Australia own the language because she doesn't, but it is the language of communication for general and businesses by most non English speaking countries where I came from. I certainly don't expect French to speak Malay when they...

Pushka, You missed my point. The moment you open up your market for travellers from the world, you could no longer insist your native language to be used in general communication because not many people outside of French speaking countries are able to do so. However, English still remains the...

You may be right on the time travel but as a first timer to Paris, with a trolley bag, I would not say it is easy to travel using the metro, especially when we have to stop and ask for directions. The French may be opening up with the idea of having English speaking tourists but there are still...

Actually it took less than one hour to get from the airport to Paris. As we were the third drop of the trip (traveling with Supershuttle sharing with a few others), the first drop was such a mess because the address was a residential within the city and that's not easy to find and the passengers...

Emirates Lounge is reasonably good for general use including the shower facility (I still prefer Qantas Lounge where shower and toilet are all in one unit). Lounge in Dubai is just too good for me, except that I have to queue for the use of toilet. Food is just too much variety to choose from...

Re: 28° Mastercard Cash Advances while overseas [No more free cash advances from 1/1/ Have been using the card to withdraw in Italy and France (still in Paris). Have made more than 7 withdrawals, all without operator's fee. I think it is not easy to find one that charges fees (found one so...

Yes, I shall request booking reference from the Travel Agent and take it from there. Will feed back. Thanks

Emirates flights booked from KUL to Geneva by Travel Agent who refused to include my QF FF info in the booking. As I am not a Skywards member, what’s my option to go online or manage my booking online including seating preference? Thanks

As I log on, the word off loading in other thread happened to catch my attention hence sharing the experinece. Although that happened 5 years ago but it was like yesterday to me.

This happened 5 years ago. I was flying out of Port Hedland (regional airport) with QF to Perth, flying overseas the same evening Perth for a major family trip. The wife and kid were flying out of Sydney separately to meet up in Singapore. There was no room for any luggage stuff up or the...

Just walked in QC at Adelaide airport. Despite flying JQ with QFFP clearly stamped without number (I take that P means Plat), the reception desk still insisted on seeing my FFCard. I pointed out the QFFP stamp but she still politely asked to see the card. She didn't explain.

A workmate at work has some loose change (Euro) in his wallet. As I am going to Italy next month, I offer to offload his Euro by using Citibank Plus for the transfer as a trial. At that time I didn't realise the Citibank Plus can be used for this nature of transfer as I was so preoccupied with...

Just to proof a point, I shall make another transfer of Euro 55.

Yes but I am not too sure if that means Euro5 per transaction regardless of amount transacted or 5% of the amount received by BOI.

Made an overseas transfer of Euro100 from Citibank plus account to Bank of Ireland on the 11/9 but the transaction came thru on the 13/9 and recorded as such. I received one single charge of A$145.22 for Euro100 transferred. The average rate on the 13/9 was 0.6969 (I could be wrong as the...

Flying out 2:50pm. YEAH!!

First trip to Europe: will commence holiday flying EK from KUL to GVA (via DXB), overland and last stop in FCO with wife + kid + parents. What lounge accesses (in KUL and DXB) are available and would appreciate your advice. I do realise the limit in number of guests I am allowed to bring in to...

My first post: As QF WP can I (wife and kid) visit F Lounge in Sydney on my way out?
