About 5 business days for me. Signed up for the plat charge, and the accor offer turned up in days, linked it to my gold accor membership and got confirmation email from accor a few days later. All up less than a week from applying for an amex.

I'm in the same situation. I had a look what I could buy in the store, and the Sony 75" TV is worth about $2k, and around 700k points. I figured moving 1M points to KF would at least get my family of 4 return economy flights to Singapore twice, which is worth much more than that. It's too many...

I left my iPad on a SQ flight from SIN to Tokyo (can't remember which airport). Within 2 hours of landing I had a call to my mobile, a message left and an email from SQ. I left them know that I would be leaving Tokyo in 5 days but from the other airport. I hadn't even realised that the ipad...

Thanks - I am booking a few flights today, so nice bonus!

Good idea - I will do that, I do hate the 7am flight out of Melbourne but even if I get a non refurb A330 out of Brisbane, I could put up with it for 9 hours. Plus my hotel room will be ready, rather than having to wait around until checkin. And I'll try to get upstairs on the 747 on the way...

Am I correct in my reading here that all international A330s should be upgraded by the time I'm planning on going to Japan in September? From Melbourne to Tokyo I have two options: 1. go via Sydney (then QF25 on a 747 to Haneda) 2. go via Brisbane (then QF62 on a A330 to Narita) I'm guessing...

Thanks. Stupid autocorrect changed the destination!

Thanks, that is a great update post. It gives some indication on the chance of hitting a refurbished 330. I did a quick MEL-PER-MEL trip, and got the old 2/3/2 cabin with the middle seat blocked out. I won't bother booking J for these flights again - apart from a little bit of extra leg room...

Re: ALL QF's 330's to get lay flat Business seating - Including Domestic Thanks Oz and Wenglock for your help. Would have been nice to experience the new J seats but at least I'm not on the red eye so really doesn't matter.

Re: ALL QF's 330's to get lay flat Business seating - Including Domestic Sorry for not reading the entire thread, but I just booked MEL-PER-MEL flights for the AFL finals. Are these flights the new business class? I'm happy to burn my points for an upgrade but only into the new business seats...

Jojen, happy to post - I arrived back in Melbourne today. I could get it in the post tomorrow - if you want to cover the cost for an express post envelope I can do that, and it'll be in the mail Friday. Edit - had a look and I have a C5 express envelope here at home, so I could have it in the...

I have a spare QP pass expiring end of April and would like to offer it up. I have gained a lot of knowledge from this forum, and it's time to return the favour to the AFF community. I won't be back in Australia until next week, so won't be able to post it in time to anyone planning to fly in...

No, just go to manage my booking. On board they weren't used to the change as they mixed up all the meals and special requests for the "extra" menu item. I put it down to teething problems.

yes I have on qf35 mel-sin in Y. It comes up as an option under manage my booking. It is being rolled out on selective flights.

Surely they could have a barcode reader of some type to allow access. To stop people from "borrowing" other people's frequent flyer cards, maybe it could be linked to the barcode on the boarding pass. The type of poor service you have described really irritates me. Once you are in, is it...

16 MAR MEL QF8407 J ~2115h I think I can guest one in under QP membership, but have to be on same flight.

I've asked about for the express custom/quarantine lane before at MEL, and have been told that there wasn't one, and to line up in the queue that snakes back on itself for hundreds of metres. The AQIS express passes have been useless to me. I vaguely remember an express lane one one occasion...

I'm pretty sure I can guest someone with my QC membership. 07 Dec MEL J QF93 1120 Can guest 1 10 Dec LAX J QF94 2330 Can guest 1 Times shown are departure times. PM if interested

Received two cards in the mail - I hadn't applied, but it looks like they are targetting me to upgrade to the Diamond Mastercard by sending the cards first, and making it easy to switch over. I'm grandfathered on a lifetime free Gold Visa card that I had from 1998 through a professional...
