    likely phantom availability. you can check using other airlines, eg United, to confirm.

    Alipay/WeChat Pay in China

    Anyone has any recent experience with setting up wechat/ alipay? (as a foreign visitor to China) I was able to set up Alipay, and linking an Aust credit card to it. But I did not have to verify my passport. Just wondering if there is a step missing, cos someone mentioned needing to verify passport.

    I wonder why the cabin crew often have a lot of luggage. I imagine most of them are in some kind of import/export business arrangements!

    The cost of Aussie passports are way out of line with the rest of the world, but we cannot do anything about it. Bullshit nonsense about strength and security.

    Latest information about 28 degrees card

    Was trying to set up Suica too, and kept getting rejected. Replied to their SMS that transaction was genuine, tried again, and failed again. Just gave up, and used a Citibank card instead with no issues.
