Hello, any AusFF members have any thoughts on the 777-300 Skycouch? Considering it for 2 adults and a small child. I'm quite tall though so thinking its going to suck for me and i'll end up sitting upright anyways :) But for the wife and kid it looks a great idea and only $200 extra. Lots of...

Hi all, On a flight last week my seatmate who was Elite told me when his 2 Gold recognition upgrades were "lost" when he achieved Elite and received 2 more. As in he thought he would have 4 in total after the new status but only had 2 if that makes sense. Same is about to happen to me soon, so...

So I'm flying MEL-PER a few weeks back and managed to get upgraded using points to 1A in the lovely new config A330. I'm settling into the seat and enjoying the preflight drink when I hear the cabin manager meekly asking the passenger behind would she mind swapping with a lady who is unhappy...

Have to visit Perth soon for work, company only pays for Premium Economy so I'm thinking of trying the WLG-AKL-PER PE service. My other option is WLG-SYD-PER with Qantas in Economy with which I do have lounge access, I am OW gold but doubt its worth splurging points to get into business on...
