    Discussion/Q&A on Best QF Status Run Options

    Re: Best Status Run Options - A quick overview! Thank you for your reply Chrizztofa. I thought booking my BNE-ADL flight via SYD(or possibly MEL) would give me the two segments I require to acquire silver status but I just thought I'd check with the brains trust in here to confirm. I'd love to...

    Discussion/Q&A on Best QF Status Run Options

    Re: Best Status Run Options - A quick overview! Hi everyone & greetings from London. I'm currently in London on holiday but will be returning to Australia Tuesday. Thanks to a return J flight from PER-LHR on QR, I will have accrued enough status credits to upgrade to QFF silver status. By the...

    What Have I Done....Regret Booking

    I've flown to LA return twice. Once ex Sydney with Qantas(A380) & once ex BNE with Virgin(B777) both in Economy. The return Virgin flight was a little bumpy but that may have been because I was sitting in the very last row. Friends sitting in PE said there was no bumps up that end of the plane...

    Unrestrained service dog

    I recently flew Virgin America LAX-BOS and across the aisle from me was a couple with their dog. It was a cross bred & weighed around 8kg or so at a guess. They too had it out of its carrier & sitting on their laps. I had a short chat with them & they said it was the dogs first flight & it was...

    What are your favourite hotel booking websites?

    I've used Hotels.com on a number of occasions. The last time I booked with them I got an absolutely fantastic deal on a room at The Oaks Ipswich Qld for the June long weekend next year. I managed to get 3 nights for $411 when that weekend is usually priced in excess of $300 a night. Needless to...

I've never flown VA before so I'm just wondering if any of you have flown this route & class in the last few weeks & might be able to tell me what meal options are available for both lunch/dinner & breakfast please? Can you also tell me...

    iOS 8 Discussion.

    I haven't updated to iOS8 as it's not suitable for the 4S. I've actually deleted the update so I don't accidentally install it without thinking. Unfortunately neither the 5S or the 6 comes with a country blue tick so are no good to me living in a rural area with very limited reception. I might...

    Employer Perks you wish you got

    I'd really appreciate an employer that treated us as people rather than slaves, didn't go out of its way to try to break it's employees & maintained equipment so it's in safe working order.

    Avoiding small talk with strangers

    I generally keep to myself while travelling but on occasion have had some great conversations with people next to me. I was lucky enough to be seated next to a Qantas air hostess on a flight from BNE-SYD. I was embarking on my first long haul flight(SYD-LAX) & as a very nervous flyer at that...

    Has your clothing ever got you into trouble overseas?

    I wore a Holden Racing Team(red & black with logos) jumper on the train back from Long Beach to Studio City in LA. When we got back to our hotel room that evening a friend who lives in LA nearly had a pink fit that I'd worn a jumper through that area that was apparently the colours of the Bloods...
