    Gifts for cabin crew

    Usually if it’s a significant holiday, e.g. Easter, Christmas. My go to at Easter is a few Lindt Dark, Milk or White Chocolate Bunnies. At Christmas I prefer to go with some quality Shortbread.

    Article: How to Improve Airport Security Queues

    I like the sign idea, but it would need to be on nearly every bollard, left & right, in the lead-up to the Security checkpoint. Maybe they could employ some more staff to walk the line to remind people, that haven't read/comprehended the signs, what to take off/out. The full body scanners...

    Qantas extends status extensions until end June 2023 (previously December 2022)

    As a shareholder of QF, can you ask them why the Call Centre wait times are absolute garbage? If Alan or Olivia had to waste their time hanging on the phone for hours on end, it'd be changed in a heartbeat.

    Article: International Airlines Not Returning to Brisbane

    "For passengers travelling from Europe, for example, the only usable international flights to Brisbane are with Qatar Airways, Emirates or Singapore Airlines. Otherwise, a transit through Sydney or Melbourne is required." Whoops! Must've forgotten DRW-BNE does have flights. It can be booked as...

    Platinum sitting in economy - Do the airlines pay extra attention to us?

    I’ve been stuck in Y on a redemption International flight, had a nice chat to the CSM who came and greeted me, checked if I would like anything from ‘up the front’. I declined as the Crew were super busy, as the flight was completely full. I was in 64D on VH-OJT (747). I wasn’t expecting...

    QF A380 Refurbishment - RIP the wonderful economy 'mini-cabin'

    I agree with the OP. It'll be a pity to see the end of the small Economy Cabin, but I guess with the extra 6 Business & 25 P/Economy seats, there is probably a chance that QF might release an extra Upgrade. I much prefer the Mini Cabin to the large Economy Cabin downstairs. I've only...

    No meal service trans-tasman, inquiry to VA about why is bizzare

    This from their webpage. On Trans Tasman flights, our Flexi and Saver guests receive complimentary food and selected beverages. A selection of snacks and other beverages may also be purchased, subject to availability. On the VA website, they only offer a Saver or a Flexi, so by the website...

    Hello from Bundaberg

    Thanks everyone for the welcome. @VirginBart, since the arrival of VA into BDB, prices have stayed about the same. Not much of a VA Flyer, but if it means some competition, I'm all for it. Cheers.

    Hello from Bundaberg

    Hi Everyone, I've finally found a place where people understand the absolute need for checking different flights/connections to maximise Status Credits. My friends all think I'm a little crazy for doing this, maybe I am, but at least I now know I'm not the only one. :D My first Status Run was...
