Hi team - apoligies for the basic question but being BNE based I haven't arrived into MEL from overseas for a long time. Later this year I arrive into MEL from HKG on QF. It is an early morning arrival. I have a QF flight back to BNE late afternoon on a DIFFERENT Ticket. I realise I'll have to...

Mate I think I read somewhere in past few days that Boeing was open again for tours. https://www.flyingmag.com/boeing-factory-tour-to-resume-starting-next-week/ 5th of October looks like they are restarting :)

I am in Estonia now and withdrew some Euros less than an hour ago with no fees. This will probably be the last trip with this card though :(

Those were fun days :) They said they were going to close my account in writing but never did and I still use it as my main transaction account today (less running any automation scripts though)!

Wow a Tornado - first I have heard! Very cool.

I have had the most torrid week when I stupidly decided to add one more final flight to my OWA booking. Started last Monday, spoke to phone agents every day until Friday trying to get things ticketed. Watched on weekend as a couple of flights dropped off and another went to 'wait-listed'. Then...

Heard a new one from an agent today... We can't downgrade you from Business to Economy. Trying to push out a simple QF flight to later in the day and there is only Economy available. BNE-SYD so I am fine to go Economy. Serenity Now.

Aren't Suncorp trying to sell their Banking arm to ANZ? I think their Credit Cards were handled by Citibank so now probably NAB too?

It also depends on the currency you book in :( I am up to 10 weeks as I stupidly booked in Yen before I changed things around. I poked them via messenger at 8 weeks but still waiting and the non-AUD currency was the reason they gave me.

8. You can't add more flights once it is ticketed is a new one I have heard a couple times!

Think I can add a chapter or two to your book :)

What a great trip report :) I was really only snooping on the Legoland leg as I went there is 2010 and was curious to see it again. Must be a Legoland thing as I remember despite 3 months in Euro on that trip, that was the only really wet day. Of course when I was outdoors all day! I am...

Yep call again. I have been told twice in the past week that you can't add additional flights to a booking once it has been ticketed! I don't have the heart to argue and if they don't know that, I don't really want that person playing around with my booking. At least the call wait queues are a...

Wow - that's great to know :) I have avoided their HEL-TLL flights for years not really looking into it. That really changes things for me knowing I will also now have TLL in play as well as HEL :) Thanks again.

Hi all, Despite having managed to book a OWA this year and having an amazing time in Europe over Euro Summer - I am still a bit rusty after a few years on OWA and have a quick question. I am in the process of working out next year's trip and it is mostly booked in :) I have some leeway I...

Amazing photos of these stunning little villages. I shouldn't be reading this thread when I am hungry though! Food looks incredible :)

Six-ish weeks in Europe from late August. I have been lucky enough to get J seats to Europe and just need to work out seats home. Probably most of my time will be in and around Estonia as usual with some sidetrips. Currently they look like Norway train trip, Croatia and probably some time in UK.

As above I found it very strange there is no update on the status of your application. I applied, was conditionally approved, 3 days later officially approved but not told. I called the call centre the following day who said it was approved and sorted out Netbank for me. Card arrived BNE metro 4...

On tour at the moment and it still seems to be holding up. The covid blessing is most places are more than happy to use contactless payment so not the usual need for cash. Well, in Euroland anyway :)

Hey Ozflier - this happened to me two years ago. I had taken a few flights to get to Europe and was only there a couple of days, in Sofia, before my step-mother suddenly died :( It was on a weekend and it was tough trying to get onto QF. I liased with my TI provider and they said we will cover...
