Like a number of others, my status has updated to Gold today and expires next month on 31/10/22, aligned with my Accor Plus expiry. I’m not planning on renewing, so I wonder what hoops I will need to go through to get this pushed out to at least get 12 months of Gold?

Seems Kathleen has been busy today - got the same email this evening advising a status upgrade by next Friday

Great - thanks!

Did you call them or use the web form? I spoke to them a few days ago on another matter and asked at the same time about this offer and the response was, don’t worry this will be completed soon.

This clip shows what RR expects to happen to these $15M engines when a fan blade breaks loose: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=736O4Hz4Nk4

Survey came through this afternoon. I'm somewhat cynical at the timing, however have made the most of the opportunity to let QF know how I feel, which had they asked the questions prior to the enhancements, they would have the same feedback from me, albeit with a more conciliatory tone. I...

May have something to do with JL pulling capacity off this route or pulling out altogether.

On what basis do you make this comment? As the JQ 332's will replace QF 763's then surely (depending on which routes these aircraft will ply) QF will want these configured in either their international or domestic configuration?

At least 4 of these are not affected. VH-OGS/GT/GU/GV were built after Boeing implemented a design change. A kit was made available as a retrofit for older aircraft and one would hope QF installed them. Of over 900 x 767's globally, approx 200 have not had the kit fitted.

AirNZ will retain standard J on 767's and J+ (Business Premiere) on 777's which link with onward flights to LAX etc

We enjoyed our stay there. Just far enough away from the hustle and bustle of Macau casinos to kick back and relax, yet not too far if you want to enjoy the new Macau offerings. The staff couldn't do enough for us. Make sure you go to Fernandos at Hac Sa beach, a 10 minute walk down the beach...

Hi Wayne I was in the second cabin in business on the upper deck of the 380 and was moved to the first row in the front J cabin. The power outlet is located in the bulkhead in front of 11J/11K. Not sure if the A/B seats in this row also have "mains" power. I cannot attest to the comfort of...

I fly in J every 4 to 6 weeks on long haul, mostly with QF and CX with half of them being overnight flights and have used my CPAP on 332, 333, 380, 747 and 777's (includes BA, NZ and 9W) in the laptop outlets without issue. That was until my recent return from LAX with QF on a 380 when 3 hours...

Arriving in BNE last week with 2 bags tagged 'Business' we waited until 80% of the baggage from the flight came off before 'Business' and 'Priority' bags came through, some 25 minutes after landing. On our return to SYD, our 'Business' tagged bags were in the first 4 on the carousel and only...

One would suspect that there would be more direct flights from LAX and SFO to the CO hubs and some other destinations, rather than hubbing with UA and US to get to these locations. Of more importance is the inbound traffic NZ will pickup from CO passengers, plus some outbound to HKG to connect...

NZPA | Friday April 9, 2010 - 01:55pm Air New Zealand and Continental Airlines have started a reciprocal code share agreement, providing Air NZ access to parts of the United States not previously available with current partners. Under code sharing agreements airlines can sell tickets on...

Perhaps they were load balancing the aircraft and you were unfortunate to have been chosen for the weight redistribution exercise? Too many people in one area affects the aircraft trim for take off.

If a WP books online are these "extra" Classic Award seats available or do you have to go through the call centre?

Well lucky you. I have in the past 3 years been in the 2.5K to 3K range for SC's (for which Mrs kiwial is thankful) and likewise no YUP's. Almost all has been at the more expensive end of the bus, however no op-up's for me on 3 class aircraft nor on the couple of Y trips I have made on QF- no...
