    Transiting through LAX On Separate Tickets

    Can you get your bags checked all the way through interline agreement? I wouldn't recommend less than 3 hours for separate bookings unless you like to run over terminals. Back in the day, I used to do 4-5 hours and that was even stressful. I had to rely on my first flight to go as planned which...

    Virgin Australia B737 Max 8

    Apologies, you are indeed correct. Captain asked us personally in the business cabin whilst we were waiting for stairs to be adjusted and then commented on his own experience on deck

    Virgin Australia B737 Max 8

    These were the safety cards on the max this morning. Some airlines have done this instead of correctly saying 737-8M. I have flown Aeromexico and they specifically distinguish it.

I don’t think people were aware that we were flying a Max. Interestingly the safety cards only say 737-800. Not dissimilar to other...

    Which Hotel Status to go for?

    So I agree, depends spending patterns and what you value as benefits. Some would say Hilton provides good value benefits. I have personally enjoyed Accor gold - good variety of properties that suit all budgets, free drink, mostly upgraded every visit; however other chain may have better value...

    Which Hotel Status to go for?

    Where internationally do you go? Your destinations would dictate that. Also what do you value as perks and your average expenditure.
