Adding some DPs to the thread: MU - status not recognised in system but station manager at MEL took a photo of the card and manually issued a lounge voucher. PVG lounge dragons equally helpful. MF - status not recognised in system and station manager straight out refused to honour, saying what...

JMS38 still works for me (but the discount is not great it seems)

Yes it's possible but you need an accompanying document to prove "foreign status", which can be rather complex - see list of acceptable documents on page 4 of the PDF: https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/iw7.pdf You'll likely also have issues getting a certified copy of those documents that...

Marhaba had a terrible selection of food and drinks the last time I visited (a few months back)! Very very low quality stuff. Having said that, quality sometimes varies by time of day at these contract lounges, as I believe some airlines pay for better food during certain hours.

My suggestion is to try calling Virgin Voyages again, following these steps: - Call in and choose the support option - Explain your problem fresh, as if you've never called before, and mention that there's a known issue in relation to access codes not reaching Velocity members who have purchased...

Thank you both! I applied directly to the IRS, mainly because I didn't want a third party handling my personal information (and also because I was reasonably confident that I could navigate the forms myself). Yep sent from Australia and expecting to be sent back to an Australian address, and...

Hoping for some advice from the brains trust here. I applied for an ITIN at the end of June, was granted one at the start of September, but am yet to see either the ITIN confirmation letter or my passport. Does anyone know roughly how much longer I should be waiting? Getting somewhat anxious as...

Yes had this experience flying SYD-MEL recently, and it even came with some sauce. The fritters are actually quite nice, but it definitely had me thinking about how they were pushing the boundaries of what one could reasonably juggle in an economy seat!

Can I ask if you've previously received any cards through PlanetExpress and if so, did you have to submit the notarised form to them?

I noticed this too but couldn't get anything more than 6 to work unfortunately! Booked the first 6 sectors (8 legs) online then had to do the rest through an agent.

Can't answer your question for sure but I'm certainly hoping so, and the terms and conditions don't suggest this to be a problem (other than if you resell it). During the checkout process I replaced my name with my intended recipient and delivery address - I'm hoping that helps with it too.

Brilliant value, assuming the subsequent redemption process is smooth. Thanks for the post!

Try using the SQ app instead - I think it works that way. Once you have the email address updated, the website will work as well.

Echoing the sentiment that Etihad would've crunched the numbers and figured out what's optimal - and passenger fare profitability is just one of a multitude of elements, most of which the general public does not get to see whatsoever (some examples include freight profitability, aircraft...

Planet Express and amex don't mix well because of the lack of suite details in amex correspondence. I'm yet to receive anything there successfully because of this.

An agent suggested booking as many segments online as possible and making any corrections/additions within 24 hours of the booking to avoid having to pay any change fees, and that worked like a charm for me - no change fees charged, and I spent far less time on the phone than I would've if the...

I received an email today from Cap1 ([email protected]) inviting me to try the pre-approval process. Problem is I don't have an ITIN (have an application in progress with the IRS), am not a Cap1 customer, and have never had an interaction with them. I have no idea how they...

You can definitely do 1+1, and I'm 99% certain you can do 1+2 as well.

Successfully booked a OWA in J on AY/JL/QF/MH (10 flights, 2 surface sectors, 33K miles inc the surface sectors). Ticketing happened within 3 hours - I was amazed! By contrast, a separate one way flight in J on AY booked using QFF the same day still has not ticketed 4 days later, and a prompt...

Not too surprised with the lack of blogger/vlogger coverage of the Chinese carriers in recent times, as the country is really still just opening up, so just throwing in some of my personal opinions below (I don't have much to say about MF though - no experience with them). Overall, I wouldn't...
