Have not done the flight to try yet, will try it in August as you suggest.

Unfortunately, I doubt that the LHR lounge could assist because the linking must be done no less than 24 hours before the flight (in this case SIN-SYD). But nothing to loose from asking! The "problem" that you point out is totally correct! However, I would view it as a ""bug" in their linking...

I have two QF lounge invitations. I am flying QF2 from LHR to SYD. The plane transits in SIN for a few hours. I can link an invitation to the QF lounge in LHR on departure. I do not see how to link the second lounge pass so I can use it in the QF lounge in SIN. Does anybody know how to do...

I wonder where the highest ATM owner fees are charged? Can anybody beat Chile, ATM fees are about $15 each time, ouch.

I forgot to mention, would it make any difference if I am flying on an AA flight number on that QF metal with my lifetime gold! ie, QF 1st Lounge if it is open?

I like this reply best!! To me, this is pretty clear and emphatic that as QF Gold, I WILL have access to the 1st lounge in SYD international, thanks guys.

So hard to get an answer from QF, so I'm trying here!! In two weeks I am flying Y on QF metal out of SYD T1. I am QF lifetime GOLD. Do I get access to any lounge pre-departure or are all QF Gold left out in the cold at SYD T1?

JohnM, interesting!!

No worries, thanks for that tip. We will certainly look into doing that on our last leg! Any chance you will be in Guanaqueros about 20 Jan? That is our planned 1st night stop after departing La Serena on our grand journey. BTW, our vehicle will be a Toyota Hilux 4x4 with 17” wheels!

Ok, about two years ago I drove all the way up the Equi valley to just a few km short of the border. From what I recall it was sealed most of the way except for the last few km up the switchbacks. There was also a lot of roadworks going on at that time, sealing the road. However, the road in the...

If it is just a 3 month limit, why not, after 3 months take a leisurely drive up the Elqui valley, cross over at Aqua Negra and eat a nice steak and red wine in San Juan before making the return trip! The reciprocity fee was not collected on land border crossings, will be interesting to see how...

John, OMG man! I didn't recognise you without the beard. What year did you take it off? You have aged very well ''ol boy, - must be due to the pickling effect of all that pisco and wne, right, ..........salud!!

That proves it, my crystal ball DOES need calibration! Hey John, who was looking after your house there after you returned to Australia - it would have been a long time on its own. Would have thought that some local may have moved into it. You'd be aware of that Chilean law that says something...

Hmmm....interesting thread. I thought that the history behind this thread was worthy of dusting off my old model crystal ball which came with a 'history function'' built in. I think that option was fairly new when I bought it (cost me an arm and a leg extra though). Anyway, I found it under a...
