    Trying to get a QFF Prem Economy seat to the US Dec - Jan for a decent price

    If I can figure out a way to go in Prem Econ I will go pretty well anywhere within reason. I quite like HKG so I could even do a stopover. I'd prefer not to go to Perth and back as it seems I would be doing 16 hours of flying extra. 4 to PER, 4 flying back over MEL on my way over and the reverse...

    Trying to get a QFF Prem Economy seat to the US Dec - Jan for a decent price

    Thanks macrop. I figured I would be pushing it uphill. I could do the trip in economy but it's not a pleasant experience as most know. Fred, I do not care about wine ( don't drink it ) and I find even economy meals are usually passable these days. I don't mind a trip to ADL to leave as most...

    Suggestion for pad/netbook to travel with

    I just did 3 weeks with a 7 inch Android Tablet. No issues with it but I am not sure I want to do it again. I may just stump up for something like an ultrabook. A 10 inch tablet is almost at a small ultrabook size... though a lot cheaper. I HATE on screen keyboards and the lack of processing...

    Trying to get a QFF Prem Economy seat to the US Dec - Jan for a decent price

    We've done it hard over the last few years and I want to treat her... and myself to a white Christmas in the US. Or at the least a cold Christmas. I have spent some time looking at fares (both QFF points and paid). Clearly being the Christmas period the prices are more. I have enough points to...

    Getting a Job O/S - US in particular.

    The 'what job do you do' thread has reawakened my interest in getting a job overseas. I love travelling and spending a couple of years or more in a new country is one way of getting into it. Has anyone applied for and got a job in the States in particular? I am after sites, people to approach...

    Has anyone here *never* been in Business or First?

    I have only been in business once and that was pure luck on an upgrade. I have never even looked into the first class cabin.

    Qantas Club Access Denied

    I must be the only one on Leftrudder's side completely. I was annoyed enough that when I took a points flight on Cathay I couldn't use the QC but the logic was there. In this case leftrudder got a Qantas ticket. I don't see what there is to discuss. If Qantas sell a fare as Qantas and not a...

    Tiger Airways Australia to hub at MEL

    perhaps, though the 8 buck fares from perth to singapore isn't too bad... though I don't expect them from Melbourne to anywhere interesting for that much.

    You've just created a terrorist!

    I gather he is a serial idiot anyway. I wonder if airlines have a 'black list'.

    Tiger Airways Australia to hub at MEL

    I personally think it's great. Domestic doesn't bother me much but travel to asia will drop like a stone, as I like travelling there it's enough to make me smile ... almost. Australia is big enough to support another airline IMO but I expect that the lions ( tiger ?? ) share of it's...

    JQ Seat Plans

    Thanks everyone, the only issue I have is the proximity to the loo .. but I think we are far enough. The JQ plans dont show a toilet... in the end, I will be happy just to get there :)

    JQ Seat Plans

    I am trying to figure out the the seating arrangements on the JQ airbuses but can't find anything on seatguru or seatexpert but there are QF airbuses on both sites. Are they arranged the same for both carriers?? By the QF plan were are a bit closes to the toilets for my liking but I don't want...

    Jetstar to Honolulu - Best Seating?

    Thanks, I found on a cathay flight once that I simply didn't fit :shock: I got off my butt and looked at the seats we got. Not too bad but a bit close to the toilets. Fortunately the plane behind us is nearly empty. I'm tempted to leave it and hope that there are no more bookings and I will get...

    Jetstar to Honolulu - Best Seating?

    I am off to Hawaii (the off to the Continental US ) in a week and a half. I'll see how we go now I know we can check in this far ahead. I pray for a half empty flight but I don't have that sort of luck often :shock: Are the exit row seats narrower than the other seats ? ... the plane isn't the...
