    Do you leave a tip for hotel housekeeping?

    Tipping is some kind of mental illness, I do not engage in this barbaric behavior. In the US, this is particularly a clown show, so I avoid going.

    Qantas rolls out Classic Plus Flight Rewards

    Quite ridiculous, is this not basically just the "anytime points" prices rebranded? It's not quite as much, but you also pay a lot of fees so... I think we need some serious competition for frequent flyers here, the gates are wide open for VA to benefit - if only their new CEO seizes the...

    What's going on with reward availability to Europe?

    Thanks - seems like BNE-CDG is a good one. May I ask where this information is from? 1712548402 Just curious, has anyone had any luck with ~30 day EY flights?

    What's going on with reward availability to Europe?

    I think VA has gone from hero to zero in this regard, it was really good everywhere even up to the start of this year, but now I can't find anything to anywhere. I am looking past the summer, to September, even November but still nothing. Yesterday I found one QR flight to AMS amazingly, but...

    China Airlines business class?

    It's not too bad, my only major complaint was the lack of port nor any other dessert wine.

    Australia's newest airline? [Wishlist]

    Much better food in domestic (and international) lounges. Australia is a country of high quality food, what goes on in our airport lounges is embarrassing.

    How can I add it to an existing ticket?

    Is it possible to add a LH flight to SQ return trip?

    I have a return trip with SQ with iteniary being SYD -> FRA, BRU -> SYD. I am wondering if I can now retrospectively add a 3rd flight to the onwards journey from FRA -> AMS with LH (star partner of SQ, which is why I'm hoping it's somehow possible), just so I can avoid doing self-transfer of...

    Error with Velocity Web Site - can't access to book flights.

    I've had the same problem intermittently for about a week, good to see it's not only me.

    Emirates has an issue in Moscow

    Unfortunately it seems that the driver of the truck suffered a stroke, very sad. Nevertheless, the damage is probably just cosmetic, it seems like the truck just clipped the underside of where the landing gear is stored, could probably be fixed relatively quickly.

    Boeing CEO to step down

    They need to bring in an outsider, and a European - American executives only care about money, they are incapable of fixing this problem.

    QF41 Cancelled - options to get to CGK on time

    I thought I'd try here before posting a new thread. I have an insurance claim associated with this cancellation, but the insurer is demanding to know the reason the flight was cancelled. I don't know of course, and the Qantas email simply says it's cancelled - offering no explanation why (I...

    Jakarta Visa on Arrival, is it easy?

    Maybe just try later, could be a temporary problem. Also, you have to do it relatively quickly once you begin, otherwise the session will time out.

    Etihad Business Class from Manila to Europe

    Doesn't Singapore have literally laws around not doing transfer unless it's some approved set of airline combinations? https://www.changiairport.com/en/airport-guide/transit.html So it seems like it's not allowed since these would be separate itineraries.

    Etihad Business Class from Manila to Europe

    I did transit through CGK in the last few weeks and Etihad, and I have to say it's a great strategy, the product is amazing, 787 and a great experience, and even the Plaza lounge at CGK is nice and cool. The only problem is, the airport itself is not great (toilets are always closed for...

    Virgin Australia B737 Max 8

    WSI will be a bogan budget airport anyway, it will only be served by Jetstar. I agree the VA aircraft situation is not great, but what can you do. It's a short-term problem in the grand scheme of things anyway.

    Qantas Project Sunrise goes ahead, 12 new A350-1000s ordered

    I am not, I said in fact, specifically, that I understand that there are many people that would appreciate a direct route, however it seems at least within the confines of this thread, that at least some of them are oblivious to other points of view. Maybe that's something specific to you, and...

    Jakarta Visa on Arrival, is it easy?

    I did recently, I did the visa thing online including payment, so I recommend that - then no need to do anything at the airport.

    Qantas research panel

    So they would pay for lounge but not business class? Seems a bit weird. In my experience companies are either really cheap and won't pay for anything other than an economy ticket or they just pay for business class.
