Worsening osteoporosis means that I need to think about assistance with my upcoming June/July flights MEL>SIN>LHR & return, all on SQ. On my last visit to the UK in 2019, I accepted the offer of a wheelchair at check-in returning from LHR, and almost regretted it, for I was taken to a...

Travelling from Wales (Neath) by train to Heathrow, I used to take the bus from Reading to Heathrow - and was never sure whether to pay for it separately or as an addition to my rail ticket. But now the new Elizabetn Line seems to offer an alternative, though it seems one has to change at West...

I have now succeeded in changing my July-Aug. SQ J flights MEL-CDG, returning LHR-MEL to a straight MEL-LHR-MEL return in Sept.-Oct., Two aspects puzzle me. In addition to the expected change fee and higher cost of flights outside their promotion period, I waa charged an extra AU$70 for...

I have SQ flights in J MEL-CDG, returning LHR-MEL for July-Aug. next year, booked at the special price for bookings made before 5 Sept. As can often happen with booking so far ahead, my plans have now changed. I now want to change to a straight MEL-LHR-MEL return in Sept.-Oct., and to add on...

I bought a see-through 'washbag' last year from an Edinburgh company called Arcido last year. It proved to be excellent quality as a replacement for the airport liquids etc. zip-lock, and had ample room for hairbush and comb as well. Good quality, sent v. quickly with negligible postage charge...

The old thread is locked so I'm starting this new one. I have some euros locked up in my Qantas Cash (now "Money") card and tried to use some of them today for an online purchase from a French supplier. Purchase wouldn't go through, although well below what is loaded. Are they operating that...

Couldn't fing the Your Questions thread, so hope this is OK to post here. For the short journey GLA to DUB I have a choice of Aer Lingus or Ryan Air. Both have many really poor recent reviews on the Airlinequality website. Aer Lingus travellers report luggage not being loaded or going missing...

Received e-mail reminder to check in for my SQ 208 flight on Sunday, but cna't get it to work, whether I enter the booking referencr or the e-ticket number. KF (Sydney) phone engaged. Anyone else having this problem. I suppose I must simply wait and try again later. ETA tried the phone again...

I have a transit in Athens and am not sure how to handle it or which lounges to look at, if any.. Coming in from Georgia on a very early morning Aegean flight - so that's non-Schengen to Schengen.. Departing from Athens to Bordeaux on another Aegean flight, same PNR - so that's Schengen to...

Earler this month I loaded euros onto my Qantas Cash card in anticipation of a trip to France. (Happened to catch an $AU:Euro exchange rate better than it is currently.) But I tried to use it today to pay for a minor upgrade on an existing Aegean Air booking and it was not accepted, even though...

Does anyone have recent experience of obtaining a visa for Turkey? I have heard that the situation is in flux for US citizens at the moment so was wondering if it has become tricky for other nationalities too. Firstly, I have a 6hr transit in IST en route form SIN to TBS (Tblisi in Georgia). I...

Just received notification with my statment that ANZ are changing from QBE to Allianz for their Premium Cards insurance provider w/e from 11 April 2018. Haven't yet checked the new PDS, but was wondering what AFF experience has been with claiming on Allianz. Is this change for the good or not...

For a forthcoming MEL-ATH return I found the best combination of flights/timings on the LH website. I was able to book PE seats on the LH segments (HKG-MUC and MUC-SIN), but that leaves me with no seat allocation for MEL-HKG on CX or SIN-MEL on SQ, both booked in PE. [No PE on the LH MUC-ATH...

No reply when I tacked this query on the end of another thread, so I'm asking again here. I wanted a (paid) PE booking MEL-IST in June next year. MEL-SIN was fine, but there is no PE on the SIN-IST flight, so I was booked into Y. Now I have enough points to upgrade that to J, but was told I...

Planning a Europe trip? The airlines that are in financial trouble — in one chart To me Turkish is a surprise. And I 'm hoping Aegean will pull through as I'm depending on it to get me from TBS to BOD in July nest year.

Ignore this query. I wrote too soon and there's no option to delete. E-ticket has just come through from SQ. I have booked an award flight on TK using KF miles, and have received the itinerary from SQ, and coughed up for the extra charges. But what happens now? The itinerary says: "If your...

Not rewards related, but thought I'd try asking here. ANZ is adding a foreign currency transaction charge on my Etsy purchases from interstate vendors, e.g. NSW to VIC, and SA to VIC. How long has this been going on and can one contest it? NB: these are direct charges to the credit card...

If one wailisted flight on a multi-sector booking fails to eventuate, can one downgrade just that sector to a lower class while seats are still available at that lower level so as to ensure making a necessary connection? Also is there any possibilty of linking a separately booked short sector...

Anyon know why ANZ Platinum Rewards cards are not included in this Choice comparison of credit card travel insurance? https://www.choice.com.au/travel/money/travel-insurance/review-and-compare/credit-card-and-annual-travel-insurance

I was just about to book my travel to MEL airport when I found this on the SQ website: Does that really mean that if you have checked in online and printed your boarding pass and have only hand luggage, you can go straight to immigration? As SQ have a separate check-in counter for those who...
