    QFF Platinum requesting release of extra Classic award seats?

    I actually preferred to take the QF26 as I'd be in Tokyo anyway, however QF 34 showed better availability across the the buckets and better odds, or so i thought.

    What has been the longest time for anybody from being approved to receiving the card? I was approved by SMS and email on June 28 but have still not received the card. I got another SMS today saying that I was approved and that to go to a link to activate the card. I'm starting to get...

    1 Day in Dubai. What to see, do and where to stay?

    Thank you for your suggestions. I ended up booking the QF9 arrival at about 7am with a QF 1 departure at 2am. To my surprise, I was actually eligible for Dubai connect, so some accommodation and transport is sorted. As I'm connecting to QF 9 from QF453 ex SYD, where do I collect my vouchers for...

    1 Day in Dubai. What to see, do and where to stay?

    Thanks for the advice and for that link. Looks really good. With regards to my flight was to arrive into Dubai on QF9 and depart at 2.10am the following morning to LHR on QF1. Do you think that is better?

    1 Day in Dubai. What to see, do and where to stay?

    In about 2 weeks I'll be flying with QF in J to LHR. I was thinking of arranging my flights so that I'd have about 24 hours in Dubai. I'm tempted to go QF9 with a 0705 arrival to DXB then QF9 the following day with an 0905 departure. In my time in Dubai at the very most I was thinking I could...

    Last Minute Long Weekend in Manila - What area to stay?

    I'm probably a little late, but I'd recommend the City Garden Grand Hotel in Makati. I've stayed there twice, once in September and again in December and couldn't fault the place. I've found that it's about an hour Uber ride to the airport from the hotel.

    QF568: Who to believe? 26/1/17

    I've always wanted to fly on the upper deck of a 744, but the opportunity has never really been there. On 26/1/17 QF568 flying PER-SYD is scheduled to be a 332 according to the QF website, however EF shows it as being operated by a 744. Which one do i believe in this case? I would...

    I suppose not having to deal with the TSA is in my favour.

    Travelling with cremated remains

    On September 30, I will be travelling from Manila to Sydney with my recently deceased fathers cremated remains. What things do I need to be aware of with regards to bringing it back? I haven't decided on which airline I will travel with. With Qantas for example, it seems easy enough. I just...

    Tokyo and Hong Trip Ideas and Suggestions

    I've had a look through some of those trip reports and my anticipation to visit has increased even more than what it already is. I'll keep Kyoto in mind, as we will now most likely be doing a Mt Fuji day tour. Assuming we do both, what would a suggested itinerary be? Chances are is that food...
