first class

Hey Guys! So I am going to get my Velocity Plat status soon and will be flying with Etihad after getting it so I am extremely excited about using their First Class Lounge! In fact this will be the First time I will be in a First Lounge usually its Business. So I was wondering if anyone has...

Dear AFF Brains Trust, Does anybody know how seats in the F cabin are allocated on QF127/128 to/from HKG on the A380 now that no F seats are sold? I'm booked on QF128 on an A380 for July 2017, currently Gold, but just about to be Platinum. It's a QF coded ticket, but marketed by AY. I can't...

Hi all As part of my Feb USA trip we are flying LAX-SFO, in First Class. A couple of articles on ABT and Point Hacks suggest that if I book through Virgin Australia, I will get free lounge access at LAX. How does this work? How will the Loft Lounge reception staff know to let me in, given I...

Hi All, Wanted to check if anyone knows of or if there is a list anyway of destinations one can fly First Class out of Perth (or Sydney). Am going to be taking the wife away for her 30th and figured we can give first class a try for the first time, something neither of us have done yet but...

The goal (for me) is to travel a long haul flight - be it to London/LAX/NYC etc. in first class before I turn 25. I am currently 21 so I have four years which I don't know if that's a lot of time to accomplish it or not, to me it sounds really fast considering I have only ever travelled economy...

Hi all, I'm looking to maximise my point redemptions with KrisFlyer with 120k worth of points. I don't have enough for a return business class so i was thinking: Redeem economy flight for SYD - LHR (36125 points w/ discount) Redeem business class for LHR - SYD (80750 points w/ discount)...

I've searched, and googled, and read, and still can't find the answer- Apologies if its been asked, I couldn't find it on here either. Has anyone seen/heard the schedule for refitting the new First Suites on the A380's? Everything I've read has said "hopefully" and other vague descriptors...

Hi all, I need to go Syd-Kul return. I have miles that I need to use up and I have just a touch under 130000 sq miles. So will be doing first class. Doing it for the Xmas period. I can't seem to book first class online for this route as I don't think there is F for the kul sector. How do I...

Hi all, Bronze member with points to burn....well only 250K(missed the FREE ANZ QFF 75K CC offer grrrr) Looking at getting to Helsinki on points in first class. Trying to find flights in First class: 1. Only Business Class icon showing as Reward option on trolling every month including into...

As per the title, there are reports that Platinums do not currently have access to the reopened First Class lounge (as they did in the past). We fly through AUH next week, could someone confirm what the situation is? Thanks.

So the short story is I grew up on a family farm two hours north of Melbourne. My Mum died suddendly and unexpectedly when I was travelling in the UK a few years ago. Then Dad developed bowel cancer and fought bravely for 12 months but lost his battle. It meant that myself and my two sisters...

My review of my first ever flight in F

Looking for business class seat or first class seat Melbourne to Los Angeles but seems to have no availability only available is economy class leaving Melbourne newt February 2017. Is this the current standard for Qantas, thought the pattern was to book approximately 11 and half months ahead to...

Hi...have a MEL-SYD-LHR-PRA flight booked on QF in a few weeks......SYD-LHR is in F...but MEL-SYD is J (had to route via SYD onto QF1......do I have access to the First Class checkin in MEL..or do I have to use the domestic international transfer checkin desk?..and I assume in LHR I have access...

This is actually a pretty good deal. I generally pay for F and the carriage is usually peaceful and empty (maybe not now once the TK flyers get on there ) Free Heathrow Express first class upgrade for Star Alliance Gold - Australian Business Traveller

I have been on a Round the World Trip from Sydney to London, New York, Tokyo, Hong Kong & Singapore on a few different airlines (Qantas, JAL, Cathay & British Airways). Here is my review of the first flight: Flight: QF1 Carrier: Qantas Aircraft - Airbus A380-800 Class: First Class...

I'll finally reach Qantas Platinum tomorrow once the points from last week's flights are processed, and was hoping to access the Cathay first class lounge on Tuesday. Has anyone experienced difficulties accessing the lounge without a FF membership card that displays oneworld emerald status? I...

Is anyone able to find availability for 2 first class one way award seats, ideally with minimal changes and waits (for my parents in their 80's) we have plenty Aadvantage miles. They are northern England and able to get to NCL, MAN, GLA, EDI fairly easily. Thanks for any help.

Despite a search, I can't seem to find whether it might be possible to check in early for QF62 NRT - BNE? It is an evening departure and was hoping for a mid afternoon check in. Will have luggage to check in which I know makes it difficult. I am QF platinum so can use the first class check in...
