Hello fellow AFFF members.
My wife and I are about to head off for a few months on a RTW trip (Lone4 fare).
I recently made it to Platinum so I was hoping to get some quick tips before we head off (so we can both enjoy all of the WP benefits of course!)
Our trip looks like this:
CBR-SYD (Y) SYD-AKL (J) AKL-HNL-LAX-EWR, LGA-DFW-FLL-ORD-LHR-ARN-MAD-FCO, LHR-SIN-MEL-AKL (Lone4), AKL-SYD (J), SYD-CBR (Y).
I been looking at the Platinum benefits and understand that both my wife and I will be able to use any oneworld 'first' lounge where available.
What are peoples recent experiences in the international first lounges in the US / Europe / Singapore - are there any particular ones we should aim for / avoid? Do you need to book day spa treatments in advance in the Qantas F lounge (we will have around 3.5 hrs in the lounge)?
I was thinking of using the QF first lounge in Syd, QF J lounge in Honolulu; AA F lounges in LAX, NY and ORD, (not sure about FLL or DFW but I assume the best lounge is the AA J lounge?), BA first lounge and arrivals at LHR, IB lounge at MAD and FCO, Qantas F lounge in SIN and MEL.
We are flying Jet* on the SYD-HNL leg and were advised that we will receive the meals / entertainment / comfort packs, plus 2 x 23kg bags for each of the Lone4 legs. We were told that our bags would be interlined from AKL to HNL, but Platinum desk were unsure whether we would be able to receive our Jet* ticket from the AKL Qantas Business/First checkin counter.
Does anyone know if we will be able to receive both tickets in AKL or are we going to have to check in at the Qantas F desk when we arrive in Syd Intl airport?
