    Congrats Simon ... :D

    Maybe you could burn some of those points to SYD - HKG so you can compare the new Oz 'Flounges' on the block with the Wing.

    I hope it has been worth it considering the trials and tribulations you have been through in the last few weeks.

    Cheers all. My eye is already on next year's requal ;)

    @serfty Next flight planned is syd-nrt-hkg and then hkg-sin-nrt-dfw-lax-jfk so in two weeks I can hit F lounges in SYD, SIN,HKG,NRT,DFW and LAX in two weeks ;) Maybe SOB should be recalled "The F Lounge run" ;)

    I recommend a thorough medical before you undertake such a grueling trip. ;)

    (Although you will have some respite at DFW.)

    :idea: Remember to get your free T-Mobile 24 hour card at LAX F/L, can be used in any A/C with T-Mobile access.

    Ooh - great news re LAX T-mobile. I paid for a t-mobile (and Boing) day pass - not bad at $10 (which I paid personally rather than recharging to the company) - I shall look forward to that at LAX. I wonder if they have them at DFW. Oh just realised no F lounge at DFW.

    Hmm - may have to route via ORD given there is A0 on my NRT-DFW flight at the moment...

    I am sorry to inform you that phrase has already been copyrighted by Mal, kpc and myself. Any use of the phrase should be preceded by a royalty payment. ;)

    There is another F lounge run in the planning for the near future....
