Well done! Worth all the hassles, I am sure.

 

[tuapekastar]

Now to hang on to it....

 

[littl_flier]

Congrats Simongr, all the "unnecessary" routings were worth it!

 

[Febs]

*Claps*
Well done.

 

[serfty]

Congrats Simon ...

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.

 

[Keith009]

Congratulations Simon! Enjoy burning your miles on the J RTW award.

 

[JohnK]

Congratulations Simon.

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

 

[Ric]

Way to go!! Congratulations Simon!

 

[simongr]

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"

 

[Shano]

Well done Simon

We expect a lounge comparison report too you know....

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.

 

[simongr]

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...

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

Then simon should be asking if you have a mileage program for frequent use of the copyrighted term
