hi to all out there!
as i said i am a bit of a rookie on this and get quite confused by some of your abbreviations.. Just wanted to know if you out there think its v helpful being a PAID UP member of Expert Flyer? (only had trials before). What exactly can it GIVE you? (apart from good seat maps?) . i have read about people requesting seats next to them to be Blocked? how can this be done? also that it can alert you when an Upgrade to J class is available on your chosen flight. i have asked for this and all it ever says is "0" seats, seems hard to fathom. yet when i call Qanats re my flight they say there is only 50 % seats gone in J?
also can anyone tell me if they have had SIGNIFICANTLY MORE success in getting QF Upgrades from going to Silver and Gold from Q Club Bronze? I am almost Silver and after US flight and a lot of Status Credit hunting will be Gold before my Qantas Club Anniverary. This will cost a lot in $$ so i wonder if its really wortht it?? ( my main hope is to eventually buy slightly dearer Econ fares (that are Upgradeable) and hope to get them as a Gold member? any opninions?
also will be flying PE from Syd to Lax on QF 11 (A380) and be sitting in 36K. Does anyone have experince of THIS seat? have asked for Bus Upgrade and will be Silver by then. Found out J cabin only half sold and flight only 3 weeks away. What do you think my chances are?
On ret will be on QF 74 S Fran to Syd (747 400) sitting on seat 25 A. Any ideas on this seat? Been told it only a 3 class plane (Y, PE and J) does that mean it will be an old Bus Class seat (skybed that you can still get in j on some 747.s?) is that good?
really appreciate answers from you clever people!
thanks
