Congratulations.:lol:

Now starts the endless planning and re-planning of WP re-qualification.:p Just as much fun as the actual flying itself.


Thanks. It's been a long time coming (the qual not the thanks ;)).

Already started the re-qual planning. notzac and serfty have given me some creative ideas that'll allow me to see some places i'd not thought of going to before, so it'll be a fun re-qual (unlike the way I got WP this time!)

Congrats on the requal! Now onwards to WP? ;)

Thanks, they seemed to have re-assessed my yesterday:

Status credits earned from 01 Nov 2008: 600
Additional Status credits required by 31 Oct 2009 to attain Platinum: 800

3 1/2 days to get another 800.....Hmm, maybe a bit tough to do that :)

Always next year...

MEL-LHR F return + a side return trip in J? :mrgreen:

Just kidding.
 
Travel done for October:

01 OCT 2009 SQ227 SIN-MEL J
07 OCT 2009 SQ228 MEL-SIN J
(41 % of the way to retaining NZ gold)

Still got 465 to go by end of Jan to retain QF status ... a status run might to BKK on CX in J is looking tempting (120 SCs for ~$400 AUD).
