    Has anyone been able to permanently request not being allocated an exit row seat?

    Because I suffer from really bad industrial deafness (can't properly hear someone talking to me when there is a lot of background noise or in a crowded place where people are all talking such as a pub) I decline exit row seats when the system allocates them to me (as I wouldn't be able to hear...

    VPN's for use in China - are there any good choices other than Nord?

    I tried using TotalVPN when connecting to the hotel wifi at various Pullman's and Mercure's on my last trip to China a couple of months ago, the best I could describe the experience was somewhere between extremely frustrating and a waste of time. Has anyone found any good VPN's that work...

    Baggage allowance for QFF'ers flying on EK tickets on EK flights?

    This seems to be one of those pieces of information that is buried deeply somewhere but is difficult to find.
