Thanks! Looks like having a shower will be on the cards.

Flying CX J on QF redemption JFK-HKG-PER. What lounge will we have access to at Terminal 8 at JFK? Our flight leaves at 1.35am so thought we’ve have dinner in the city then head out and hopefully have a shower in the lounge. Any advice? Thanks.

Yes, it was definitely worth a try. I have to say, although Flightright were unsuccessful they were pretty good with updates and asking for extra information.

An update...nearly two years later Flightright were unable to obtain compensation under EU261 from Emirates.

Good to know, thanks @sinophile888, I’ll apply for an upgrade and cross my fingers.

QFF Bronze here looking to book 2 x Classic Awards from LHR to PER. My question is, are there only ever Y seats available on this route? Or are PE and J already snapped up by the time I can see availability? Currently I can see only Y available up to 17 June 2020. Thanks.

^^ agree, the LLL Align pant is sooo comfortable, I wear them on all flights.

Ozbeachbabe, paid flights internally, no flights available on the Qantas website from HNL on 28 September.

Not hiring a car at LAX, will hire one once we’re finished at Disneyland. Thanks, will book a private shuttle.

Hello experts, thanks again for your suggestions. Just wanted to let you know I secured our return flights, 4 x JFK-HKG-PER in J using points, 5 x Classic Awards weren’t available to me so I paid for child #3. We’ve decided to drive from Anaheim to San Francisco, stopping a night each at Morro...

I have rupees now, any suggestions on amount? Thanks for any help.

We have an organised work trip/tour next week to Sri Lanka, spa treatments are included. Would tipping in US dollars be okay? How much would you think? Thanks for any advice.

No, our return dates haven’t been released yet. Have I done something wrong? First time planning multiple stops with a big number of points....appreciate any advice ozbeachbabe.

Wow thanks everyone for these brilliant replies. I really appreciate it. I’ll let you know what we decide. Thanks again.

Scash, our original plan was to fly in J from Perth to Hong Kong to JFK but nothing available as I’m QFF Bronze. Flying Y to HNL is doable (we’ve done it before and it’s nit so bad). We can get J flights from JFK to get us home so that’s why we inverted our itinerary.

HI, sorry for the delay in response. We've gone back and forth over our itinerary and as we are funding the flights with points it was touch and go before we were lucky enough to score 5 x Classic Awards on our chosen fly out date for PER-SYD-HNL to start our trip. Hawaii is not new for us but...

Update: we decided to reverse our trip and commence our holiday in Hawaii as flying PER-SYD-HNL was bearable in Y and more classic awards looked to be available. I've been checking each day at 10.00am QLD time as I've read when this is when awards are released, no idea if it's true but it...

Care to comment on our itinerary for our family of 5 (kids aged 7, 9 and 11) trip September/October next year? Not sure about Chicago and if we should instead do 3 extra nights exploring California. Hawaii - 6 nights Los Angeles - 3 nights Anaheim: Disneyland - 4 nights Chicago - 3 nights New...

Rydges has a day rate room, right outside International arrivals.

What about if we reversed our trip and started with Hawaii and ended in New York? Or at least flying to Hong Kong or Dubai then to Perth from the east coast of the US? Can do Y in most sectors but prefer J for the 10+ hour flight home.
