Thanks for all the answers. I was indeed using the JL check-in system. I just went in again and we have checked in except my wife is 4 rows away from me... 😳 All the other seats are unavailable. ......... Sigh...

If you are viewing this as one trip, doesn't it need to end where it started? Which would be CGK. Brighter minds will come along and confirm or deny but I have always assumed that.

Hello. Currently in the middle of an OWA award (so far so good!) However, I'd appreciate some advice... We are in FRA flying to NRT in J with JAL tomorrow. Just had the 24 notification that I should be able to check in but JAL is not letting me do it online. The system says we have to do it...

Sorry for the delayed responses. Too much fun traveling. ✈️ Your points are well made of course and I have re-arranged things so we maintain the original (and cheaper) booking schedule. It is a trap for young players tho. If you are going to require flexibility, book direct.

I am looking for any experiences regarding changing return dates for my Avis rental car. The back story is that I booked an Avis car from LHR (returning into GLA) through QANTAS, for 29 days. No problems with that. However, as it turns out, I wanted to return the car a few days earlier. I...

Just read Matt's experience; https://www.australianfrequentflyer.com.au/virgin-australia-involuntary-downgrade/. If he has so much trouble what hope have we mere mortals have!

I believe they are moving or renovating very soon . The kitchen is incredibly noisy and it’s pretty cramped. There is another lounge as well but 080 is the QF etc place to go. Only within 3 hrs, I think

So, here is my promised update on transiting at Bangalore. I'm not really sure that this is going to be helpful because our circumstances were unusual but, here goes. It's not a pretty sight... To recap, my wife and I were flying SYD-DUB with a 14-hour transit in BLR. The transit was from QF...

As it happens, I am flying tomorrow (Fri) morning from Sydney and was going to do an update. We are staying at 080 hotel although I am still unclear if it is genuinely airside as they have told us to get Indian Visas! But give me another 24-48 hours and all will be revealed.... 🤣

It’s interesting seeing these two responses. I know it’s not entirely representative but I have been wondering if they are getting their act together (at least in fixing call centre fubars. Is it possible that all the fixer uppers are *gosh* well trained and maybe local?

I’m sure the instructions are there but an over riding thing would be an ABN. Did they not provide a reason why? I have found their support helpful so worth contacting them if not.

Hello and thanks for the info. It is indeed insightful and useful. Love the duty-free tip!

Hello. I am wondering if anyone has some hands-on, recent experience in Iceland. I have heard it is a card-focused country which is fine except I seem to be completely unable to get a travel card with Iceland Krona. At least in Australia, they don't exist. This means that every time I tap and...

Yes, thank you for pointing this out to me too @tassie6 . It worked a treat the other day once I got past the bot, using Operator. New ticket following a flight time change. A breath of fresh air...

I had a similar experience this week. Elsewhere I was pointed to FB Messenger. Once you get past the bot. But I had excellent help. Shouldn’t have needed to follow up for the new ticket but that’s what worked. There was a keyword to put in the conversation but don’t recall it. Will go look and...

Thanks. I will treat it with the level of confidence it deserves.

This thread has been very quiet for just about 2 months! As I am leaving in 2 weeks on a OWA I thought I'd check CMT. It's nearly up to date except for a time change for a flight a couple of weeks ago so clearly not effectively responding to the quality data it used to have. At first glance...

Thank you. I didn't know that. Very useful. I have an automated response that makes sense and I will pay attention for a response.

Sigh. Messenger was just a bot. Will persevere. I had really thought that hate energy was all over. The thought of ringing a call centre again appals me

Phew! OK. I will do as you suggest. Thanks!. One would think they'd send one...... 😳
