I used a code from here a while ago, but never provided my own details. So figured I'd throw my hat in the ring. If you'd like to use my referral code, it is: 5094867

Previously I could only buy 24 of the 2021, then it reset recently as I suggested, and another 24 became available. So perhaps if you didn't take up the original 24 you now have 48? My records seem to suggest I was buying the 2021 in July last year, but it's August and the 2022 hasn't been...

I didn't apply as I am planning other visits anyway so will leave that experience a few years down the track perhaps. Not sure if anyone else used up their allocation of the 2021 Alicante earlier this year, but I noticed recently that my allocation has been reset, or extended, and I'm now able...

I never expected my thread to be this big when I started it ;)

I'm not P1, but would have thought P1 might get a Diamond offer for ALL. As I have ALL Platinum already, I wonder if applying for it will give me some extra SNU's? :p

Sorry I couldn’t directly help as I’d already left for my flight, but happy you got into the lounge with @Princess Fiona’s assistance. I remember being a guest many times so it’s always great to be able to guest now I’m in the position – or at least help with it!

I don't have access to statements that far back I am afraid, to be able to tell you how they posted. It was a long time ago. It never concerned me though as I was flying roughly 70 sectors to keep my status on track :p I never tried to be that creative, but as I alluded to earlier, having a...

I also do not believe this to be the case. I once boarded a Dash-8 to find someone sat in one my of seats, and the crew moved them along giving them both back to me :p As an aside, I have some photos from old status runs I did. The only giveaway that you have an extra seat is EXST printed on...

The issue really comes down to the fact that comfort seats only remove the passenger taxes component, not the seat cost component. On a business class seat I imagine the saving would be extraordinarily small because of this. Plus, other than the reason below, comfort seats were designed as a way...

OK I'll ask, what do you get at FoundersCard Elite...? :p I also read that the Qantas discount is 25% from the USA to AU, but 15% in the other direction, though not sure if this is accurate.

The answer is yes, it can be done, and no it doesn't double the cost as the extra seat does not have the same passenger taxes applied to it as the main one (as there's only one passenger). I am proof that it can be done, having once used comfort seats to launch me to Platinum and help me along...

I am also unlikely to hit it again, but knew that one day I would need to clip my own wings and focus on home life, so I've been psyching myself up for a while to lose it. Might have to do a jaunt to SIN and back before my year ends just to enjoy the F lounge(s) a final time.

Yes, '16. They asked if I was a collector, and I sheepishly asked back if owning one makes me that :p Technically two now.

There's also a magnum available if you phone, and they said watch this space for August regarding museum.

By the way, the 2019 Rod & Spur has arrived in the cellar door (and online).

ISTR if you then achieve it on your own you get to put the comp retain back in your pocket for another year, or so anecdotal evidence said.

JH reckons the '07 is drink by this year; the '08 later this decade, but the '12 is by far the stand out in what you picked. Of course, what does he know ;)

You remind me of another user who often made strange remarks about wine. Do you happen to know @Mynameismynameis?

Take out a subscription to James Halliday/Wine Companion? The quote for the 2014 vintage suggests it's up there!

When I booked, stood at the VA service desk, $350 red-e-deal. By the time I left the lounge only Savers were available. By the time I got to the hotel only evening flights were available. Then the text later that night after I'd gone to bed. Between a flight a whole 24 hours later on VA and the...
