We went to Ho Chi Minh City (+ Chu Chi Tunnels), Hanoi and Ha Long Bay for 12 days in August 2019. We then went to Ho Chi Minh City (+ Mekong Delta), Hue, Hoi An and Danang for 13 days in January 2024. Hanoi was too humid and hot for my liking in August...we had to retreat to our hotel between...

This highly irritates me...

This PP lounge at Jnb is very nice...too bad we only had time for a 30 min bfast in the lounge.

Ignore what they have been told. QR F pax should just turn up to QF F lounge. ;)

I do this a lot..ie use on arrival

If your Qr flight is not late, this connection is doable. I did this last Nov coming off the same Qr flight but had a domestic connection on Qf 3 hours after arrival. I was one of the first off the plane as was in J but had to be manually processed as had come from Aftrica and Smart Gate...

Seriously stuck on board on the ground for 4+ hours (by the time you get going) would really test my patience!

Flew UA Syd-Sfo-Jfk rtn in Y in 1999. Have never flown them again and not planning to!

2 of my 3 stays in Indonesia have now posted with the bonus 5000 pts. :)

Va had a Syd-Mel return for $178 pp so booked last night, and both myself and kpc +1 are confirmed for the dinner. Payment for 2 just TFd. :) @boomy and possibly @Aeolus may also come and I have told them to pay asap if they are definitely coming ;)

Noted in case I need to ring Aeroplan!

"Qatar Airways is close to finalising a deal to acquire a minority stake in Virgin Australia"

That was quick..funds all back in my crrdit card acct.

I would be shocked if it worked!

That corrugated road in Namibia video brings back nightmares

Like others, the Qf pts for the first stay (1 August) booked under the original offer (prior to its revision to a mininum of $100) has posted but no sign of the 5000 bonus Qf pts todate....

I cancelled mine 2 days ago but I was never told I had to cancel by a certain date by the Qf rep that rang me last Monday. She said she will put a note in the booking that I can cancel for a full refund if I chose not to fly.

A good / excellent camera with a long zoom lens is essential for photographing wildlife. The first photo is taken by me wirh some coughpy pocket Sony camera, the last 2 my +1 took with her expensive camera with long zoom lens! Photos taken just before sunrise at Chobe National Park, Botswana.

The sand dunes in Namibia are amazing so Sossusvlei is worth a visit if you visit Namibia.

Agree. We stayed a night at the beginning of the trip and 3 nights at the end. It has a good (not great) restaurant, is very cheap cf IC, and is about a 10-15 min indoor walk ftom the terminal. You can also eat at the many restaurants and food court at the domestic (Term B) end of the airport...
