Hello, I don't think you can fly bkk-sez or sin-sez, the only way is via colmbo or Mumbai.

I cant justify purchasing the MH fare, as I will need to use UL for the CMB-Seychelles leg anyway as that is the only way to get there from Asia (unless flying to Mumbai). If I use points for SIN-CMB-SEZ it comes to 28,000 points...if I just get CMB-SEZ then that is 20,000 points ( times all...

I know it's a short flight, but we'll have already flown Mel-Sin and will be tired from that. Yeah we will be ready for a sleep, hence why I don't want to be in econ as too uncomfortable and impossible for a nap ! We booked Mel-Sin in Jetstar starclass for $449 each. I thought this is a cheap...

Thanks, that is good to know if I can somehow snag the seats !

Thanks for the info re J seats. I think UL does release them, but it seems sporadic and more on day time flights or early morning flights, this 8.05pm flight never seems to have them and I have been checking for 2 months for this date. Good idea re MH option, called QF to see if I could use the...

hello, We arrive in Singapore on the Melb-Sing Jetstar flight on 12 May 2017, and need to get the 20:05 Sri Lankan Airlines flight to Colombo. After 7 hrs to Sin, and a 3 hr layover, I am not looking fwd to flying this next sector in Econ. The full fare J seat is $800 aud approx per pax., which...

I forgot to post back on the outcome, I twisted his arm and made him fly J also :)

Thanks, I don't need a package as I already have my resort selected. Yes, I tend to agree re the long sector..the limited pics of the plane interior look like velour bus seats ! maybe the daytime Jetstar Star class sale fare, (not wasting points on flight) to Sing, then SQ early morning flight...

Hi There, Trying to go to Maldives in March, cheaply, but comfortably. All the QF FF business seats to Singapore are long gone, only JQ left, and they don't really suit. Then today I realised you can fly direct from Hong Kong to the maldives, with Mega Maldives??...weird website, they seem to...

100% get a hotel. I havent been there for years but back then it was not a great place to kill 2 hrs, let along half a day :-)

Thanks, I didn’t even consider that option. Cheap amount of points for J flight too. I did want to return via Asia though as need to call into Chiang Mai....but the J’burg route might be handy for the trip over at least. Will need to check the schedules and see how the Air Seychelles flights...

Hi gurus. I want to fly to Sez next October with FF points. I also want to fly as direct as posssible and business class. I was wrapt to hear of the EK alliance and was counting down until April 2013 to be able to spend the points with EK for my holiday in Oct/Nov 2013. I thought that even if I...

Sorry for such a basic question, I keep getting stupid times like 2 hrs before, 3 hrs before on the websites. I arrive in Auckland at 30 mins past midnight. Am going to Novotel for a quick nap. Flight leaves at 7.00am. I figure I should be able to checkin at 6am surely ? with just carry on ?

Yep, true. I guess I meant couldnt make use of any FF points, or earn any that were useful for that matter. Good to hear that it's worth the trip. I've already been to Maldives a few times, and MRU looks like best of both worlds, with a bit more to do, easy to move around etc, choice of...

yeah I know, but i guess more chance of bombing out to sleep as soon as on board....well for me anyway...:oops: This desitination is not simple to get to...I've even tried all the combos going via Asia but really that just drags it out further. Hopefully it's worth the effort !

I think MK will use QF lounge in Melb, which I have a couple of passes for anyway, so no big deal there. Yeah I'd probably be annoyed by swapping pax as well, if they were making a big ruckus and noise...but otherwise wouldn't care as long as there was only ONE person there at any given...

Thankyou for all the marvelous responses ! I was laughing all evening about the " out of his zone" comment and all the others. Ok, I feel comfortable now.:cool:

Hi AFF members, Flying to Mauritius later this year and am tossing up whether to fly business as it's 11.25 hrs from Melb, and they are not exactly a flash airline... my husband refuses to pay the extra $$ and is happy in econ as he is able to get into a "zone' whilst flying, and whY does not...

Hi, I have a $1850 credit with Virgin as I cancelled my Coco's Island flights. I have plenty of time to use the credit, however, it just doesn't work with anything I want to do in the way of travel over next 18 months. I have 150,000 QF FF points, and really want to go to the Seycelles or...

I prefer Seminyak over Jimabran Bay or Nusa Dua. It has nice boutiques, and excellent restaurants. There's a great Japanesse restaurant called kuni's and there's good Italian and a gorgeous spanish restaurant somewhere in the back streets. We stay at Disini Villas. In my opionion these are...
