I'll see you all there too! Thanks Red Roo, once again for the opportunity.

Following! Will also be in Cyprus for two days. Have booked the ATSY hotel in Nicosia.

Its very difficult to change FF numbers (irregardless of VA or *A) on a Krisflyer booking in my experience before the day of departure. At check-in, just show them your VA card, and they can do it then. Benefits for WP are what's listed on the VA website. Lounge access in stations with a...

Yes, I received this a couple years back, with a month to go for re-qualification - 2000 euros back then as well (2013 from memory).

Looks like a brilliant time was had. Isn't flying into Longreach on an Qantas plane a surreal thing?! ps. Well, it did in fact rain in Longreach, and a large part of the central west interior, last night - much so, that the road from Longreach to Barcaldine has been closed due to flooding!

Looking at AKL-SIN-MNL award on Christmas day - AKL-SIN available, but not SIN-MNL, so I booked AKL-SIN first online. Added the MNL flight as a waitlist by calling them up and got the e-mail notification that a seat has been made available yesterday. Called up SQ to confirm the flights and...

Depending on schedule, I'd be keen!

Pier and Wing are both excellent lounges - nice showers, day rooms /cabanas. QF is also an excellent alternative - I found the service there to be the best of the three (surprisingly/unsurprisingly?); they even remembered my name when I came back a week later! I think lounge hopping is an...

To update - just matched to Platinum until 02/17. Time to use those upgrade vouchers!

Searching up flight from SIN-MNL on Christmas day; and it appears that Y and J are blocked out on all flights - without even giving me the option of waitlisting (except on F - for which I have waitlisted). From other people's experiences, how likely is it that SQ will release some seats...

Gave them a call yesterday re. status match with AA EXP - they said to send the e-mail through and they'd assess. CM are a decent airline from my limited experience of 3 flights! Lets see how it goes.

You have access to the Al Reem lounge - which is closest to Terminal 1.

And when did you status match if you don't mind me asking? Just sent off my status match today!

Yeah, I think so. I headed straight for the immigration counters, and they accepted card payments there!

QAR100 (exactly the same as 100AED/38AUD). Payable by credit card at the immigration counter - they don't take AMEX (I think). Alternatively, if you don't have a credit card they accept, there is a QNB (Qatar National Bank) money exchange booth just to the left of the escalators, where you can...

I'll be arriving in BNE at around 830am that Monday - will be more than happy to guest you in if you're still keen? - just shoot me a message.

Point of note; used VA Amex Plat to book PER-SYD flight today, even though it's not on the map any more. No questions asked! Saved me $600!!

No I'm not unfortunately. I didn't see a VA representative at the Premier Lounge (which they use), or at the transit counter next to immigration. I know VA doesn't have OLCI for their international flights, so I think you might be out of luck there. Sorry! Do let us know how you go!

Apologies, airside!!
