You will be in T3 so the BA Galleries lounge will probably be the best pick. Alternatives include the CX lounge and the AA lounge, which is of course awful, can be be useful if it is quiet while the BA lounge is busy before the two QF departures.

We will foot the bill for the Royals themselves and the dozen or so official staff (although this would be split with New Zealand since the tour spent nearly half the time in NZ). However all the British press (all of the 10 or so daily papers plus the BBC and ITV seem to have sent someone...

25/8/13 0740 MEL-HKG Y to W on CX (I was AB Gold then, MPG were being upgraded to J)

This seems clever, although the traffic will still be appalling. National Express buses to Victoria would still be running, but would be more expensive than your rental. London buses will be running, you could take bus 140 to Hayes and Harlington or 285 to Feltham and catch National Rail...

It is indeed a regular flight, I think they have an entourage of a dozen or so so they will fill the F cabin but not much more. The flight would leave from the regular terminal in Sydney; the ceremonial farewell where the Prime Minister and such see them off was done in Canberra before they flew...

Flying out of MEL soon on SQ218 which departs at five past midnight. I have a function in the city which I am unlikely to get away from until 10.15pm or so, May well get to the airport around 11pm. Will do online checkin obviously but what is the latest I can check in luggage (I need checked...

Re: Receive 5,000 Bonus Points# & your first month cover complimentary when you purch How are people cancelling their policies? The PDS says policies must be cancelled in writing; is there a specific mailing address? Or can I cancel by phone?

Looks very much in the development stage, for example it says 'Singair' (even though this is one of the few existing transfer partners!)

re: "oneworld" award (140K/280K/420K) Planning - The Definitive Thread Yes, but keep in mind not all economy fares are upgradeable (except during occasional promotions).

re: "oneworld" award (140K/280K/420K) Planning - The Definitive Thread A 'oneworld' award will not help you as Dubai-Barcelona and Athens-Dubai are on Emirates, which is not part of the oneworld alliance. You could replace the Emirates legs with going via London with BA, but I would not...

PM sent, let me know if you need any further info.

Great news, poor reporting from the BBC to suggest it was US flights only. Note it only kicks on from April 1st 2015, so no thinking you'll claim it back from the airline for current bookings. It would be interesting to know if Australia and NZ did some heavy lobbying; they would be some of the...

Australian ATM withdrawals are now free, but apparently the ATM operator may charge a fee. Does anyone know if any Australian ATM operators don't charge a fee? (I know for Qantas Cash Westpac and its subsidiaries do not).

Lobbying from US airlines has already seen APD abolished on flights from Northern Ireland (a move that only benefited United, which fly BFS-EWR). BA has been hounding the UK govt on APD (even speaking in favour of an independent Scotland, in the hope it would abolish APD). Given that BA is in...

If you have AA gold status (OW Ruby) you will be able to select seats on BA for free from 7 days before departure, which should be time enough to claim a decent seat. If your AA number is not in your BA booking, ring to add it or add it online via qatar.com manage my booking (does not seem to...

Useful to know. On a semi-related matter, I have the BMW Gold credit card; if I wish to refer family to cards like the Gold charge, how do I do so, if at all?

How did your experiment go, or is it still in process?

TK is currently running a promo where you get 750 miles for updating your details and opting in to emails. I have my doubts if they will post given TK's hopeless IT, but still worth trying: Details here: Turkish Airlines - Update Your Information and earn up to 1.000 Bonus Miles -...
