Not that Celebrity aren't doing the gouge in other ways, but that article is just sensationalism, not a genuine trend against solos. I've only seen it arise in very rare situations before, and checking it I believe to be the same issue. The pricing difference doesn't even exist now so it may...

Put a retro claim through on JAL.

And now there's this, on a 2 month old jet. https://www.smh.com.au/world/north-america/alaska-airlines-flight-makes-emergency-landing-after-window-chunk-of-fuselage-blow-out-20240106-p5evkg.html

The funny thing is how predictable what would be worn before seeing it having only read the headline.

From the wording it's not about a doubled up, or extra conversion fee. The amount will be charged in USD alone. However, it's to inform - primarily US - customers that even though they are getting charged in USD, the charge will be a foreign transaction. It's the same as if we get a charge in...

Actually, it wouldn't be. You would need to enter the SQ FF number, leave that until upgrade, and then change to VA FF number once the upgrade is done (I'm assuming there are no issues doing this.) This is the message about upgrading with miles you get with a Velocity number entered "Your...

Cruise programs aren't like flight programs in that they don't generally give you points that give you free cruises; also most cruises are round trips, not to take you from a to b. If you want to get from a to b, especially on points, best off looking only at flights.

Not really a good example, or comparison. Since no 3 was set up by number 1 (as they are entitled to, and is the same in the US). Whereas Southwest is and has always been an independent company, so takeover laws would come into effect in that scenario, which don't apply with your first. And...

While I agree generally, from the way it's written I believe Collinson is doing the gathering, then passing the details on to Virgin who I expect would only be generating keys on request and who will then contact the customer. I expect Collinson will only pass them on in batches (maybe daily...

It's certainly a thing with other companies. Perhaps Qantas is more caring/less concerned about its finances in this case... but there's not a lot of evidence to support that.

The second is an interesting article, regarding pricing. There's some days I'm looking at next year for some time, and Virgin has consistently been priced above Qantas for the same main route for months, average about $100 more. So much for them being the value option (ie. prices vary, but...

Would be good, wouldn't it. A private operator did run that service when the terminal opened, but didn't restart that service after covid and it didn't attract great volumes. Unfortunately it was still a relatively lengthy walk from the ferry to the cruise terminal and, on top of all the other...

If you never want/need to fly them again, that may be fine. But if you do, they may put a block on future bookings since you are seen as having an outstanding debt if you do that.

The ship was meant to be based in Melbourne this year. Key market is Sydney though so they cancelled some Melbourne itineraries to relocate briefly to Sydney to build awareness. When it returns next year though they're balancing it around as it's a tough sell from Melbourne alone.

Exactly. Stopped being released since June... not back yet.

What's with making it fixed term as well? It doesn't say you're replacing someone, and obviously the job is not going away. Looks like an easy way to get rid of you if they want, at lowest cost...

Of course, it'll be a bit of a moot question if Qatar doesn't return long haul business award availability.

With that sort of mafs, must be News limited.

Yes... but then they also intended to retire them from 2021 - but then found they would have given up revenue opportunities so brought them back.

It's quite possible for Qantas to compete against China Eastern on that route.
