See Qantas approved to take over Virgin’s Tokyo capacity , Sydney flight switching to NRT, which it has to given two new HND flights and one new slot

Desks are getting harder to find in hotel rooms, so I like seeing a listing with them in, however I agree Laundry is important, and I am wary when they say laundry vs guest laundry, I hate exorbitant charges for them to wash my clothes, often the underwear charge is dearer than buying a fresh...

QF won’t drop NRT, it’s too much of a hub for their codeshares with JQ which is why they are bringing back a SYD NRT service. LOL, we didn’t have to stay at the airport for our recent trip, we left our hotel at 6, were in the lounge playing with the beer robot by 7. Given we were on a week long...

Qantas have been given the Virgin slot so the change is only one additional flight to HND for them. I’d expect NRT flights to remain in terms of numbers, but change in some destinations, even maybe replace some of the JQ ones.

In case you’re wondering……

Daytime HND-SYD flights have been consistently empty My flight at the end of August had 25 in Y, and talking to the crew they said this wasn’t unusual, Japan-Australia flight traffic prefers overnight flights apparently, I don’t.

You need to update that to a GaN version, along with a power board that’s all I need these days. In the unlikely event I am on a cruise, I will leave the power board at home. I do usually have some wooden cutlery, just in case.

If the flight is close to full seat selection is unlikely to open up until the flight is handed over to airport control in Altea, if it does bonus, however Altea normally holds in reserve seats for airport control to assign on a need basis/PCV status.

Seat selection becoming unavailable means the aircraft is close to being 100% sold, from memory it becomes unavailable at 90 or 95%

The base points often posted weeks before the bonus so a wait may be in order, then escalate it
