This year flying with Qatar for the first time in business. I’d heard the food was good but this was next level, every dish was delicious and the accompanying breads so fresh. Have already booked with them again next year thanks to the (American Airlines) points god 😀

The Oneworld website has a QF International lounge after security, and one called the VA lounge for Qatar passengers before passport control. The QF website refers to a new lounge precinct under construction with limited opening hours.

I've just done a similar trip to Europe and my checked bag came in around the 22-23kg mark, so it looks like I'll be fine. It was only really the Alliance baggage allowance I was unsure about. Thanks again for all the replies, it seems the trip should be pretty straightforward. Always...

Hi, I've been lucky enough to get award flights in J to Europe next May using my AA points. The long haul legs are ADL-DOH, then DOH-FRA, both with Qatar. But first I have a flight from BNE-ADL listed as QF1935 operated by Alliance Airlines. This is all on the one booking. I have no knowledge...

Hi All, Apologies if this has already been discussed, I can't find anything on here or Google. I've managed to bag myself a Classic Rewards trip in J from Europe back to Oz next August (miracles do happen :) ). My flights are FRA-NRT and NRT-TPE with JAL, then TPE-BNE with CI. My question is...

Just to report back, had no problems accessing the Al-Mourjan Garden Lounge. I thought it was a gorgeous space, though the breakfast buffet was a bit average. I’ve been in one of the Emirates lounges and the food blew me away, here it was nothing special. It was my first time in DOH, found it...

I was just there in mid-February and the weather was perfect, clear and sunny and around 25C during the day. We stayed in Delhi and did a day trip to Agra that I highly recommend. Delhi to Agra on the train, guide and driver for the day took us to the Taj, Agra Fort and Baby Taj. The whole day...

Lit-flat bed and two Temazepam is the only thing that works for me.

Thanks Everyone, much appreciated :)

Hi, in June I'm flying with QR in J to Europe, with a 2:50 transit time in DOH. Flights are BNE-DOH, then DOH-BCN. I'm QF Platinum and I booked them as award flights using AA points. Can anyone tell me which lounges I "should" have access to and which ones are recommended? I looked on the...

Looks like plenty of good options. many thanks Everyone :)

Sorry, accidentally posted this in the wrong forum. Could a moderator please move it to the Open Discussion forum? Thanks

Hi Folks, Just after any recommendations for a LAX airport hotel. My sister and I are arriving into LAX around 1.00pm on a Monday, with a flight to MIA the next morning. We're looking for something close to the airport, clean and comfortable, some decent dining options and easy to get to and...

Sorry, didn’t check out the showers. I can say the toilets were spotless, complete with Attendant keeping everything nice and tidy.

Now happily ensconced in the Encalm Prive lounge, which is very nice indeed. Very quiet, relaxed atmosphere, good food options, nice staff 😀

Thanks for that, it doesn't sound awkward at all. I'll be back in Taipei late next year on a cruise so will get to see it then. With this trip I will have flown overnight from Europe to Tokyo, then on to Taipei, so my plan is to just go to TPE and hit the lounge for a hot shower and some...

Hi, Next July I have a J rewards flight home from Europe via Taipei, unfortunately the only option I could find requires me to transfer from Songshan Airport to Taoyuan Airport. I land at 17:00 and have seven hours for the transit, so plenty of time, but I'm wondering if anyone has any advice...

Thanks Paul Mc, that is great to hear, it looks very nice indeed. We're also on QF70 in J so sounds like eligibility is there, will be nice to have a quiet space to relax before the flight :)

Hi, any update on the Delhi lounge situation? The QF website says we can access the Encalm partner lounge, while the Oneworld website does not include QF in the list of airlines eligible to use that lounge. Will be flying out of Delhi in February and it would be nice to have somewhere to use. Thanks

I did this exact trip with JAL in July and had no problems, and the transit didn't feel at all rushed. The plane from SYD to HND had the older, herringbone layout. I found the seat smaller than I'd expected, still lie-flat seat (not that that mattered on a daytime flight) but not a lot of room...
