    BA Executive Club change to spend-based status earning

    I don’t see how this can be spun as anything other than a massive blow to those crediting to BA, particularly those seeking lifetime status. I will likely continue to credit certain sectors to them where the Avios earning is good but I won’t be anywhere near $40K spend to retain my Gold on BAEC.

    American Airlines - First Class upgrades

    Don’t know about check in but I would say yes it’s possible. You are asking for an “UPP”. That’s what the agent needs to look for.

    Qantas Platinum One experiences?

    I have also had a call from them this year due to a delay on QF5. Sad to think that this proactive service is now seen as a shock when in fact the original SST did actually monitor our flights and get in touch.

    How do Hilton treat you as an Elite?

    Yeh completely agree about the Exec lounge relocation. When I was there they were taking names outside and making us wait for tables. On the upside at least the wine is self pour now.

    Your 2024 year of travel in review

    New Airports NCE, NCL and OTP Best flight? Probably a toss up between BOS-HKG and DOH-DFW both nice and long, great service. Worst flight? WLG-BNE, meal service in J started at the back and no choice except pork once it got to me in 1A. I declined dinner. FA then found a chicken dish in the...

    Hilton Launches Surprise Points Devaluation

    Yep, and the sweet spot for redemptions is stay 5 pay 4 at the lowest redemption rate for that hotel, generally Conrad, WA etc. I rarely use points for anything else.

    Oneworld Lounges at Heathrow (LHR)

    I often go to the BA lounge in T3 in the mornings. It’s lovely and quiet. The CX F lounge has good food in the dining area but it’s very tired, tatty furniture and badly in need of a refurb. Also done a few departures this year from QR at T4. It’s small but very good service, lovely bathrooms...

    Oneworld Lounges at Heathrow (LHR)

    There are several reports over the last few months of CX F Lounge LHR doing exactly the same. I have also had a family member refused access there QF Plat flying BA.

    I haven’t got mine yet, just the Aus Post shipping notification but the P1 gift this year is Pommery 150 Blanc de blancs. After a couple of years of gin, this is a welcome return to bubbles !!!!!

    Denied Entry to QF 1st Lounge Singapore

    The OP said they went to QR instead.

    Denied Entry to QF 1st Lounge Singapore

    My family member was exact same scenario as you. I half expected it and told them the alternatives. To be honest it’s not a huge lounge and if I was entering at a peak time flying QF as a QF elite and not able to get a table / shower etc due to others already in on other carriers I’d not be...

    Denied Entry to QF 1st Lounge Singapore

    This is pretty common and not really newsworthy. The SIN QF F lounge is frequently oversubscribed at peak periods and capacity restrictions enacted as per other OW lounges. One of my family members has been refused access here as QF Plat but flying another OW carrier.

    My QF Xmas PJs arrived tonight. A lot of chatter on the socials about AusPost Notifications etc. None for me, these just turned up unannounced, but very welcome 🤗

    How do Hilton treat you as an Elite?

    Not in my case. I’m fairly similar in US stays to that.
