    Cost for airlines transferring you to a rival

    I wasn’t late to check-in at the airport. There were still some people lining up there. Actually I was the last one to check-in before it closed. I was surprised that Etihad A320 was full. A RJ ground staff was so kind to me and tried to persuade her workmates to let me to board on the plane...

    Australian Air Travel 1993

    Don't forget that camera was big, heavy and bulky in 1990ish. They had to use shoulder and hands to hold the camera!!! I have one too but light and small! ;)

    Favourite airline on-board freebie?

    - I got a teddy bear from SQ... It's so cute. - I got a nice Swiss plush plane - that's a Swiss' signature! - I was surprised an EK flight attendant gave me a duty-free bag during boarding - what's inside - boxes of first class chocolate, large bottle of water, few Y amenity kits, lots of stuff...

    Article: My 3 Favourite Airline Points in 2024

    I may be biased because I'm not sure whether it's worthy to buy a plane ticket by using points+pay or points with different airlines. When I used my aeroplan points+pay to buy a Virgin Australia ticket for the domestic flights, I'm suprised that it's more $$ than Virgin Australia's points+pay...

    Short turnarounds: Have you flown back from your destination with the same crew?

    I forgot to tell you that you live in BNE or PER (maybe LHR), you will be able to recognize the long-haul crew because they have few staff in their bases. Even on the train, I was able to recognize them. lol I flew to HKG from BNE and then back. No way I could remember him again. I don't...

    Short turnarounds: Have you flown back from your destination with the same crew?

    Also same aircraft. I remember I flew with EK 77W from SYD to DXB, however there was a problem with the engines. It took more than 3 hours to stay inside the plane. What a nightmare! When I arrived in DXB, I had one night free stopover. Lovely place to stay there! The next day, I hoped...

    Short turnarounds: Have you flown back from your destination with the same crew?

    If you fly between SYD-BNE many times, then you will be able to recognise the crew very well. I can't believe that I met a lovely flight attendant 5 times! Too many coincidence!! No idea how the crew scheduler works. She worked both 767 and 737. I was surprised that she has two ranks -...

    Your longest trip point-to-point?

    I had the best time following "the golden age of jet" flight trip. I flew from HAM to DXB to SIN to BNE. Imagine that we flew similar flight paths between Austalia and Europe or the Great air race

    Managing Westjet flights booked on QF points

    Now QF has just changed to "?" in the included bags. I am wondering whether you guy have flown on Westjet recently (using QF points). Do we have to pay to charge for one piece of bag? It costs about CAD50

    Qantas SYD-HNL route to become QF103/104

    Yeah i remember that very well. We flew QF 3 to HNL by B743 and then transfered to Canadian Airlines to YVR by DC10. We arrived HNL at about 10pm and then departed at 1am to YVR. I was really excited to fly with QF 3 becauase it was my first time to fly on one value number. lol

    Article: Not All Economy Class Products Are the Same

    Well... I think most airlines have already changed from 3-3-3 to 3-4-3 in 777s. Few airlines such as Singapore airlines and Turkey Airlines that have 3-3-3 in 777s.
