    South Korea entry requirements

    Exempted until 31 Dec 2024 for Australians and other countries listed on the link https://www.k-eta.go.kr/portal/board/viewboarddetail.do?bbsSn=149899 No preparation needed, I was handed an arrival card to fill out on the flight, it will ask for your address in Korea (e.g hotel) so have those...

    Qantas Delays/Cancellations

    I'm guessing here, but to me it looks like the aircraft scheduled to operate BNE-LAX, VH-EBM, has instead operated as QF6004 down to Sydney to operate a delayed QF127. The original QF127 today (VH-EBQ) diverted back to Sydney around 3.5 hours into the flight and arrived back in SYD around 7pm...

    JAL Fuel Surcharges HND-SYD flight in Feb 2024

    I would suggest that you look for sale fares instead - JAL and ANA have both had regular sales recently with return economy fares during off peak times for under $1k return. Or if starting from a country outside of Japan, put it on the 1 ticket (SYD-HND return on the one ticket should reduce...

    JAL A350-1000 seats revealed

    Today, JAL has released their new seats and seating arrangements for their A350-1000 which will replace their 777-300ERs starting from late this year on JL5/JL6 from HND-JFK. https://www.jal.co.jp/ar/en/offers/A350-1000/ https://www.jal.co.jp/jp/en/aircraft/conf/351.html (the seatmap is...

    Oneworld Classic Flight Reward Discussion - The Definitive Thread

    What do you mean? JL47/48 is still operating, although with a reduced schedule (4 or 5 times a week rather than daily), so this could potentially be an issue. JAL's schedule for the Northern summer (i.e from 30 March 2024 onwards) is also yet to reflect the longer flying time or the reduced...

    EK Award Availability - But Wow - those Carrier Charges!

    I've only searched a few dates but it could be that some award seats were released with EK416/417 being upgraded from a 777 to a 380: Emirates goes all-A380 on SYD-DXB 1,171GBP (~2253AUD) in taxes out of LHR compared to 1,223EUR (~2020AUD) out of CDG. Compare that to 312EUR in taxes for an...

    Seoul to Seoul (Hopefully not Couldn't Stand the Weather)

    I took the ferry from Kagoshima to Sakurajima earlier this year, I think there's departures every 15-30 min depending on the time of day. It's a nice day trip if the weather is good.

    Qantas A380 refurbishment news and updates

    I think I'm the only one who wants the old layout on my upcoming flight since it will allow me to experience the upstairs Y cabin for the final time

    Airlines with live TV on board

    Every airline review will talk about the seat, the service, and the food, but it's features like this (and the exterior tail cameras) that I think makes such a big difference to the in-flight experience also

    JAL 777-300ER back on Sydney route

    Disagree, I think the aircraft itself matters a lot. The 777 is a lot noisier than the 787 and doesn't have the lower cabin pressurisation as the 787. JAL has flown both the apex suite and the reverse herringbone 789s to SYD post-covid, last Christmas I was on the apex suite but over Easter it...

    AFF Review: Jetstar 787-8 Business Class (SYD-ICN)

    I flew both jetstar and scoot in business/scootplus last year and agree that jetstar's offering is superior although the seats themselves are similar. For the 787 windows, it seemed to me that JQ's 787s don't block out light as well as other airlines' 787s - is it because it's an earlier build...

    China Airlines reward seats using Qantas points

    I had the same issues as other posters when trying to select seats - using the above method on the app worked (entering in Firstnamemiddlename with no space in between). However, if I use the 'seat selection' function on the app home page, it did NOT work and would return the error message...

    QF 93 Mel/Lax A380

    Mostly true, although there are still a few airlines that use apex suites. It's not particularly great for space utilisation though. For example, JAL's 789s have 44 business class seats in apex suite config and 52 seats in the newer reverse herringbone config...

    I flew 11 hours in a narrow-body and didn't hate it

    I would have no issues doing long haul in a narrowbody in business class. In economy class though, I would absolutely try to avoid it for the following reasons: - Passengers per aisle #1 - 6 passengers per row for 1 aisle compared to 4 or 5 on a widebody, meaning that you have more passengers...

    Thanks, I didn't end up stacking them though because I did my shopping in store and not online.
