Congratulations on your achievement - you’re a fantastic contributor to AFF, you’re always so helpful and generous with your advice.

Hope someone eligible takes advantage of this generous offer! These passes are pretty special - I had to carefully plan and schedule giving mine away to some peeps off on their honeymoon, at the expense of other worthy causes :)

Curious what your plans are for the overnights in MEL and AKL. I ended up staying at the Ibis hotels in MEL, and had to go landside in AKL because it was too long before the flight back. During my status runs I didn’t get a single widebody, nor did I visit the SYD FLounge - really wanted to but...

I stayed at both Ibis Budget and Styles (in that order) recently. I'm a very deep sleeper and I did sleep there from 9pm-6am but I didn't pick up any noise. Styles was way way nicer, worth the slight premium.

I haven't tried the SYD version, did you rate it? I'd be happy for at least the MEL version to be a permanent fixture, there's only so many eggs benedict and corn fritters I can eat.

I had the congee in MEL and although it didn't look like much, I really enjoyed it - enough to get a second helping. I was going to have the dumplings again in MEL but on a follow-up visit was told it had already been taken off the menu!

I’d say you’ve won this thread.

Last week at the QF Melbourne service desk, I was able to get them to print out boarding passes for my flights from the Gold Coast to Bali, which were on a separate booking. So I believe they have the ability to do it - they’ll probably need the passport. (I think the lounge agents have less...

Yes that trip is definitely done for.

Why not? Or... a totally irrational lust for the white card, and to be able to post in this thread. Definitely not worth it, especially after all the experiences on this thread (and I've read it in its entirely at least twice). I don't want to think about all the things I could have otherwise...

They clearly KWYA. 16 flights in the last week through ports with CLs and not a single invite.

Flew four sectors in J today. All those plus the TSCs have already posted. Surprisingly quick.

If they’re trying to do it, IME they’re not doing too well. Sometimes they managed to start a few minutes ahead of schedule but definitely not always 10 minutes early

You don’t get a pack every requal, although they do send gifts extremely intermittently. They didn’t even send me a new card! My card has nominally expired, the lounge agent pointed this out, said they don’t send out new physical cards any more (really?) and I should use the digital version...

Sorry I can’t enlighten you, the pax (and their guitar) weren’t in J with me is all I know.

I still get them, now with messaging about group boarding.

My experiences from recent status runs... 1. MEL-SYD QF410 Day: Sunday Scheduled departure: 07:00 Scheduled boarding: 06:40 Actual boarding: ~06:29 Boarding seemed to start more than 10 minutes early! Group 1 was already done. Hung back to see as much as possible. There were two FAs boarding...

Multi, I had two status runs to DPS. I realise what I did - I uploaded my passport / photo on the first page (jpg), and on the second page for those Main Document I uploaded my two separate QF e-ticket PDFs, because they were nested itineraries and I wanted to prove I had return tickets. I...

I had to upload the passport biodata page and a separate passport photo, both of which I did as jpg. I uploaded my intinerary in pdf.
