Having issues where the QF website is pricing multi-city reward bookings separately rather than per the combined distance of flights (appears to only occur when booking partner airlines, recently did a multi-city QF award with no problems). Surprised it still happens after 2 years. The general...
Planning QF F SYD-HKG 0935-1550, CX Y HKG-NRT 0125+1-0630+1. Solo, QF SG.
Would I be entitled to use HKG CX F lounges during layover per the first leg on QF, or would I be resigned to the J lounges per QF status? Thanks in advance!
Can report back that not only JAL Explorer Pass (Fare Code G) still credit as Flexible Economy, but on-departure upgrades credit as the higher class of booking! J crediting as PE (20 SC), F as F (60 SC).
Upgraded my JAL Explorer Pass HND-CTS leg to F, flew in normal Y from there to ITM. Will wait and see if any points earning is any different on the former.

To anyone with experience doing this in the past, if one were to upgrade JL Domestic on the day with the flat fee (JPY1K and 8K...
I wouldn't recommend spending a lot of time at the CGK contract lounge (Plaza Premium Lounge Saphire). The food is decent, and the views are pretty awesome (arguably better than GA's flagship CGK lounge since they're located away from the windows), but it gets boring after an hour or so...
It's quite odd to see Indonesians being so finicky about damaged ID. Being one with an identity card that is literally peeling off and a tea-soaked passport that has lost almost all of its gold text at the covers, my family and I have never had issues with using them to go thru immigration...
Update on the missing bonus points (from May-Jun Airport double points):
Have sent messages to both QF and Uber, only to be referred to each other. Both QFF email (frequent_flyer@) and Uber agents seem to have short-term memory loss, since I had to repeatedly point out that I did get points...
Seems like a real problem. Followed up with Uber via Twitter, unfortunately they are refusing to assist before the 6-week mark. Will chase them up again once the time has passed.
