    JetStar Syd - coughet

    Re: JetStar Syd - coughet Thanks all :). Used the phone contact and have selected the seats. 1E was not available on the MEL-BKK leg, so ended up with 1A/B, 2A/B, sunset should not be too much a problem. For return leg got 1E, 2D/E/F, so all looks good. This is my first J* flight, so...

    JetStar Syd - coughet

    Re: JetStar Syd - coughet Does anyone know where to find a seatmap for the J* A330? It is not on seatguru or seatexpert, and I can't find one on the J* website. I believe I can access one on the website, and then select my seats, if I could only log into my booking, but that is proving to...

    JetStar Syd - coughet

    Re: JetStar Syd - coughet Thanks, however I am 6'2, so would this change your recommendation? The rest of the family is well under 6', so provided at least one of the recommended seats has good legroom that would be ok.

    JetStar Syd - coughet

    Re: JetStar Syd - coughet Rather than start a new thread, thought I would hijack this one slightly ;). I am flying *class MEL-BKK in Sept with my family (wife + 2 girls). Sorry to hear about the gin being watered down and restricted, but happy to hear the wine was flowing freely :). My...

    Some newbie questions - please help!

    Welcome to AFF Jaykat :) The number of points required for the anyseat awards will be based on the level of bookings for the particular flight, ie if the flight is heavily booked, it will require more points for an anyseat award. As the flights you are looking at are popular (which is why the...

    help for new traveller bne-la ny-la-bne!!!

    That's good, as your QC membership will get you access to the Admirals Club in the US. The AC is not as good as a Qantas Club (no unlimited free drinks etc), but you do get one drink voucher (still have to tip though) and it gives you somewhere to sit. Your QC membership will also get you...

    Starclass on QF metal - SYD-MEL

    Probably a silly question, but if you do book StarClass on a QF operated flight, where do you sit, in J or Y, or would it be Premium Economy when it is available?

    help for new traveller bne-la ny-la-bne!!!

    Regarding this question, I believe that a 4pm flight out of NY will provide very adequate time. You definitely do not need to depart NY the day prior. To be safe you probably need to book a flight that allows 3 hours between landing in LAX and when your LAX-BNE departs. As this is your...

    Best lounges?

    I can only comment on a couple of the locations, as follows: HKG: either the Wing or the Pier F Lounge are great. LAX Domestic: I believe when flying AA domestic, you only get access to the Admiral's Club not the Flagship Lounge, unless you are actually flying First class. LAX T4: there is no...

    When things go right

    Oh well, back to earth now it seems. Checked in for QF6 in FRA and was given the boarding pass for QF10 as well, and it is only J :( . Not that I expected anything different, just hoped. Still good though, I have my trusty seat 16A for both flights. I didn't even lose my booked request once...

    When things go right

    Thanks for the sentiments guys. Now of course, I'll be hoping I can get a repeat of the good fortune on the SIN-MEL leg on QF10 on Friday. At that stage I will be dog tired after a hectic week and long flight from Bilbao, and would really appreciate the full flat bed. I am enough of a...

    Best Destinations around the world

    Not a big fan of LA myself, but it is definitley somewhere you need to visit once (Disneyland, Rodeo Drive etc). Other places in the US that are well worthwhile seeing are: NYC, Las Vegas, Grand Canyon, San Francisco. Also Canada is worth a visit, though I have only been to the East...

    When things go right

    Sitting in the SIN FLounge and thinking how good it is when things go your way :) . Arrived at the First check-in in MEL earlier this afternoon (or yesterday depending on where you are), and there was no queue, which was the first positive. Then was told I had been upgraded to F on QF9, my...

    Why bother with carry-on bags?

    I can confirm they are used for arr in MEL as well. I can also claim a 100% success rate in receiving one as a WP flying Y, but thankfully that is only one time

    QF to LH Transit at FRA

    Yes, the CX lounge is now the standard for QF flights. It is similar to the Delta Crown Room in terms of size and facilities. Its lucky you don't have the 8 hour layover before QF6, as the check-in only opens 2-3 hours before flight time, and FRA is a very boring place to spend time when you...
