It's a United MileagePlus thing that Platinums and 1Ks earn that can be used to put in for upgrades. https://www.united.com/en/us/fly/mileageplus/awards/upgrades-types/pluspoints.html It apparently replaced some other system (Complimentary Premier Upgrades) a couple of years back. Edit...

210 remaining.

I have 320 PlusPoints expiring at the end of January that I have no chance of using, and which I'd be happy to apply to someone else's booking. Edit: 300 remaining.

Marhaba Lounge in Melbourne is pretty ordinary too. But when flying CI, they do give you a little paper voucher to order a beef noodle soup, which visitors on other airlines presumably don't get.

Just returned from a three week Taiwan holiday. Used QF points to go MEL-TPE-MEL in J, and this was my first time flying CI. (Previous trips have been MEL-HKG-TPE on CX.) Service was attentive. Food onboard was plentiful, and not bad. For dinner on board last night I had lobster, and you know...

Great news! I'm heading back to Taiwan for a few weeks late April on CI reward flights. Will be nice to be able to tack on some other hops, if not for this trip, then next time I'm visiting.

App also can't find it. Does VA and UA use different PNRs? Is there a way to find the VA one online if so?

Hi, I've just booked return MEL-CBR award flights in Economy on VA using my United miles. After booking, the United site said: Should I be able to select seats through Virgin? I tried to the manage the booking on Virgin site but it didn't recognize the United PNR. If not, is there a timeframe...

Thanks for all the reassurances! My situation is about as simple as it could be (lots of availability, no connections, no other airlines involved), so here's hoping.

Hi everyone, I'm thinking about heading back to Taiwan for a month, maybe in March or April next year. My partner and I have built up some QF points over the last few years, so I'd like to use them for flights there and back. There looks to be plenty of J availability on CI's MEL-TPE flights...

Finally managed to complete the Enrolment on Arrival this morning (Sunday), just over three years after registering with UK Border Force! I landed at LAX at around 6am and proceeded to immigration. The border official noted to me that I had conditional approval and said I could complete the...

Not according to their answering machine message. But who knows... Good to know! I ended up booking trip next month via LAX, with ample layover time. This is on the Sunday after thanksgiving so hopefully they haven't taken the whole long weekend off. 1666934659 For me it's just going to be the...

Planning next work trip. Just called the phone number listed on Enrollment on Arrival for the SFO Global Entry office to confirm when they're open. I got a recorded message giving their "tentative" opening hours as 7:30am – 10:30pm every day, and that they are not taking any walkins at the...

Well since I don’t remember it, or whether I had it at all, I’m going to assume jakeseven7 was asking a trick question!

Didn't take a picture of the starter so I forget now, and didn't opt for the dessert. I'd order it again!

They did serve a midnight snack but I was asleep so I don’t know what it was. And some usual uninteresting snacks like chips or cookies at other times.

PJs were provided on my MEL-SFO UA flight a week ago. What I didn't get was a mattress. FAs handed out a few to select people after boarding, and later in the flight when I asked I was told they didn't have any left. The meal I got was nice though. Fish of some sort with a lemon cream sauce.

Arrived this morning at SFO with the intention of doing enrolment on arrival only to be told that they're no longer doing it on the weekend. 😐

I was having trouble finding options using matrix, but maybe I was using it wrong. So I was reading the rules at https://www.qantas.com/content/dam/qac/oneworld-clue-cards/oneworld-circle-pacific-27Apr22.pdf and looking for individual flight availability on ExpertFlyer in D class that I thought...

Really I was hoping that I could find an option that was both cheaper¹ than the most straightforward one and also on OW flights. The former since I think it's good to select cheaper options when they're available and reasonable, the latter so I can get a head start on SCs for next year (as my...
