re: Discussion/Q&A on Best QF Status Run Options Yes I depends on what you are requiring for requal and how desperate you are for lifetime SCs. Meanwhile, I have spent ages trying to learn how to find these AA runs but am still having trouble getting the system to replicate anything similar...

I was on VXM the other day with a total of 42 passengers. Was like a private jet flight!

Delta/Northwest only in the last year or two retired DC9s from the 1960's!

Just be aware the CX lounge doesn't have showers so if you wish to have one go to the Louis Tavern lounge for a bit prior to boarding.

Yes I'm wondering if there is a condition buried in the sale that these fares don't earn points and status credits? I haven't had a moment to check but I did a dummy booking yesterday for Mel-Syd-Pvg-Syd-Mel and when I got to the final screen it was saying the booking would earn 20 status...

Here is a weird one. Trying to book some before midnight. Just searched for Melbourne - Sydney on November 30 and its only presenting options via Canberra. Northing direct at all!!! :confused:

I had one in December but I've got a registration screen saying I am successfully registered and an email confirming it so I can't see how they can deny it now. On neither of those things is this condition mentioned!?

Re: No access to Cathay lounge in SF Seems to be often the way with Cathay and other Oneworld airlines. I was at BKK recently with family in J. I am SG and they are all NB and we were flying AY. Their boarding passes stated "Invitation to the Louis Tavern lounge", mine said "Invitation for you...

And where do you begin to make a decision on where the line is drawn? In built up areas is it (for arguments sake) two streets away from the line or three? A bureaucratic nightmare!

Now if only they would allow family pooling of status credits like Virgin....

You'll have to go to the QF lounge first as the EK one closes from departure of the A380 flight until about 11.30 from memory. Hoping that info is still current...

Well Air NZ may desire offloading their stake. The big question is, who the hell in their right mind is going to want to buy it!?

Not that they are missing out on anything at all. That place is a total dump.

I suspect the international business is flushing cash away given their reliance on the US market which has largely collapsed with the falling dollar and based on many anecdotal contributions recently. The capital expenditure in expanding facilities has been immense in recent years and they are...

A final act for Mr Truss.... Finally, OOL maybe a slightly credible airport to transit. No Cookies | Gold Coast Bulletin

Thai went to brand new 787's on its Brisbane services last year.

And as if by magic an offer appeared this morning!!!! Now to find a day next week to go flying and I may just make it. Weird as I had a strange premonition last night that I'd wake up to such an email this morning....

There is a Hilton on the airport site. I would go that path...

A real concern being the new generation of aircraft. Was on the A350 last week and one has to be very careful about the sly popping off, this next generation of aircraft will expose a multitude more sins that older ones!

Yes although I went through the other day and it has no showers so I had something to eat and drink at CX then headed to the CIP for a shower before boarding....
