Hi all, hoping someone can help with these logistics questions. QF022 (NRT-SYD) and then QF391 (SYD-NAN, FJ metal). 1. At NRT, assume bags can be checked through to NAN? 2. Can QF at NRT issue boarding passes for QF391? VA154 (NAN-SYD) and then QF021 (SYD-NRT) 3. Assume VA can only check...

Hi all, I'm flying RJ for the first time this month, completing a number of sectors in the Middle East. I'll be transiting AMM a couple of times. Can anyone comment on the quality of the RJ flight experience in either Y or J, and on the quality of the RJ lounges in AMM? Thanks.

Hi. I'll be flying SYD-HKG-NRT next week. HKG is a 3 hr transit because I'm flying CX. If I buy duty free wine at SYD, will I have a problem getting it on the plane for the HKG-NRT leg? Can't remember if a boarding gate check for more than 100ml liquids is conducted. thanks in advance...

hi all. i'll be relocating to Singapore for a couple of years (at least). am wondering whether anyone here lives in Singapore? is it worthwhile retaining QFF WP, or should i move to KrisFlyer? my thinking is that when MAS is a full OW member my opportunities to earn and use points will increase.

Traveling in the US at moment and have had a number of flights with American Airlines. As per my previous experiences with AA, I am not particularly impressed with the standard of service. There are certainly a small number of individuals who do try to provide a very good service, but they...

Has anyone used the JAL lounges at JFK? Looks like JAL is the only OW airline in that terminal so I won't have any other options...
