We gained GHA titanium this year after our holiday. I found the GHA program wording and the way the hotels participate is really poor. At the start I had a few issues with hotels not crediting stays onto the app. I contacted GHA and they flatly refused to act or help. I was told it was my...

I brought a bag of individual kit-kats for the crew last week. 3 hours later my friendly cabin attendant came through with the QF chocolate run. I burst out laughing when I saw she was offering Kitkats. She told me the crew had eaten and appreciated my gift. Its just a token thankyou gesture

I found this https://smartecarte.com/sydney-airport/ If you used this, could you still use QF transfer bus from domestic to international?

I agree 1.40 connection time is tight. JQ flight might arrive on time that day but maybe it has to wait for a gate. Or the gate staff take 10 min to open the bridge. You could be the last person off the plane. You might need to stop for a quick toilet break. The Batik desk could be understaffed...

I went through AKL last month and the person in front had their AAA batteries confiscated because they were loose, not in their package. Where to start on that stupidity?

I booked a trans tasman flight AKL-SYD, and went to reserve a seat in row 4 on the 737. As a WP, this has always been possible, but now there is a seat charge. I rang QF to check and was told that this had recently been changed and has been enhanced to be only available for Platinum 1. OK...

And always take a change of undies, shirt, socks and any medication with you as carry on. If you miss the flight and cant get to your luggage, this makes things a bit easier.

for AA RTW helpdesk, try 1800 247 3247. Check your ticket Booking ref number. Qantas and AA seem to have different booking numbers and I had to ask a QF rep what AA and Alaskan were for their segments. This might not be relevant in your case. Good luck

Hi Mark I know UK is not Europe, but be aware LHR has expensive tax in J flights. It often much cheaper to avoid flights to UK

An update on our RTW. It seems harder to book than previously The Oneworld booking tool is a travesty. It has error messages that disappear if you keep going, but then comes up with more rule violations that are no explained. The booking site tells us to use Jetstar asia and has the flight...

Emotional support animals. I know they can help people, but everyone has watched the US airline industry clamp down on them over the last few years. Dogs biting passengers, peacocks on a plane, a hamster flushed down a toilet as the owner wasn't allowed to take it on, miniature horses, pigs etc...

I missed a good law pertaining to bloggers In Alaska even though it is legal to hunt a bear, it is illegal to wake a bear and take a picture for photo opportunities.

There are so many laws and rules in society. a quick search found this Dumb Laws (List) Alabama: • Anniston: You may not wear blue jeans down Noble Street. • Bear wrestling matches are prohibited. • Dominoes may not be played on Sunday. • It is illegal for a driver to be blindfolded while...

The problem is a good TA. One moved, 1 retired and the latest one double charged us and doesn’t think it makes any difference where you start RWT from. I have tried your suggestion and only used SIN on return. It seems to like that. So I am changing the start a little. Thanks for the help...

Thanks RooFlyer Back to the drawing board for plan C

I am looking at trip starting in Tokyo. Either starting with HND-JFK on AA. if needed for AA desk, or NRT-BOS if I can fly JL NRT-BOS-DFW-YVR-LHR-ARN-CAI-DOH-DPS-HKG-KUL-SIN-MEL-AKL-SYD-NRT I am getting an invalid message in following DOH-DPS, DPS-HKG HKG-KUL KUL-SIN Your trip may...

Reading Karens story about a couple dropped in WLG instead of CHC leads me to ask, who takes out travel insurance for a domestic or trans-Tasman flight. I know some people have a year long multi use policy. But we have never bothered with this insurance. We think that the cost of any unexpected...
