    Qantas status hold - discretional approval?

    Because you need to supply documentation, prenatally it includes your expected delivery date from Dr/ OB and postnatal it’s the birth certificate.

    Arriving Gatwick, next flight Heathrow

    That is way too tight IMHO. Have you looked at BA from LCY ? That would be easier to do.

    Hotel Chains Ditching Mini Toiletries

    I’m a huge fan of hotels changing to big bottles in bathrooms. Have been in many high end hotels that have switched (not really an Accor person so don’t have anything to report there.) I don’t really use the shampoo and conditioner unless at the end of a long trip and running out. I prefer to...

    It is not clear from your post what the total claim is for. The hotel initial offer was to move you to another villa?

    A320 - 2 types - which one?

    The one that doesn’t have lie flats has two extra rows in Y, ending at 30. The lie flat one ends at row 28. With a short route like this it may be a lottery and you won’t know until closer to time which aircraft you are on. I flew OTP-DOH on one with the lie flats and up until a day or two...

    QF Upgrade to First

    If you value space and sleep quality then I think there is huge difference between J and F on QF. I’d rate the F bed once made up with the mattress pad etc as supremely comfy to sleep. I don’t personally think there is a massive difference in the food and beverage, at one time there was but that...

    How do Hilton treat you as an Elite?

    I have used the gym/shower at Conrad Tokyo on several occasions with early arrival. Most recently in January. I never asked beforehand just at check-in. Hope this isn’t a new policy.

    Who is going to the USA, who has changed their travel and what will you do differently?

    I flew into the USA earlier this month from LHR via DOH, probably equally as interesting a route as the traveler in the letters page. Was very uneventful for me, same as all of my previous entries.

    What do you collect on your travels?

    I am strictly hand luggage only. I bring back fridge magnets from my travels, especially tacky totally OTT ones. Conrad soft toys, ducks, LH ducks etc. Occasionally will bring back a beautiful book mark. I don’t really do Amenity kits unless they are pretty special/ not something I already have.

    Airfares to US to drop?

    I entered the US earlier in the week at ORD. Same as every other time I have arrived. Straight through GE in 60 seconds and at the Blue Line train in 10 minutes.

    US Global Entry Program for Australian citizens [from 2025]

    I have flown through a lot of small US airports that don’t have pre-check lines. They give me a laminated plastic card I hold and that allows me to go through with shoes on etc.
