    Yes, I booked J BKK-LHR (and BKK-PER-BKK). Other European cities were also showing.

    Avianca LifeMiles – Bookings and Discussion

    Now that you mention it, I checked and it was actually late Feb when I booked TG flights last year so I suppose there's a chance.

    Avianca LifeMiles – Bookings and Discussion

    I just booked Eva J LHR-BKK in July without any problems, though I noted a complete absence of TG availability whereas there was plenty this time last year.

    Anybody managed to book an award ticket with EVA air (...or Austrian)

    FWIW (probably not much at present) I booked Eva LHR-BKK earlier this year using Lifemiles. They're currently showing availability BKK-VIE, but uncertain whether it can actually be booked.

    Minimal carry-on baggage too, IME.

    Quick trip to Iguazu Falls from Sao Paolo

    The Itaipu dam is worth a visit too while you're in the area.

    Which lounge do TG use in PER

    They're both pleasant enough, if nothing to write home about. SQ is recently refurbished and I did prefer the ambience there.

    Which lounge do TG use in PER

    I used both SQ and NZ for my afternoon departure last month, so I'm guessing you must be on the morning flight, in which case I expect they would send you to the Aspire lounge.

    Qantas SCs with Cathay Business Light

    I did BKK-HKG-AKL return last month on a 'Light' fare and got 400SCs. I would have credited to AA, but I needed (or, rather Madame needed) the additional OWE baggage allowances.

    What is the statute of limitations on “never again”?

    I've actively avoided BA Club World for about 14 years, albeit easier since they stopped flying to BKK.

    SQ321 LHR-SIN Encountered Severe Turbulence [At least 1 Fatality and 30 Injured]

    I had both ends of the spectrum last month on an Eva flight. Seat belt sign stayed for about three hours after departure and was totally ignored by passengers and cabin crew. I mentioned it, conversationally, to an FA who didnt seem too concerned and coincidence I'm sure, but it was turned off...

    QF P1 partner platinum

    No SCs for either of us since pre-Covid. Just another QF anomaly I guess.

    QF P1 partner platinum

    It may strain credulity around here, but Qantas can sometimes be inconsistent. My P1 expired last November, but Madame's partner P continues until October this year. ISTR that hers initially aligned with mine, but shifted to Oct some years ago, though I didn't pay it much heed at the time.

    Seemingly trivial reasons why you choose one hotel/airline/shop over another

    I like round numbers so I'll choose to pay $100 rather than $99.99 for the same product. Not that it's often an option these days.

    Airport security confiscated an empty water bottle

    Ancient history now, but ISTR that the original rationale was that evil-doers might use the empty bottle to combine their liquid bomb ingredients from smaller, compliant containers.

    Do you leave a tip for hotel housekeeping?

    Article: New Zealand Replaces Paper Arrival Cards with Online Declaration

    A question for NZ regulars. Are there any particular pros or cons with on line/app vs paper declarations? Entrants will be on Thai passports with (permitted, I believe) food items to declare. I'm guessing electronic dec may be a little quicker.
