I would love an airport lounge with a gym (provided there are also readily accessible showers! And not like at the TK lounge in IST where the wait time for a shower in the morning peak was 2 hours...)

Well I flew TK long-haul J over the weekend and happy to report that there were no bed bugs in sight.

I was in the TK J lounge at Istanbul yesterday and noticed that there was a complimentary ironing service. Literally a booth with a staff member and an ironing board. This is the same lounge that has a golf simulator and a VR flight simulator. What other unique features have you found at an...

Starting 21 February 2025, Solomon Airlines will fly once per week on Fridays non-stop between Auckland and Brisbane. Operating aircraft is an A320. https://www.aeroroutes.com/eng/250113-ie1q25bne

This also sounds plausible. I did once get downgraded on VA from J to Y and did not get a J meal, but the cabin manager did come by with a couple of snacks (nuts etc.)

Yes, that would be the reason. You can book the QF codeshare only if your ticket originates in certain countries (such as Australia or New Zealand).

I wouldn't be surprised if it was a staff member. I've certainly never been offered this as a Platinum member, and I suspect most AFFers haven't either.

I’m trying the SilverKris sling coughtail in the SIN T3 SilverKris lounge. It’s quite lovely! Not too busy this evening, good buffet selection, although there’s a 45 minute wait for a shower. I’m flying TK J this evening and decided to come here instead of the Marhaba Lounge that TK gave me...

Bags are through-checked without you needing to collect them for Australian international to international connections.

My points did end up arriving later this afternoon. I did make a transfer from a new credit card account in late December - not sure if the points would have arrived without having done that. 🤷‍♂️

It would be a great start if airlines would simply tell you the fare class you're booking on their website! Looking at you Qantas, Virgin and many others...

Nothing here yet :(

Have you checked the Priority Pass website? https://www.prioritypass.com/lounges/united-kingdom/birmingham-airport Birmingham Airport (BHX) has 4 lounges that you can access with Priority Pass, but not restaurants where you can get a F&B credit.

Yes, you absolutely can. Depending on where you're flying from, though, you might not be able to book on the Qantas website. E.g. if the first flight on your ticket is from Colombo, you'll need to use a workaround method to search for availability and book (e.g. by calling Qantas) since Qantas...

Got this today in Sydney and really enjoyed it. Also tried the dan dan noodles.

Can confirm QF Platinum currently gets F Lounge access flying FJ out of SYD. The guy at check-in said I needed to be on a QF code to get access, but I asked at the door of the lounge and it was no problem. I'm on an FJ coded flight.

I wonder where these people went? Did they intend to continue to SYD and get lost in the airport, or??

A lot of delays out of Auckland since VH-XZF got stuck there yesterday. QF146, QF148 and QF158 were all hours late yesterday. E.g. QF158 (AKL-MEL) left at 00:42 instead of 20:55. QF152 today has been delayed so far about 7 hours.

I see that the page to purchase a Qantas Lounge day pass is still up: https://www.qantas.com/au/en/qantas-experience/at-the-airport/airport-lounges/lounge-passes/buy-a-lounge-pass.html Has anyone purchased a single-use Qantas Club pass lately? If so, what was the cost?

The annual fee on this card (charged in the second and subsequent years) will increase from 11 March 2025 from $450 to $499. Still fee-free in the first year. https://www.australianfrequentflyer.com.au/community/threads/hsbc-increasing-credit-card-annual-fees-on-11-3-25.116501/
