    Worse than feet on bulkheads

    Oh sure, been out for high end sushi with him in Japan a number of times. (JK, just know of him, have never met him.)

    Worse than feet on bulkheads

    Haha, no, I get the sense that Leff would need a full HAZMAT suit to so much as poke a stranger's bare foot.

    Worse than feet on bulkheads

    "Horrific" is a tad melodramatic. Old mate Gary needs to get a grip.

    15-20% bonus points when transferring to Velocity in May-June 2024

    Would someone be so kind as to check my maths? If transferring from Amplify and wanting to eventually get the points to KrisFlyer, this makes it marginally worth going via Velocity, yeah? Amplify -> KF = x points / three. versus Amplify -> Velocity -> KF with this bonus = x points / two * 1.15...

    A new low in the lounge

    Wow, that is really poor, especially for a J lounge.

    Thanks for the replies/suggestions, all. I would not feel comfortable setting an audible alarm in a designated quiet area so I'll just go with setting my phone to vibrate and positioning it somewhere I'll notice. Serfty; big extra thanks for the info on the cupboard - very helpful.

    SQ Tips, Trips and Tales

    I realise this question may be met with some jovial derision, but to serfty (and anyone else who has had success sleeping in the SKL T3 sleeping loungers); did you set yourself an alarm or something to ensure you did not oversleep? I've got an overnight layover coming up at SIN and am actually...

    Biggest juxtaposition between luxury (from points) and budget (from money)?

    Holy moly, that wine list! What did you drink?

    Biggest juxtaposition between luxury (from points) and budget (from money)?

    Fun topic. I don't think I can beat your example but I am familiar with the feeling (eg, J flights somewhere to then crash at a friend's place). I'm strongly of the view that those comfy flights add so much to a holiday, specially a short one like yours. The flights become part of the fun, not...

    MEL-HBA, EIGHT flights??

    Well but also our booking was on a 10xx flight number. And still was when notified of the time changes. 1707451632 And I did point that only the 15xx flights showed as bookable in my original post.

    MEL-HBA, EIGHT flights??

    Thanks Harrison. Forgive my ignorance, but what exactly does "zeroed out" mean? I've heard the term before but don't really know what it means precisely - hasn't affected us before 😅 We are booked on one of the 737 services, so I just want to know what to expect. 1707432691 Haha, welllll, there...

    Hmm, you're right, it is school hols but still, thirteen flights?

    MEL-HBA, EIGHT flights??

    Hi all, So we got a notification from QF about timing changes to an upcoming (April) MEL-HBA flight (not the only one we've received in the last few days - QF seem to be doing a lot of fiddling at the moment). Anyway, this change left us with a pretty tight connection from the preceding PER-MEL...

    Conrad Shanghai: Pool Access

    Echoing previous comments - swimming cap was required at Grand Central Hotel in Shanghai when we stayed there a few years back. At least they handed them out at no charge. I really disliked having to wear it, but no choice, gotta accept local customs etc...other than once or twice when we...
