    Reason for carry-on being diverted for manual check at security (and then released without check)

    WLG domestic and AKL international security are especially bad at sending nearly every bag for a 2nd check. Supposedly to speed up the main line but it doesn't work because the backlog for 2nd check is too big to allow any more bags through the 1st check.

    Korean Air SKYPASS doesn't offer SkyTeam Elite Plus tier except with lifetime status?

    Yup. Great for uncrowded F lounge which I have access to when flying KE.

    Cancelled flights & waivers due to Cyclone Alfred

    Qf won't allow routing changes unless flights are cancelled. I have upcoming flights via bne and thought I'd be helpful and reroute since I don't need to go via bne, there are seats available on alternative routes, and it would free up 2 seats (1 to bne and 1 from bne) for people that need them...

    Cancelled flights & waivers due to Cyclone Alfred

    I wouldn't focus too much on forecast path ar that level of resolution, as there remains a lot of uncertainty. The entire shaded area on bom map is where the centre may pass. We've seen in the past 24 hours Alfred isn't exactly coming straight in - lots of wobbles.

    NZTD is required for everyone including NZers. It's the arrival form rather than visa.

    Article: Qantas Auckland Lounge Upgrade: The End of an Era

    That's harsh. I'm sure there will be a sign put up "new lounge coming soon" which surely counts as starting the work.

    Case Study: How Matt Retained Qantas Platinum in 2025

    I'll retain platinum for the next member year by virtue of obtaining lifetime platinum last year. If qff are nice maybe they'll keep me at P1 for one more year but not counting on it.
