business class

I am having trouble when searching for reward seats. Every time I do search, for example, Taipei to Vancouver, an error message comes up, and the page defaults back to Sydney to Vancouver, which I did not search for. I know there are seats available, as I did a search on seats.aero. Thoughts?

Hi Guys, My boss is paying for my flights Melbourne to Singapore. I don’t think he will pay for business, so likely an economy ticket. What is the likelihood booking with Qantas I can request an upgrade and it be approved? I am Qantas Bronze but have been longstanding customer ~ 2.8M in FF...

I’m starting to think that the points-flights game is part “numerical” and part “psychological”. For the newbie like me, it’s a really large part “psychological” – the way you approach the ‘game’. I’ve been hoarding my Qantas points for years. The (very welcome) responses to my first post were...

This is a trip report about China Southern Airlines (CZ) in Business Class. The route is MEL-xCAN-KMG return. That’s Melbourne-Guangzhou-Kunming. All in Business Class. MEL-CAN is a B787. CAN-KMG varies - for me it was a B737 or an A320. Ticket cost was approximately $2,800 when booked...

This is the business class menu on today’s Jetstar flight from MEL to SIN: I thought it looked familiar - i.e. identical - to the menu I had last year on SYD-ICN. So I asked the flight attendant and she said it hasn’t changed in the 5 years she has worked for Jetstar. 😂 Is it perhaps time...

Emirates are reconfiguring 81 777-300ERs. Notably, they’re updating the outdated 2-3-2 business class to a more contemporary staggered 1-2-1 configuration, although it seems to be basically identical to the current A380 seat. https://onemileatatime.com/news/new-emirates-777-business-class/...

Hi all, I would like to take advantage of the Qantas rewards on offer from some of the big banks for their Business credit cards. However since my ABN is less than 12 months (Registered in Feb '24), I am not told that I'm not eligible for these cards. The other alternative they suggested was...

Has anyone else noticed that ‘coughtails and Aperitifs’ are missing from Business Class (J) menus as of 1st August 2024? I compared a bunch of SQ flight menus dated 31 Jul vs 1st Aug and it’s definitely removed. I’m hoping it’s just a glitch and not a permanent change as I’m flying soon...

Flying between the two cities later in the year with China Eastern - Business class. There is a surprising lack of information on the China Eastern website about which lounge business class passengers may access in either airport. Researching online is even more unclear as some websites...

Following on from the QR announcement at the Farnborough Air Show, Turkish have announced theirs - and this time, a marked step-up from their previous offering (2-3-2). Apparently its basically the same, or similar to Qantas' A350 sunrise J seats and Air India's new ones - Safran Unity; with...

Looking to book business class return flights with a velocity reward booking - flights should be available from 120,000 each way - so 480,000 points +fees for two people return. Availability, understandably seems patchy - I'm thinking maybe being over in the UK July next year but timing is...
