Start version 2 as another post, we want more

A way to improve the efficiency of images in a post is to insert them into a Word page (eg 2 across in landscape or even 2x3 in portrait mode), take an image of the page and use that as the attachment.

Nice photos.

I wish we could post more than five. I know there is the word solution but I tend to do live TR and on the phone (they wont get done once I'm hone again) so that option isn't available. One day we might get treated as grown ups.

Flew this product 3 weeks ago AUH-SYD and it's the best F product out there IMHO. Also, the policy about Residence isn't set in stone. I was given a full tour by the butler and also got to go inside the Flight deck while we were on the ground at AUH. If anyone sees any apartment availability on the AUH-SYD route please share.

Great report and pictures. I doubt I'll ever get to fly in that type of class so thanks for posting

Hang around on the forum. I said exactly that a couple of years ago. Things changed

An Amex velocity card for you, one for your partner friend or family member pooled back to you, and you're flying first class on a mid haul route.

I definitely need to be more proactive and smarter with my points earning, will be sticking around and learning all I can!

I may have hit the quota for image attachments ...

I use Photobucket when presenting photos in forums as there are a much larger limit.

Photo and image hosting, free photo galleries, photo editing

Great report. EY F really does look amazing.

I've never travelled F, but my first J experience with them blew me away. So much better than any other J. Such a pity that their post-flight customer service is the worst I've ever experienced! Having the hugest uphill battle getting retro points claim done.

Once you start earning points via credit card and start flying Business or First Class, you won't look back.

Have a look at the offers in my signature below, or have a look at Referral Offers section of AFF.

Thats the spirit.

I do have a photobucket account, I will look into transferring the photos there after I finish work.

Enjoying the TR! Please post about your other destinations - would love to read about them

Planning to go to the MIA next year, how long would you recommend to set aside to attend?

I would recommend at least a few hours, say a morning or afternoon.
The building itself is worth exploring, even before you get to the collections.
I'd have a wander around and then maybe take a coffee break and admire the view over the bay before exploring the rest.
