Surely these days getting to SIN with QAN is getting harder and so must be worth something?

Yes, but I wouldn't get too worried as currently the door prize is either a QF pen or one of the old Florence Broadhurst amenity kits from J

Second prize, two of the old amenity kits

 

[Joshua]

Well I'm still a maybe, but I've been very vanilla boring and booked like the rest of you. I'm on QF5 up in J, unsure which DOM flight I'll take yet - I know you'll all shout Flounge time! but I enjoy sleeping in too How many HH Diamonds will we have at the Conrad? They're going to run out of suites :/

Will go QF52 back, but not sure how exactly. Looking at JASA or otherwise $1000 return Y+ fares ex-SIN right now. QF52 easy points or cash upgrade opportunity. Last time I did this exact combo they offered me a cash upgrade on 52 when arriving on 5 the prior day... options...

 

[Anna]

Any ideas for Friday night? Somewhere near the Conrad maybe?

PrincessK, medhead and I get in at 1920. I will be well fed and watered so will just go with the flow.

I would like to visit the new conservatory/greenhouse before heading to SIN in the arvo. That is my only plan, apart from all the lounges, of course.

 

[Ansett]

I am very very tempted to do this can get sub $600.00 via br now how do I break it to Mrs Ansett

Takes a quick of stock of the cognacs and notes we are down on Baron Otard Perhaps this is a good enough excuse?

I think that is excellent logic.

 

[Ansett]

Yes but will Mrs Ansett This is the question and sadly she cant come with me as she has comitments that day. I could fly up and back on the same day

Just tell her the truth.

You have lost the plot and need a weekend away in SIN to meet with others who have also lost the plot.

 

[Simo]

I have been keeping an eye on this thread.

But due to birthday parties I am out.

Nah, they're overrated.

 

[medhead]

Ok, I'm very close to booking the conrad. How are we set for conrad lounge access?

I may have to go handbag shopping while everyone else is looking at gardens and such.

Speaking of which, would it push friendships to ask those on QF52 to pool their goods import allowance? :?:

 

[SFSC]

I'll be on that flight too. I may be a little too well fed and watered for an old bloke by the time I deplane so I haven't planned on doing too much. Next afternoon I'll probably start lounging at MH over at T2 and will probably come across everyone somewhere 'round the traps.

No problem. I had thought of getting a Ham radio but have decided against it for this time.

I am HH Diamond, so happy to have a 'partner'.

I will be getting a few things (hic!) at Changi so may not have any allowance to share.

Thanks guys. The question is about getting a $1500 handbag. But SWMBO might not need it.

Oh and part of the reason I did the spreadsheet was to count the hotel lounge partner numbers. But too hard at the moment.
