No
Class in First Class Lounge |
The
First Class lounge is supposed to be a
luxury oasis away from the bustling airport
terminal. But one member's recent experience
left them despairing at the lack of lounge
etiquette displayed by other passengers.
This member's visit to Qantas' First Lounge
in Melbourne was spoiled by rude, noisy and
downright inconsiderate lounge guests.

Exclusive
Online Event:
"Buying Points in 2017: Why, What, When
& How?" |
Ever
wish there was an easier way to accumulate
frequent flyer points? Well, there is…
buying them! Numerous airlines actively sell
frequent flyer points - often with generous
discounts or bonuses.
By buying frequent flyer points, you could
fly Business or First class for Economy
prices! (Yes, really.) The trick is to buy
the points at a discount and to redeem them
effectively for high value flights. Often
the cost of the points is less than half of
the retail fare of the flight they're
redeemed for!
In our upcoming webinar, Frequent Flyer
Solutions will show you exactly how to take
advantage of these fantastic opportunities.
Join us at 8pm (AEDT) next
Wednesday, 29 November and learn
from the experts how to travel in luxury
without breaking the bank!
