Frequent flyer dismay as Emirates axes this Australian route
Sep 09, 2024, 02:06 PMNever been a fan of 'coffin class' on the B777, irrespective of airline or soft-product. Noisy cabin and cramped narrow seats. Perhaps if EK had upgraded their old layout with the current (in progress) refit, it might have garnered a little more popularity.However, with the return of additional Q...

This Qantas lounge is like a restaurant inside an airport
Sep 08, 2024, 03:17 PMAny hint on what variety of Lallier champagne is being peddled, David ? I find it somewhat curious that this 'exclusive partnership' for the SYD & MEL lounges is seemingly so ... 'low key'. The downloaded menus don't even give it a mention, by brand or more importantly, variety or vintag...

These ships now offer dog-friendly cabins
Aug 21, 2024, 04:27 PM@David,You might want to revise your opening reference in respect of Qantas. Last May, I travelled SYD-LAX on QF 11 A380 and was surprised to see a passenger in the front Y cabin bulkhead row with an assistance dog - and not a 'handbag' model either. It was a cross-bred Labrador, which rema...

What’s it’s like to fly in the Qantas A220
Feb 25, 2024, 05:03 PM@david - and thanks from me, as well. It answers the question I asked 22nd Feb. Any insight into why Qantas has chosen not to take advantage of this option? My guess would be it is only because it may have had an impact on either the aisle width, or the ability to make all three of the right...

Mar 17, 2024, 12:47 PMDid you ever stop to think that some Platinum One members might think that mere Platinum's should be removed, as well ?Just asking for a friend :-)

El Al Melbourne no show?
Feb 28, 2024, 11:19 AMSid - I appreciate your comment above.However, I seriously object to the wholesale removal of the original posts on this thread, without some sort of comment by the administrator(s) as to 1) the fact that posts have been removed and 2) no explanatory reason for their removal. Doesn't need to be v...

United Lounge access on Intl to Domestic connection
Feb 25, 2024, 10:51 AMHave to concur with StuParr (above). Polaris information is spot on - but 45 mins to clear Customs and Immigration in SFO? You may need that lounge access more than you think, as you await to join a later flight. It seems to me that your planned connection is less than the required MCT (minimum c...
