I'm planning a trip to Australia in August likely flying London-Perth and returning Melbourne-London.
What is considered a good J fare for Australia? At the moment I can see returns for about 3k, using a combo of BA, Cathay and Qantas flights. Is that a good deal? Read More |

I was in NY for a day at the beginning of November. This morning's emails included one from US CBP telling me I had ten days left before I would have to make sure I was out of the US (it's not a scam email).
Any ideas how to deal with this? The email comes from no-reply address, and CBP's Contact Us webpage pull up an invalid URL message. I've t... Read More |

Anyway, when boarding I was shown to the first cabin (great I'm in first... Read More |

Just had a seat change for operational reasons on the BA226 from ATL on 5 March. Opened the seat map to change my seat back to something sensible, as I’d been moved next to someone else, but couldn’t otherwise see any difference (I am in WT+)
I am expecting this flight to be on the new 787-10, but the seat change makes me think maybe this is no... Read More |

Any accountants in the room? If I pay for business travel using APD, can I claim it as an expense for tax deduction purposes?
Before anyone flames me, the reason for the question is that APD are pretty much the same as spending real NZD, so just wondering if there is a precedent for this.
TIA. Read More |

Hello,
Quick question about seat selection. I've recently booked two economy tickets on an Air NZ flight. I suspect that due to being *G (through SQ) that I was able to make a seat selection (at least the site allowed me to do so).
The site did allow me to choose both seats (exit row which I assume normally does cost extra?) without charge.... Read More |

I usually bring a carryon when I fly and typically only check it when it's cheaper to do so or when I'm forced to check it. My current bag isn't holding up very well after about 50 flights this past year. One wheel is locking up, the telescoping handle is whack, and the thread from the carry handle is coming loose.
I'm looking for a quality bag,... Read More |

Hi there.
Planning on visiting South Africa using avios in August 2021.
I can fly (from LHR) to either JNB or to CPT and fly back from the other.
Depending on availability, I was hoping to do the outbound in F.
Currently, I see no advantage to flying out to JNB rather than CPT [s]other than it costs 20k less avios in peak.[/s]
The choice of arriva... Read More |

I'm currently booked on a Virgin Atlantic flight across the bond, but due to a schedule change, I have the ability to change to a flight time that gives my wife and I several more hours to spend in Europe. But if I make the change I'll be on Delta metal, instead of Virgin.
It's my wife's first time to Europe, and she rarely flies up front, so I... Read More |

I was booked to fly TUS-ATL on DL2789 (booked via VS) connecting onto VS110 on Saturday January 18. DL2789 arrived 17 minutes late (no reason given by CC) for a 35 minute connection so I missed VS110. The DL agent rebooked me onto AF689 connecting to AF1068.
My original arrival at MAN on VS110 should have been 08:20 on January 19 but I actuall... Read More |

Got a nice surprise today! BA upgraded me to Club on the flight to Denver (from WTP). A colleague of mine was double upgraded too to Club. From the various threads here, I selected 64K as it seems to be a very popular seat. Was wondering though as it is the last row in the upper deck, will I risk not having my first meal choice?

Would I have acces to the lounge in ATL? The first class ticket isn't Delta One. Neither one is. Read More |

Delta and the others fly in the same atmosphere as United and they aren't blaming global warming.
