I'm looking at booking an award flight using United miles from SFO to BKK, via Tokyo. Inbound flight on UA metal SFO-NRT, longish (8-9 hour) layover, then onward from HND-BKK on NH. My questions are around getting myself and my checked bags from NRT to HND for the connection. Will be in business.
I assume I can check my bags through all the way.... Read More |

As far as the BA website and indeed this forum had lead me to believe, as a Gold member, I am able to bring a guest into the BA lounge at Gatwick, providing both of us are travelling on a BA or oneworld flight.
However, when I tried to guest a colleague into the lounge yesterday, who was travelling on another BA flight. I was told you can only g... Read More |

At the end of an epic 3month trip, looking forward to direct flight home only to get a text to say it is cancelled tonight. Online chat tried to persuade us to go via Singapore. Asked them not to book it yet, and they then withdrew the chat and booked us on Emirates via Dubai without consulting . Leaves three hours later, 4 hour layover, will get h... Read More |

The last night of my stay was my 2000th room night at a Marriott property. I had notified the hotel staff via the mobile app chat function and they told me it would be my most memorable stay ever. I don't really think my experience was up to that level. When we checked in, we were upgraded to a top-floor, jacuzzi suite. I have to say that we were n... Read More |

I just hit Titanium w/ 78 nights last year. Not once did I ever receive any kind of room upgrade. I'm wondering if that'll change with Titanium, or if it'll be like status with American... you just never get to the front of the bus. I just passed over to Executive Platinum, and my last flight I was [URL=https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/usertag.ph... Read More |

Been flying in and out of BUD lately and I consistently find BA had resorted to parking the plane at one of the old “Wizzair stands” where stairs will be used and then you’ll have to schlep it on foot up the stairs, through the corridor and through passport control. A delight in inclement weather.
I’m not one for BA-bashing, never been, but betw... Read More |

So... I did the AA status match thing and flew AA for the last ~60 or so days. My first-ever AA flight out of HSV was on a CRJ9 and now my likely last-ever AA flight will likewise start off on a CRJ9 (aboard now, AA5903). I’ve flown domestic-only, all in paid J, so I can’t compare long haul J. On the 25-ish segments flown, I never felt that AA was... Read More |

hi there,
for an upcoming trip to Japan, I am wondering what is the best way to get my hands on JPY...
I am Swiss based, so I would be changing from CHF.
I know going to my local bank here to get JPY would be perhaps the worst option.
Is it best to change money at the airport in Japan or maybe get a Revolut card and load my account then change... Read More |

Members, I've been Diamond for several years, but I've had to use Southwurst for flights from STL to MCI all year. I'll be 20k from Platinum by the end of the year on Delta. Is it worth spending $2k on a mileage run for potential upgrades for first class upgrades in 2020, with a potential of 200 flights? If so, whats the best mileage run to get... Read More |

Some folks here on FlyerTalk have mentioned the phrase"Pub Service".
"Pub Service" has been used as if the phrase itself is a full and complete explanation why passengers are getting less food and drink.
It seems to me that I am getting the flowdown of corporate newspeak that has meaning to the airline but these new limited offerings weren... Read More |

On Jan 4th I fly BA0423 leaving AMS at 07:30. After all night (land) travel it would be nice to get... Read More |

Hey folks,
I have an upcoming flight BKK-NRT-JFK, in Thai Airways F and ANA F. The connecting time for this Aeroplan redemption is 50min. From what I've read this is a very achievable connection at NRT, assuming that the inbound is on time.
That said, I've never had to make such a tight connection window & I've never transited through NRT,... Read More |

I seem to recall seeing a sign at T5 recently saying that short haul passengers can ask to change to a different flight same day for free? Does anyone know if this is still the case? It seemed that it was independent to the Eco Plus ticket, as I booked with Avios so couldn’t change per ticket rules, but maybe T5 is more flexible?
thanks! Read More |
