[left]I hope I’m not posting in the wrong place. I don’t know flying at all, but I have developed some health issues and can only tolerate flying non stop and business. I have never used miles or a third party company, but need to access less expensive first/business class fares. Is using a company like business-class.com a bad idea? [/left] Read More |

[left]I am really unsure of what to do here - I am balancing value for money.
I have made use of the £10/20 Hold fare for 72 hrs and have held a fare on Qatar to Singapore for £1533 and a BA flight for positioning to Stockholm for £226; I have found the Yotel hotel for £500 in Singapore but then I saw the BA001 pricing for the sale. And I reserv... Read More |

Yesterday night, I have bought a ticket from United and realized that it wrote Premier Silver next to my TK*G number.
I still have the free one checked bag allowance, but I doubt that I wouldn't get my United Club access nor my boarding group as I would fly on an elite heavy route and I don't want to gate-check my hand baggage.
Did anyon... Read More |

[left]Hi,
looking for for some input if possible?
I took advantage of the really good business class sale last night, not only flights but rental car too. It now looks like I won’t need the rental car, does the free 24 hour cancellation apply to the rental car booking.
I have separate PNR from the flights for the car, if that matters.
thank... Read More |

[left]I do understand that there have been some major issues over the summer with BA, but I was caught up in the lost baggage from Heathrow last month. All 7 cases were not on our flight, it was on my fathers 74th birthday so it was a horrendous day for both my parents, they had to go with out vital medication, majorly stressful arrival in Larnaca....

Hi there,
was at NRT yesterday and spotted B777-200 N210UA with some severe 'scratches' on the fuselage...I have never ever seen something like this before. Looks like she got into a catfight.
Anyone who what this is, and in this case, what caused it? Hail?Thunder?

[left]Hi. I’m sorry if this question has been posted many times but thought I would ask on the forum anyway. I’ve tried phoning BA but couldn’t hold on much longer. If I have a non refundable, non transferable ticket is it really impossible to do either even if I pay an admin fee. [/left] Read More |

Another week. Another mileage run. The last one of the year, or so [B]Mrs. SFO777[/B] insists and I promised. LOL. I'm off to Rome this afternoon on the return leg of a dirt cheap roundtrip that will get me close to FB Silver thru 2021. From Rome, I'm logging the requisite 4 BA flights that will let me requalify for BA Gold and my One World Emerald... Read More |

[left]Just a fun post for a change. Was flying with RJ from TLV to CDG via AMM in Business (mileage run, $580 for 180 tier points) on wednesday but my flight from TLV had 2 hours delay so ended up missing my flight CDG. Was rerouted via LHR which was annoying making me arrive at 23:00 instead of 15:30. The good thing was that I ended up in flying t... Read More |

Yesterday a friend flew EU-LHR (BA) LHR-DFW (AA) then was scheduled to fly DFW-ONT (AA).
The LHR-DFW flight was late, so he was rebooked on a later DFW-ONT flight. That flight had a posted delay of 3 hours, so over the phone I suggested he try to get an DFW-LAX flight. (ONT and LAX are about equidistant from Chez Nous.)
He arrived at LAX, bu... Read More |

Have an SFO-LHR RT coming up on VS, and will be Platinum when I land at LHR on the outbound. I'd like to use the VS Clubhouse on my return but it's 4 days later and the MQMs from the outbound trip might not have posted then. What's the best way to let VS know I'm PM so I can access the Clubhouse?
I'm in Premium, not Upper Class, so won't get it fr... Read More |

The other four are in coach, one of whom is BA silver (and Alaska gold). Can all six of us get into a lounge? Read More |

When I arrived at the hotel, I was informed that check in is at 1500 and the room is not ready... Read More |

[left]Just wondering, my parents have around 200,000 Avios points between them. Can they book flights for other people and get a reduction in price using some miles? Or does Avios points have to be used by the person that has them? I know you can do this with Virgin but not sure if BA did it. Many thanks.[/left] Read More |

[left]I found myself in a situation recently where having missed a BA-BA connection, I asked to be rebooked on the next flight which was actually AA metal.
I get that they refused because it presumably costs them more - but is AA and BA letting people swap seats in a disruption and keeping tabs, or are they charging each other corporate rates fo... Read More |
