The announcements seems to be made approx 2 - 4 years before any visible works commence. In the case of Auckland it's been longer than that but presume the pandemic slowed that down. Of course there would be work happening in the background before visible work commences.

Hi, I'm looking to achieve QF Platinum for the first time and to get me over the line I've completed 3 of the 5 Green Tier leaves. However it looks like I'll get there without needing the 50 SC's from this. My question is, if I go ahead and complete this close to my membership year end, can I cla...

Boarding groups will give you all the above. With "declined" coming up on the scanner should you try to board before your group is called.

This is a terrible change and poor form from Qantas. No doubt this will be rolled out on A321 XLR and A350-1000 as these new types come into service.

Connection time is 1 hour 45 mins.

Hi,I'm travelling United business Sydney to San Francisco, then have an onwards, short haul domestic connection ("First" class) on United on the same day, same itinerary. Will I have access to the Polaris lounge in San Francisco? I'm Velocity Platinum if that makes a difference. It doesn't seem ...

Air NZ have also just announced a delay to their ULH config B787-9 delivery date. It's blown about by about 6 months at least. So you'll have to wait even longer to see that.

Thanks Jeppetto367,Yes looking forward to the new first lounge. Flew out of there recently but it was 10 days before they moved to the new terminal! Reviews (including yours) look good.

Hi, Can't find an answer on the website. I'm flying business on Etihad from Melbourne to Abu Dhabi. Can I bring a guest flying economy into the lounge? I'm VA Platinum if that makes a difference. Etihad website doesn't have a lot of info about lounge guests.

Thanks @Flyguy_1983.I'll apply for that certificate now!

Do I have any recourse as a Qantas FF member with missing points claims on Cathay Pacific flights? I had a return booking from Melbourne to Manila (via Hong Kong) on Cathay with my QFF# on the booking. The outbound flights and the first leg of the inbound flight all credited to my account. The ...

Can anyone recommend a car service from Abu Dhabi to Dubai? It's probably going to be from city centre to centre rather than to/from the airport.

Hi, Travelling in business on Etihad from Abu Dhabi to Melbourne and VA website states access to the First Lounge in Abu Dhabi. I can't find any info about that on the Etihad website however. For those that have been, do the door staff know about this arrangement? Will I need to take my VA Plat c...

I'd say they've been generous. They got you to your destination on the day you planned. Flight times aren't part of their contract with you. However, I sympathise with you and agree that as a Gold FF myself I would also not expect to have been bumped off the flight. The fact that they told you t...
