• Totally agree PK!  Visited the lounge when it first opened in 1997 and it was stunning.  One small dining area and plenty of space in the lounge with waiter service at your chair.Now it feels like a cafeteria with so much space turned over to dining.  I have been there as a revenue...

  • Sounds good to me - I thoroughly enjoyed both the Business lounge in Doha and the TPG in Singapore.  Speaking as someone who has paid for either business or First since 1989, I have seen the lounges (particularly Qantas ones), lose quality and service over the years.  The International ...

  • I must love hiding away from the world as I loved the door option in EK and SQ F.  We have had 4 legs in Qsuites and thought it was amazing.  Travelling as a couple you have a fair bit of space between you and the door and with the central divider down it’s a terrific space.  ...

  • We are in the same boat as Mckiggan - long time Qantas flyers - we are Life Time Gold with them.

    28 degrees (credit)+ Citibank plus (cash) Used this combination all over the world including places like Kenya and Rwanda and it has worked beautifully. Both are fee free to hold and no Fx fees.

  • Flew OEB to Santiago in January. Left 4 hours late, because first the Entertainment system wasn’t working (they never got it to work adequately), then one of the galleys wasn’t working. Horrible Business class experience. Said at the time it needed to be put out of its misery, so g...

  • US Domestic Lounge Access

    You have your QC membership that will get you into all the AA ones. To be quite honest they are pretty marginal (apart from the Flagship ones which are nice). They give you a quiet place to sit and a drink and a few snacks.
