  • Official: Fiji Airways joins Oneworld, adopts AAdvantage rewards

    Apr 01, 2025, 09:06 PM

    I've always avoid considering Fiji Airways as an option to the USA from Australia as Qantas Platinum due to missing out on lounge access and other perks but now that Fiji Airways is a Oneworld member - i'll certainly be considering it as an option now for flights to the USA

  • The latest on new UK rules for Australian visitors

    Dec 01, 2024, 09:43 PM

  • United Club - World Wide access to Star Alliance Lounges

    Apr 21, 2023, 01:29 PM

    Anybody heard of or utilised either Maple Leaf Club (worldwide) or the United club both memberships appears to provide access to the Star Alliance lounge network (except for Singapore) it appears.I'm thinking its potentially great value compared - an economy ticket with Star Alliance carrier gran...
