  • How to get a gold status match with Qantas, Air New Zealand

    Apr 21, 2021, 03:33 PM

    I applied for the Air NZ Airpoints gold status match and it was the easiest process ever and it was granted overnight with the nicest personalised welcome letter so I am really impressed.

  • Best business class lounge dining rooms

    Jul 17, 2019, 04:40 PM

    The Cathay Pacific lounge at Mel airport is tiny, there's never any seating as it is always full and the food offering is basic.

    Apr 24, 2019, 04:45 PM

    No need to trouble yourself with worrying about carriers as you could do QF out of Sydney then Finnair AY out of Beijing to Europe via Helsinki but must make sure you choose well and that you are on their Airbus A350 or A359 sorry I can't remember but one is set much nicer aircraft to fly.
