  • Virgin Australia won’t rush into new domestic business class

    Dec 09, 2019, 09:47 AM

    It's more than six hours in the seat BNE-PER including all the faffing about before takeoff. Almost 5 hours on the way back.

  • NZ's visa-waiver scheme: what you need to know

    Sep 18, 2019, 11:47 AM

    “ensures our international visitors contribute to the infrastructure they use and help protect the natural environment they enjoy.” This is absolute BS.. Visitors already pay GST on ALL their local costs. A two week visit that costs say NZ$ 300 per day, the visitor will have paid NZ$...

    Nine hour layover SYD>>HKG>>LHR Could scarcely be worse that it is right now

  • Qantas rejigs reward bookings for partner airlines

    Jun 24, 2019, 11:53 AM

    I laughed when QF last week said "it was a long time since the cost (in points) increased for redemption.

  • VA status for AirNZ Elite?

    Aug 21, 2018, 03:41 PM

    FYI I checked with VA about lounge access in WLG or AKL for international flights in December and there was no answer available. Perhaps they will resort to a $20 voucher LOL.

  • More Qantas business class cost-cutting?

    Aug 21, 2018, 03:34 PM

    I am not sure why the (airline) focus on time of leaving. Lots of people are connecting from "elsewhere" so the local time in SIN of HKG is irrelevant. Perhaps the best way forward is to extend Online preordering to allow people to "opt out" and get some sleep whilst others can be in whatever ...

  • Where are the Virgin Australia award seats to LA?

    Aug 15, 2018, 11:13 AM

    I tried finding a Business Class seat to LAX from BNE for the middle of next year. I searched EVERY SINGKE day from 1 February until 11 July (2019) the last day they have on sale. Not one seat was showing available. the only way I could see to LAX was on 12 June via MEL , naturally for a hight c...
