Review: BA’s upgraded Singapore Changi lounge
Feb 02, 2025, 01:35 PMInteresting. Thanks for the heads up.I have generally not loved the BA lounges, but for a couple of trips later this year, I have opted to build a 4 hour break at Singapore Changi Airport by taking QF83, rather than taking QF1 straight through - except, naturally, for the mad rush to slurp down a...

Qantas now offers early check-in at LAX
Mar 17, 2023, 05:14 PMWouldn't it be fantastic if they had this (reintroduced this?) option at Heathrow? It has been such a bunfight my last few flights, with queues snaking back into the thoroughfare causing havoc. If there was early check-in, it would smooth out chaos a little. I seem to remember that pre covid you ...

What was your best upgrade?
Jan 07, 2022, 05:18 PMMy one woman protest against Mr Trump was to not visit the US while he was in power, and Covid-19 has kept me in check since, so my upgrade story must be from 2015 or 2016.The trip was Syd -> LAX -> JFK. I am not sure if I was QFF Gold or had just clawed my way to Platinum for the first tim...

Replacement for Bose QC20 ear buds

Clumsy battery dongle and annoying airline adaptor not withstanding.I now use Bose QC Earbuds II (wireless) for everyday. While the second gen of these wireless earbuds are smaller and more ...

Contemplating a WISE card for travel. Opinions?
Apr 28, 2024, 12:30 AMThanks all for your feedback.Like sunnybrae I always have a backup card or two. Not (yet) for bank meltdowns but because I have had problems with the Qantas Money card when trying to book/buy things online while overseas. The authentification thingy that sends codes, fails me pretty much every ti...

Contemplating a WISE card for travel. Opinions?
Apr 26, 2024, 10:47 AMLooking at the conversion rates offered for my Qantas Money card, and the market rates, I am wondering if I should look elsewhere. The FF points become less of an issue, the harder it is to redeem them.I have been looking at the WISE card, and wondered if anyone had any feedback to offer. Better ...

Qantas 'Thank you' FFpoints or Status Credits
Aug 26, 2023, 12:01 PMWell, I got the email, and after checking the fine print to make sure the status credits accrue to the lifetime total, that is the option I am going for, as I will easily make my SC total by my anniversary date.The fact that I am closing in on 900,000 FF points and upgrades seemingly are non exis...
