They are not all bad, and I think the alternative could have been no virgin at all so I am relieved by this.I think axing the Club is the first thing they should do. The idea was presumably to buy favour with politicians, and that c...

Qantas, AA get new lounges at Dallas/Fort Worth
May 20, 2019, 04:00 PMWas there Friday night. Was nice and the Chicken wings were great, but given how people are excited it must have been bad before. No better than the Sydney Qantas lounge other than the upgraded food. Who know's if it will stay that way.

Segway's new Puppy 1 suitcase

At the very least this is highl...

Child's age changing during Trip
Nov 05, 2019, 09:59 AMHi, I am not sure if this is generic or varies by airline. As we are planning on Flying QF, I thought i'd ask here. We are planning a big trip next Christmas and my daughter will turn 12 during the trip. Given 12 is when you pay adult fares, does this mean we pay adult for the whole trip, chil...

Sydney Qantas International Business Class Lounge Vs AMEX Lounge
Aug 06, 2019, 12:24 PMThe Amex lounge is really really small. Like your lounge room small. I had to sit on a tiny stool for 1/2 hour till a couch came up. And the food was basic. Qantas is a lot better (although I agree, for food, special).
