• Too little, too late , BA. Not to mention those clapped out 777’s with those horrible business class “club world” (rolls eyes) seats. They were innovative decades ago. Now they’re just painful. And when BA does have First Class, it’s no better than an average busines...

  • I have just spoken to a fellow traveller in the Qantas business lounge about the A220. They sing its praises both for economy and business class. They will be deliberately booking flights that feature A2, 20, rather than the nasty, clapped out, Boeing, 737–800

  • I think you do. It is supposed to act as a pre-authorisation to travel. A Visa gives you permission to enter and stay for a particular time with particular restrictions.

  • I do the same thing. I have global with my UK passport, but I also have my USA ESTA on my British passport as well. Unfortunately I was silly and I put my Canada ESTA on my New Zealand passport… This makes it very confusing for check in agents. .

  • Yes you can, it’s just difficult and you will need to show your other passport to the check-in agent. When you leave Australia, check in with your British passport. Go to the smart you gates with your Australian passport. Into the UK on your British passport. When leaving the UK show, both ...

  • Why bother with Qantas?

    Oct 12, 2022, 04:21 PM

  • Booking EK with QF points

    Jun 05, 2022, 10:47 PM

    Booking on other carriers using QF points seems very difficult to impossible at the moment. I even called and asked. Lovely lady on the other end was as dismayed as I was.I suppose Qantas stopped buying seats in partners during the pandemic and hasn’t beefed up their operations yet (if they...

  • QF SYD transfer

    May 03, 2022, 07:11 AM
