Oct 15, 2024, 08:28 PM

Agreed so how does SIA keep ranking so high in the surveys?

I am staggered that the soft product (which doesn’t include pyjamas) gets SIA such high votes in best airline awards when the hard product is so poor. Added to that, its Star Alliance partner ANA has proper business class seats and beds and recently had a special Sydney to London return at ...
United cuts flights to Australia

Looks like a clear sign that the outrageous pricing particularly for J to North America is well on the way to normalising. United made hay while the sun shone and now they can repoint to the next windfall rent route.

Simply put the Singapore Airlines seats are roughly rubbish. Sleeping on an angle ...

So-called "Classic Plus" is total disgrace!

So if we all want to punish Qantas for this cynical attempt to get us to burn our impossible to use points, we need to only book non QF metal with FF points.

The typhoon conditions in Manila made that decision for them, but the need to cancel the TK flight from MNL to VCE was a shame. Turkish airlines refunded within hours less ...
7 hour layover in LAX

Fully endorse the Venice/Santa Monica idea. Venice has by far the better breakfast/cafe/funky vibe. If you are comfortable on a cycle there are plenty of places to hire one after your coffee at the Aussie inspired Great White and you can swing up or down the coast - to Santa Monica you pass Muscl...

AA is a great J hard product. You will be very sad if it is foggy in Sydney or Melbourne, night before departure seems sensible…
American Express Travel - Why is it so expensive?

Useful for hotel and rental car bookings, rarely worth using for flights.
