Sluggish China market prompts air service changes
Keithambrose replied to reader's topic in The Beer Bar
Fair point that the yen has weakened, but I think food, though excellent is still pretty pricey. -
Nude boys in hard hats?

Departure on the far right-hand side of check in area. It is signed.

Japan is a lot more expensive. -
How much responsibility do you feel for mitigating others' mistakes?
Keithambrose replied to unicorn's topic in The Beer Bar
I always try to leave 3 hours for connection time, to be on safe side. If first flight is on time, no issues, relax in lounge or whatever. If flight late you stand a good chance of being OK. I too am amazed by pax, no doubt seduced by airline giving a short connection time, who have a 40 minute connection. Seems to me crazy, unless you would like a heart attack! However I was caught out by an MAS flight from Perth, that was 3 hours late into KL, and I missed the flight to London, in the morning. However, I was met at the door of the arriving flight, rebooked on the night flight, free hotel room, in airport, all meals, use of pool etc. So good service . -
Didn't know it could be a weight loss drug!

Airlines giving frequent flyers ‘the middle finger’
Keithambrose replied to reader's topic in The Beer Bar
My Gold for life status with BA, is Emerald with other One World Airlines. I get access to Most First Class lounges, of airlines in One World, so long as am using a One World Airline, even if i am flying in Economy, including American Flagship Lounges. There is free seat selection, boarding in Group 1. I also get addional Avios seats made available. Which is useful, though it doesn't help with Australia, or Bangkok. -
If you are 18 or so, and can cum multiple times, yes, but how many of us can do that?

I'm a bit like PeterRS, accumulated millions of miles, almost all from business. I use mostly BA, as I am based in London. I became lifetime gold, which is very useful for lounges, and additional access to seats. I still have a lot of Miles, as I also acquire them with credit cards, and promotions. I use them fairly easily for European flights, where I can normally find flights. I am using miles to go to Rome and Prague shortly. BA have an option to pay more, and reduce the miles needed, which can work well. I also get a companion voucher with my Amex card, if i spend enough,which I can use to halve the miles needed. I am going to Sydney on business using that. I am not forgetting the additional taxes, etc, you pay on top, which are substantial on the long haul flights. It is very true that redemptions have gone up, a lot of long haul destinations are very difficult. I got my Sydney seat 11 months in advance. I did use miles for my last trip to Bangkok. There are almost no seats in biz to Bangkok, right up to next February! USA can be OK, NY and Chicago usually have a good selection. Strangely, there are quie avfew seats in August!. The site run by Rob Burgess, referred to above, has useful tips on how to use your BA miles on other One World airlines. 6 of my last 8 flights used miles, so I find them useful. -

TALES from a GAY LIFE (mostly in Asia) – Part 2
Keithambrose replied to PeterRS's topic in The Beer Bar
Yes, it's interesting. I have wondered for some time who he really is. Some of his posts defy reason, are clearly inconsistent, etc. However some members say they have met him. -
I was in an earthquake in Lima, having a gin and tonic in the rooftop bar of my hotel! I retreated to underneath the door, as suggested by the waiters, rsj there, but glad to say my G&T remained intact. Odd feeling, sort of grinding motion, with the windows creaking.

Glad to know that when my drink swayed, it was the wind, not excess of alcohol. My Office building in London did the same, the light fittings would perform a stately dance!

Sausages not on view, regrettably.....

Each to his own! When there is some wind, I get the impression that the building is swaying slightly, which is fun. I haven't eaten up there for a long time, so don't know about prices.

Is it not the most expensive hotel in Bangkok? -
I wish, bit unlikely. Vested interests are too powerful.

I agree. I tend to go there in the morning, and, in January, there were rarely any people swimming. I didn't see much eye candy. More at breakfast!

It's a shame that the Skytrain doesn't run all night! Would be very useful.
