jeeeeessssssshhhhhhh

Fancy complaining about a measely $710 joining fee into the QP. Imagine all the HP you could down in the few hours you'd be there. Imagine all the great food you would be eating for free....FREE!!!! FREE I TELLS YA!



Anyways....for my $710 saving, I'll should buy my lovely wife a nice facial and massage for $200. I'd buy a couple of PS3 games for $250. Maybe a 16GB USB memory finger for $50 and then spend the $210 on food and drinks in the terminal at LHR.

careful you might get caught out by region coding

PS3 Region is only locked for Movies.

I though Europe and Oceania both shared PAL region coding?

Ah OK - Xbox360 are region coded like DVDs - so you can't play an Asia game in an Aus console (unless you have had the console chipped).

Year two is much less than that.

Yeah was about to say...you pay an initial joing fee and then the renewal fee is much less and the more years you join for the less you pay and can be paid out of FFP...would pay to check though as this may ave hcnaged with the new QF FFP.

Any Reason Why You Are Starting All Words With Capital Letters, rather than using normal English and only starting sentences with caps? Normal usage makes it easier to read, no major hassle, just that if your post is easier to read, then more people will probably read it.

Departing from Terminal 5 for the first time next week on a BA flight to Milan and wondered which of the lounges are available to QF platinums.

I am meeting someone flying into Terminal 5 from Hong Kong and continuing on the same flight as me to Milan and wondered if I could also guest him into the lounge?

You should be able to access the T5 First lounges with one guest. They have business, first and the Concorde room - the CCR is only open to people travelling in F.

There is also I believe a J lounge in the B satellite terminal that you can access if flying from that satellite.

I have spent about 8 hours in the F lounge and it was OK - internet, comfy couches, champagne (hurrah), food made to order...

I just dislike T5 as they force you to walk through the mall away from the lounge and then back towards it due to the odd positioning of the lounge entrance. Once past that the lounges are decent.
