Great video mate! Saving hard to fly MEL-SIN next year in First for the Singapore GP. Think this video was just the motivation I needed to make it happen 😂

As a fellow Aussie I think this video is great! Keep the good work up!

Nice video, really good review. I'm from Adelaide and flying out to Scotland next month. Im looking to do this exact route on he way home to experience the A380 first class. It looks like theres quite a few spots available to book even less than a month out. Just hoping one will open up on the date I need!

Going to be booking a rewards seat for August (Sydney or M 1:21 elbourne to LAX) and trying to decide between QF on the A380 or AA B777. I've heard that service on the A380 can be pretty rare. However, I am intrigued by the idea of possibly being able to snag a first-class seat at the last minute (with the understanding that the product will still be Business Class, just in a 1st Class seat). I'm just not sure I want to fly AA.

Which Singapore business class is your favourite in order from a380, A350 long haul, A350 Regional and the 777. And are the seats all comfy?

Really great video and as always super informative mate. I've also used QANTAS wine as a huge point earner for a while now, and agree it's an easy way to get those extra points. Especially with a linked credit card. Not to mention enjoying some great wine. So now I've got the points, just need to convert to travel. Your tips are a great help. Might even take you up on the email reach out down the track if I have issues with securing those somewhat elusive business reward seats. Thanks again Cal, cheers!

I have tried to use the car hire option on qantas website for our next overseas trip and I keep getting an error message. Unfortunately I have also found the health insurance to be hugely more expensive than normal health insurers.

hi mate can you please help me understand what you mean at the end of the video" flying a connection flight will bring the tax down" did you mean still fly EK but in 2 legs? or just fly non EK? I can see the tax on EK are always so steep. Thanks mate

Hi mate quick question, if you couldn't find any return tickets do you just buy economy back?

I am going BNE to GLA in a week in first class as it’s on my bucket list. Love your video. Best I have ever seen letting KNIW what to expect

Food and service dreadful !! Otherwise nice and amusing review. I have been flying JAL and ANA but will try Singapore Airlines soon. Qantas Tokyo to Sydney is 20% cheaper than JAL and ANA, but is it worth is to be so uncomfortable and with such awful service.

Great review. Looking to book this same flight in July to try out Qatar F, but having second thoughts due to the reduced menu / service and overnight nature. Would you fly this again or wait for another flight to fly during the day and have a full menu? If you had to choose between this v Emirates A380?

Hi mate. Love your video. Its great when you accomplish a goal. First on Emirates looks amazing. And the shower!! 💪🤠. I fancy your turkish moustache 😹😹

Wow that’s amazing to only pay 170k in points plus the taxes for first class.. thank you for giving me inspiration to do same

Tail Number 9V-SHA is incorrect. This is a A359 metal.

Thanks a lot for the video!! However, does it seem like the business class lounge a bit fetter than the first class lounge? Or is it just me 😅? What was so special about the first class lounge?

Thank you for another great video! I'm looking forward to my first international business class flights on Singapore Airlines in December this year and will make use of your very helpful information 🤗

Thank you for the video! It was very informative. I plan to fly Singapore Airlines from Adelaide to Singapore for a concert on New Year's Eve this year. So this video was perfect for me. I'll be travelling alone so I'll be sure to book an even numbered window seat 🤗

Very poor service.No wonder Qantas has been shit .That leprechaun really stuffed up what was once a great airline. Flying to Mexico in business next month and after this presentation I wish I had booked with another airline

Thank you for another great video and tips. Last month we used the Air New Zealand lounge on your advice. It was much better than the MEL Silverkris lounge, and for our late night departure it was almost empty with only SQ and TG departures left before closure for the evening. SQ excelled as usual on our 4 sectors to HND and return. The Changi T3 Silverkris lounge is much better than the T2 lounge.

What is the difference between the long haul product and the regional product? I'm thinking of flying on Singapore Airlines from Adelaide to Singapore for a concert on New Year's Eve. Thank you for the informative video!

how did you manage to get the flight for 67,000 points? Im currenly looking for flights mel>sin>hkt and that amount of points only seem to stretch for an economy seat

hi mate, i was revisiting your video today and found out that virgin website no longer show any reward seat even if gyoza and other similar website showed sufficient availability, do you reckon its a system error today with virgin?

Great video! That non touch screen is insane

Another wonderful video ❤ I was about to book EK first from Mel to Singapore return for about 200k Qf points AND $2450 AUD IN TAXES. YEAH NAH.

Great review mate. Im from Melbourne also and plan on using the awards seats in future. How far in advance did you book and was it a Economy booking that you later upgraded or straight off the bat? I saw you used Velocity points as opposed to Krisflyer, didnt know you could do that. Couldnt find info on any of that but will be sure to browse through your videos! Thanks again

Great review thanks! Particularly the middle seat option when traveling with a partner!

One of the best summaries in one video. Well done. I'm also using seats.aero to find reward seats. Similar to Gyoza.

This was fantastic!

i find booking for partner airline would require slightly more points and more taxs, but not a lot. do you agree mate

Watching this to bank up points for the honeymoon 👀 cheers legend!

Bro you have earned me as your top fan. Story is, I paid 10k for business class 2 adults and 1 kid business class mel - sin - pvg return this arvo with Singapore airline. Now before that last night I redeemed Cathy pacific business reward from mel to pvg but quickly realised that Cathy has no reward seat back so I cancelled Cathy within 24 hours and since I have the Amex platinum I scored a 10k deal with Singapore which is usually 13k retail. It was my first cash purchase of business class and people tells me that it was good value already so I’m quite happy. My mom in law said she wanna join us one way from pvg to mel and I wanna treat her but she also said her plan might change so if there was no flexibility she won’t fly. Guess what when I was just watching your flight review I quickly got excited. This video is gold to me as it ticked all the boxes for me. I randomly searched our return flight hoping to see a reward business seat and there it is! I quickly linked and transferred some Amex point to velocity and got through in five minutes and secure the seat. Result is this, 92k velocity plus 320 tax. The retail price for one way is 3500 Aud so it’s about 4 cpp. Now even if I use a 1700 Aud face value of the ticket as it was on par with my cash price for my own business return it’s still 2cpp. I cannot thank you enough mate. I’ve been watching quite some CZcamsrs out there but your non-crap to the point style is what I love. Thank you so much mate and I hope your channel keeps growing.

Are your subtitles always on?

Great guide - sounds like an exciting alternative to expertflyer. Does Gyoza search outside VA and QF routing ie reward seats on their partner airlines?

Completely disagree. I fly, monthly from and to HK and when I fly up, because it is during the day, I fly economy. When I fly back, for my HK - Mel or Sydney leg ( I live in Adelaide so connect through either city) I bid for upgrades and almost always get a business class seat which is flat bed and the J product on Qantas which in my view is the best in the sky. I note he said nothing about the crew which is the MAIN reason I fly Qantas - they were fantastic during Covid and before and after, and will always be the best. A testament to this: so many were laid off during Covid, started other businesses or accepted non-airline jobs, but then returned after the worst was over. Experience matters. I stress I am not paid one cent to say this.

Probably more of a gripe with Qantas more than anything, but I can't tell you how many times sites like gyozaflights or seats.aero shows there's availability and the Qantas website also shows availability, only for the site to fall over when you try to book the seats because the seats are not actually available

Looks pretty good. I think I prefer seats.aero for the abililty to search from / to all major EU / AUS / US airports rather than just to a single desination.

we should take the "spirit of Australia" off them

This is brilliant information! Love watching your vids, so easy to understand. Keep up the great work! 👍

I have shared Callum so I hope you don't mind. I met this site a few months ago but unfortunately the cities I was looking for weren't available. I was checking for melb to algiers for September first or business. The city algiers wasn't an option. Anyway, may need to revisit it. Thanks for posting. ❤ your wotk

This looks great. How would you come with seats.aero or pointsyeah?

We did the exact same thing! vacate the SQ lounge for the ANZ lounge, we were the only 4 visitors and the lovely Staff member gave us our own personal boarding notice.
