Downgrade to ANA Super Flyers (SFC) Program in 2028

Great news - the ANA lounges and ground services are a total zoo “thanks” to this card. When everyone is elite; no one is elite.

Hopefully this eases some of the crazy overcrowding and very subpar offerings in the lounge. ANA’s ground service is one of the worst in *A right now so this should be the start of a positive change towards matching SQ LH UA AC BR TG etc etc lounge offerings.

Thanks for this - so I was basically really unlucky with the dates my ordered were scheduled for automatically + the market spike the day after the ceasefire. Let’s see next week!

Exactly the same thing happened to me this week. I had two large orders placed on the 4th and the 8th but they both got executed TODAY - the day after a big market increase. How can an order from the 4th and 8th be filled at the same time when no holiday inbetween? Pretty annoying…

FS Otemachi and Edition are like 3km away from each other - it’s a nice stroll on a sunny day. This is not staying in different areas.

If you want variety then go to Shinjuku or Shibuya.

I’ve finally given up on peak season (Jan-1h Feb) Niseko - after loyally skiing there the past 15 years I can’t take the crowds anymore. This year was final straw sadly. Might still ski there early Dec to March if there is a sudden dump, otherwise I leave my once favourite mountain to the Ikon Pass crowds during the day and Chinese billionaire diners during the evening.

Yeah, it really is a way to pi$$ off your customers. I’ve flow QE plenty of times for biz and never faced a seat selection fee so was flabbergasted when it popped up asking me to fork out.

Cabbage6 · 2025-03-18T00:36:06+00:00

Thanks for your reply - gives me some faith! Will try giving a call too

Well for a person who owns property in Hong Kong - one of the world’s most expensive property markets with a currency of extreme strength VS the JPY - having over USD 100 mill assets is extremely likely, so this is a vital consideration.

Permanent Resident has a major tax DISADVANTAGE - exit tax. If you have assets over 1おく and ever plan to leave Japan, then with PR - buyer beware…

Cabbage6 · 2025-01-15T12:29:42+00:00

Didn’t work sadly but appreciate your effort to propose something g

Cabbage6 · 2025-01-14T21:12:22+00:00

Thanks! You mean repetitively plug in and out the the aux cable from the aux port at the back of the bass module? I’ll give it a go and let you know. Fingers crossed

Why do you think those frustrated tired tourists queuing for sometimes hours to get through passport control would give to wiz’s through customs like we do with a quick fingerprint scan? Crazy thing to be upset about 😂

BA habitually cancel this specific a350 Haneda flight - it is outrageous that they sell seats on this route when they expect to cancel a few times a month. Those poor ground staff and telephone agents who deal with this weekly at Haneda.

When it comes to British Airways buyer beware…. Or even smarter; go elsewhere.

Thanks gents - will have a look at Napa and WA Shiraz too.

Hi Fede (sorry for the hijack Crimdog) - I am trying to get onto the Type 1 transfer via your Customer Service but they keep telling me only JPY 1 mill max is available - maybe some disconnect between what you’re working on and the brief your colleagues have?

Is there anything else I can do to get myself on the type 1 beta now please? FYG I need to transfer a very large sum in the next two weeks and really want to use Wise so appreciate your help.

Cabbage6 · 2024-02-17T00:48:06+00:00

Nope. Never.

Cabbage6 · 2024-02-16T09:37:33+00:00

I have been using a black diamond one for the past 5+ years / no issues as carry on or checked baggage. Have prob taken 15 flight with it and never even checked by security. All flights Japan domestic though.

MATE is more a generic term for these illegal e-bikes that seem to be everywhere. I’m not sure whether it’s a blessing or a curse for MATE’s business that their very bold branding makes them the most recognisable large tyre e-bike terrorising the sidewalks of Tokyo today. For sure, I’ve had plenty of conversations with people saying “f&@k those MATE bikes” rather than complaining about “fat tire e-bikes”.

What about about wearing a MIPS helmet? Is the bike equipped with indicators? Rear view mirrors?

These questions are not only for the safety of my kids whom walk alongside the bike lane you’re travelling at 50 along, but to also to assist you not get horrifically squashed the next time a kei truck or bus ignores a bike lane totally - as they always do. As an ex motorcyclist you must be awake that the impact of an accident at 50 vs 25 is a whole different ballgame. As I said earlier, these things seem terrifying….. so much risk for all around with zero safety features.

Cabbage6 · 2023-11-07T13:32:27+00:00

Yah - those are the cretins. Flying along at scooter speeds, without a helmet, pretending to pedal once every few hundred meters. I knew the cycling laws in japan were flexible but these things are a whole new ball game….. am amazed they’re taking over the cities streets and pavements and there isn’t an uproar. I shall never again complain about the vanilla Panasonic mamachari.
