I like MUC airport.

Same here, it's great airport MUC. Wish SQ flew from there with F so I can avoid FRA on award flights..

I guess if your tix allows many connection in Europe you should do short hop. MUC-AMS-FRA-LHR... short-haul n C but get at least 2500 miles right?

I'll actually be over the SEN threshold by about 3000 miles. It's just my last flight is on the 31st of December. So if something happens and I miss that flight, I'd be screwed big time.

Well it seems your TG 777-aircraft BKK-MEL leaves 00:15 or 08:10 on Dec 31st. So, it should be no problem for that last segment credit. But again, once you see the flight credited into your account, and no sign of SEN status, you should call M&M right away. Definitely Dec 31st flight should be counted for the whole 2006 qualification period.

OK, changed and ticketed my flights today. Shaved off more than a grand...phew
Now I just realised that this TG 772ER is a very new a/c, so info about where to sit is extremely scarce! :S
Since it's 2-2-2, I'm thinking like centre row to avoid the inflight gymnastics associated with a combination of answering nature's call and reclined flat seats...maybe in the middle of the cabin, like 3rd row from the front, to avoid babies at the bulkhead.
Comments, anyone?

Going off SQ's 772ER's then it's bulkhead window all day and every day for me, 11A/11K. No idea how TG are numbering their a/c but I would go for one without hesitation.

It gives you a window and aisle access without gymnastics

Thanks mate. I'm currently booked on 11A.

You may wanna reference this as TG's bulkhead seat, though its on the 744.

Oh, hott! The bulkhead is definitely the way to go then.
I spoke to a TG agent on the phone today about the new planes. He was very enthusiastic and even went as far as to say 'we're going to be like Air NZ with these new flat seats.' If I wasn't an informed consumer I'd be mightily pissed when I step onboard and discover the difference between fully flat beds and angled flat beds. :S

Nice find. The SKL ICN looks very nice. I've never been to ICN before; the SKL seems to be the shared *A lounge there?

I was contrasting those pics with pics of TG's MD11 seats. They've come very far indeed, and are proceeding quite smoothly with the reconfig. The Golden Goose will always be my favourite of course - but can't complain with TG's much cheaper prices on certain routes.

I've always liked 777s - there's a certain coziness about them, yet the seats are more comfy in Y. But of course, on the rare occassion that I get to check out J - the upper deck rocks.

The ICN SKL is a great lounge, probably my favourite outside SIN. SIN only wins becasue of the Dom.

ICN is a great airport, and the SKL is one of the biggest lounges there. It's on two sides. Bearing in mind the exellent SKL facilities at ICN, it makes you wonder why they've not got one at Suvarnabhumi. I'm sure trekkie will put it down to more SQ cutbacks.

I had a bulkhead on the new TG J on their A346 on MEL-BKK earlier this year. Very nice indeed, probably helped with having no seatmate.

One can only imagine what the person sat next to 'MagicalChaz' makes of his behaviour.
