Currently sitting in the ADL QP, I'm on Qantas this week for a break. Entry was funny. Flashed the card, when through the ritual of have you checked in? Yes. We need to see you BP, with an indication to go to the service desk. Where upon the kind CSA printed me a BP. I decided to mention that I didn't want a BP, to get blank stares in return. Then I explained that with the card I don't need a BP and at that point the first CSA kindly said "some of them don't want a BP". Interesting exchange, ...

This week I was on Virgin Blue again on Monday morning. Their priority boarding worked a treat. I was pretty happy and I also liked that the first 2 or 3 rows in Y had empty middle seats. The crew were also really friendly, helpful and professional. But they seem to be that way on most of my flights on all airlines. However, I didn't really want to talk about the things that work well. I wanted to mention the something that is really becoming routine. A 30 minute delay for the flight. ...
I've been on a campaign about priority boarding for platinum flyers, since the latest round of enhancements reduce platinum benefits. I submitted feedback at least thrice on the non-provision of this published benefit. Even most recently sending in a positive note about cabin crew helpfulness to another passenger with a recent delayed flight.

They provided me with a Y meal while the person next to me had something better. Another strange coincidence, for closure, was that on both occasions it was a 734, I think. No doubt this was a case of karma is action, given all the whinging ...

I guess the first bit of information I should add to that question is that SWMBO is very understanding. It probably helps that I did actually get her a present in March. A wonderful present if I do say so myself. Almost on a whim, I took myself down to Tiffany in Martin Place in Sydney. I'd read all about the Picasso designer range in the Qantas inflight magazine and thought that "She" would like that very much, thank you. So I asked the helpful lady about the range of pendant's in the ...
