Qantas Hawaii Business lounge. We were thanked for being Platinum by the crew checking in our luggage. After she'd weighed our hand luggage.
Already given the death stare to a jerk playing a movie without headphones. Toast and Vegemite hit the spot. We didn't eat much last night as we were watching the AFL Grand Final in our cabin
Lounge emptied out as we arrived but we took the seats furthest away from the madding crowd. Got off the ship at 7,35 by carrying our luggage and had booked a nice cool car to take us to the airport. Upgrade to J for the 10.5 hour flight is bliss. We are both still coughing a little at night. We were on an excursion where one guy kept hacking his lungs out. Everyone was getting rather sick of him by the end. He should not have been on the bus trip. It got quite revolting. Wish we'd taken masks. We do not need another infection right now.
After we waited more than an hour for our bags to come out (Dnata) we caught the first train to Lucerne. It's glorious here. Wandering around in a t-shirt in bright sunlight.
