Lol. Literally the only direct flight from Australia to London. Let me talk to you about living in Canberra..

I tried it about two weeks ago onboard, didn’t have it at the CBR J lounge just prior so can’t comment on exTap quality. I imagine I will partake in one if it’s onboard in about an hour... I agree, I quite like it as well. Quite tasty.

QF859 - DRW to ADL lunch 23/04. Options were a Quinoa Salad, Chicken with a lemon sauce and a Beef Brisket. Went with the Brisket. It was nice enough, nowhere near Meat Maiden standard but it doesn’t get much better than that! Came with a rosti which was swimming in the sauce so a bit soggy...

Congrats on Gold. I would assume so, but not in a position to confirm. However, I recommend not using them. I’ve found that my bags on the odd chance that I check them are almost certainly going to come out last if I use the bag tag compared to a paper tag, even as a P1 flying J. Very...

This was my initial thought as well. Moved for trim that cleared the seats and then someone jumped in there. Potentially pax on staff travel also if J was full...

Just booked my flights through to Feb next year. Was going to retain P1 anyway but every little bit helps toward the LTWP! Just need to keep it up for like 10 years.....

No idea what is going on there, but I thought I noticed something odd yesterday! Thanks for the confirmation. CBR-SYD flights to catch the DRW connection in the morning are Dash's now as well. Have had to move my flight's to DRW to be via MEL on the Sunday night (assuming they don't get...

I'm doing breakfast flights (no, I don't want the damn potato frittata...) until the end of March. If it hasn't been provided I'll send a pic then (assuming its being carried)...

Just had my kit delivered. Confirmed 2007 750ml and also in a presentation box.

I must admit, I didn’t think too much into my comment about the re-badging. Perhaps Qantas is going to ‘enhance’ a pale ale to a lager...

Flew DRW-BNE mainline and BNE-CBR Qlink last night and they didn’t have it on board on either. Mainline CSM said she didn’t think they would see it until 24 Feb. I’m assuming it will just be 150 lashes in a different tin...

Apart from the limited bar it is about normal for the BNE/MEL/SYD to/from DRW pre-covid. There is usually a snack (cookie/ice cream) 3/4 the way through. It was there on the way up so I assume it will make an appearance in an hour or so. Just glad it isn’t the salmon I’m sure used to follow me...

QF841 DRW-SYD 09 Dec 2020 Hot meal was a lamb shank with mash and peas. Quite tasty. Bar was quite limited as is the current trend, but sufficient.

My year ends 30 November, I am sitting on 1883SC for this year. I have flights (domestic only) planned for next status year that will see me get 1920SC from flying through 30 November 2021. Baby due in the middle of my status year, so this offer suits me perfectly! I'd imagine the following...

Not sure if this one was mentioned; bulkheads above kitchen cabinets or even cabinets to the ceiling to avoid horizontal surfaces that are hard to clean... It gets pretty gross up there when fats and oils are able to settle out of the way. It has definitely been mentioned, but I concur; future...
