    Qatar Airways may buy Virgin Australia in full - what are the consequences?

    Ola closing down in Australia

    When in their cars, I often talk to ride share drivers about their experiences on the different platforms, and generally there has been consensus that ola is a dud. A few said they thought it had already closed down, only one said he liked ola. In the competition between India, China & the USA...

    China Airlines business class?

    IMO this is a very pleasant Scotch (I do not like single malts and only drink blended). I disagree with your assessment. I think finding it in Business Class is amazing, it is normally reserved for in-flight service on intercontinental First Class (IME on other airlines which serve it).

    And there are a few CMs who disappear from the cabin 5 minutes before the announcement, in anticipation of it, so they don't have to do any drink refills and last minute service requests.

    Virgin Australia Business Class - Meals, Menus & Service

    Usually pita and the hummus on a separate plate on the side. Ooops, I should have mentioned that it was a 90 minutes scheduled service. (Ticketed arrival time minus ticketed departure time. i.e. how a passenger views schedules, not the crew.) So not a PER/international flight, where an...

    Survey re Premium/Standard Qantas Club Proposal

    source: We have seen this happening at Delta Sky Clubs in the USA - where there are now regularly queues at the door of some lounges to get in, and long wait times (some abandoning the line, as their flights are called for departure, without ever entering). Pictured above is a JFK T4 Sky Club...
