    Jury Duty

    The security folk with their real sword & kilt fetishes will see through the replica sword scam like a scam-seeing person seeing through a scam!

    Scams like these

    I know this comment is a bit facetious because the elderly can’t necessarily cope … but given how easy it is to avoid being scammed, in many ways I’d prefer not to pay higher taxes & higher Telco charges, not to mention a reduction of everything I say & do being actively tracked by government...

    The good old days

    Rose-tinted glasses though … five-star service used to cost a greater proportion of the median wage than it does now, air travel in Y in the early 70’s was more expensive than J now (yeah - odd concept but some of us don’t have points and think about fares in dollars :)).

    Wow, Pan Am used to sell J at Y prices? No wonder they went broke!

    Scams like these

    I dunno, even in the place you’re referring to (CCP Land) I observe differing preferences …

    Indeed, if we all liked the same things the world would be a dull place!

    When to leave home and head to BNE airport?

    I reckon somewhere between ages 18 & 25 ... then head south or overseas, and don’t look back.

    You’re the very first person ever to recognise this after 53 years … I’m sure everyone else will follow shortly!

    OK, if you frame it in terms of "WTF am I going to do with myself while waiting for the next flight?" then you've convinced me. :)

    SYD Named 5th Most Luxurious Airport in the world

    That’s not too bad; but compared to the cost & effort of a trip even just to Southeast Asia that saving of $90 all-up really ain’t that much, even the return train trip to the airport chews up half of that.

    SYD Named 5th Most Luxurious Airport in the world

    Since it’s improved so much since mid 2018, which is really only 3 years if you remove the limbo; mebbe it’s just the newness of the refurb at play vs QF J being … a couple of decades since they changed anything?

    SYD Named 5th Most Luxurious Airport in the world

    Wow … the QF J lounge has plummeted since 2018, if the Skyteam lounge is now better than it! In 2018, Skyteam meant a red or a white (if you asked & waited), a VB, and maybe half a stale Jatz …
