    "The perfect destination for everyone" - is that even possible?

    No perfect destination exists in my lexicon or experience and therefore I doubt it would in many others experiences. In any case we all change and what may suit in April may not suit in May!

    What happens if you tick “yes” to respiratory symptoms when you check in?

    There are lots of rules everywhere to protect administrators and organisations when things go wrong. It is a case of exercising common sense and being reasonable within the bounds of polite consideration. You ought to be best to decide what that is.

    Hertz - Electric car fuel charge

    I am hearing the opposite, too much hassle for the time-poor renters. EVs work best when city-driven from home charging, therefore owned, and the infrastructure is available. I was in CDG last week and seeking a rental car with only EVs available at one stage - very telling.

    Hertz - Electric car fuel charge

    What happens if you tick “yes” to respiratory symptoms when you check in?

    Could you call the airline you are booked on? Equally important is how you feel. Is the trip, say, CBR-SYD or MPN to FCO? I am not sure what respiratory symptoms mean, but if you are coughing and wheezing, will bother others and may need oxygen, then I probably wouldn't fly.

    SQ Tips, Trips and Tales

    So what did you think? Would you sell your soul for a repeat? Any pics? I clearly need medical assistance as I find higher-end Champagnes does not agree with me these days over a prolonged period of consumption. When I was a prodigious SQ flyer last century, I found the drier and more tart...

    Alcohol duty free concession

    Kirkland's is also a higher quality offering than its marketing label, and public perception would tend to suggest. https://liquorlaboratory.com/who-makes-kirkland-gin/

    Unknown catering on MH from 1 Sep onwards (caterer "transition")

    Agreed. It may be acceptable at Guantanamo Bay, but on a 4-star airline, it shows ignorance and a lack of respect. We can only vote with our feet. Previously I have asked the CSM to turn them down, which he did oblige, but this should be part of their SOP and not require Sprucegooses’s...
