Data point: Mr k_sheep had enough SC to requalify for SG but didn't have enough ~. My fault - I just scanned and saw there were more than 4 QF flights, not quite realising some were reward flights. Offered 80k points to reinstate. That was a heck no for me.

Apologies all - I'm trying to upload photos but keep getting errors. May or may not get time to copy photos onto laptop.

First stop: Melbourne. Overnight stop booked mainly because mr sheep and kcuz are very time-anxious when it comes to flights. So an overnight stop helps alleviate that anxiety. The fact I found a Red Hot Room at the Novotel airport helped greatly ($184 for 3 people) so we would not have to...

Been a while since I've done a trip report so I'm a bit overdue. To be fair it feels like a while since I had a holiday ... then I remember I was actually off work for most of February and March ... oops! This trip came about as an excuse to avoid a cousins wedding we reallllly didn't want to...

In Florence currently, having spent a couple days in Rome. It was all absolutely heaving with wall-to-wall tourists. Also still 35ish degrees so Poms everywhere were expiring and dramatising in the heat. Okay for me because I did everything I wanted there back in 2005, but my travel companions...

Oscar, Daniel, Valteri, Liam and Jack ... winning ANZAC line up. RIC just needs to secure himself a spot. I do have to say I'm thinking the Sainz/Albon driver combo is exciting - both very hard working, hard thinking strategic drivers.

Afraid so - I have 1 guest spot but 2 guests.

I'm late to the game, but are the Paris themed pajamas still a thing?

I thought it was very difficult for planes NOT to glide ... that video is giving me new nightmares. Eesh.

Stayed at SIN Swissotel the Stamford earlier this year. They had horrible self service check in computers that even the roaming helper staff couldn't figure out how to use (and 2 guests I were staying with are professional IT nerds so not user error). Finally got in to the booking and it pooped...

Good call on Bandung, have put that in the plan.

Agree from me; I'm a millennial and am strongly in the camp of "don't make me download an app for something that renders fine as a webpage".

Hi all, other destination guides for CGK are 10 years old now so thought I'd revive it for my own selfish purposes! Got a week in CGK end of August. Suspect that's a bit long to spend just there so taking suggestions for trips away! 3 youngish/middleageish people who love nature, food and are...

It's a hard, hard year being a Gasly supporter. At least I got a formation lap?

Still? Jeepers I thought he was years past retirement when I worked there 15 years ago.

Had availability showing for 2 dates I wanted BNE-xMEL-CGK, got the 15079 - 23951 - 421 error. Phoned up, they couldn't see it. Tried the entire week for release, via MEL and SYD with no luck. Very odd.

I flew this route regularly when Alliance ran it - very happy it's back!

Aaaaand in a classic move, just had to take her to the vet. Noticed she had an ingrown claw. Did you know indoor cats generally needs to have their claws trimmed? I did not! Never been a problem in 15 years. Oh well will keep a closer eye on her now. Luckily didn't need sedation and it...
