Agree. SYD-DFW was decent expresso coffee done well. YVR-SYD may as well have been stewed/brewed it was so bad. Not even close to CX pre-covid cawfee but.

QF76 YVR- SYD 27 Sep. I'd had a large meal in the lounge so only had a cheese plate and fruit. Although, the menu didn't hold much appeal for me. Drink refills totalled 2. The crew seemed to disappear not long after the dinner service. Breakfast had new choices, and I elected for the...

So like a Woolworths self-serve checkout, right? Except we were self-unloading this trip

Today was a real doozy - QF76 ex-Vancouver to Sydney lands about 20 minutes early. We roll around to the Gate 8-10 area but keep going. On stopping and seatbelt sign off, the CSM informs us that due to lack of a gate space or parking, we have arrived at the Qantas freight terminal, a set of...

AA1415 DFW - YVR. 0930 departure. The Worlds Happiest And Friendliest FA (yes, I finally found her!) gave me champagne (well, I asked or champagne and she never corrected me) in a water glass, so a decent serve, whilst boarding. Had breakfast in the lounge so went for the fruit plate, which was...

Free to good home

That would make sense. being a cardboard box, they had pulled out the side flap and had a good rustle. It wasn’t like I packed it. Also my suitcase looked like it had been tumbled around. All my neat packing had been undone and things were all over the place. Hate to think how they get handled...

My wife chided me on that point, but I was tired and had a headache. Won’t do it again. No note from the TSA and the carton had been ripped open. They are only exhaust extractors for an old Mustang which could have looked funny on an X-ray. I put some luggage straps around the box, so anyone...

Final US leg of my jaunt was DFW-YVR. A lesson was learnt yesterday - my bags were tagged through from CLT to YVR, even though it was an overnight connection in DFW. I queried the check in lady about it and got the impression that the bags would come out at DFW and all I needed to do was a bag...

Ahh see I was on a 2 hour turn around for a CLT flight. Today, I had a DFW-YVR and hit up the Flagship First lounge. Review to follow 👍

My take is she is not impressed with AJ management and is going to try to fix it. If she walks the talk that can only be a good thing in my view. But, talk is cheap so time will tell.

I’m currently in the US on a jaunt and have hit a few lounges in the AA network. First was the admirals club at DFW, terminal C. Entry was fine, nearly a little bit a glitch but then she saw Emerald on the boarding pass and I was in. This is a big lounge but not spacious of seating. Plenty of...

AA First from Charlotte to DFW. Flight planned for 1905 departure, snafu saw it delayed until 1950. Pre drink consisted of water or orange juice, delivered with a decent amount of warm nuts, with cashews, pistachios, almonds. Drinks orders taken first. Had a red blend wine (FA description). Due...

QF7 breakfast. I didn’t get a pic of the menu as were we encouraged to fill it in before putting our seatbelt on (or so it seemed). No more bacon and egg roll for this redneck so went with a scrambled egg, snag and kale dish. I didn’t realise they now have espresso machines on board so took tea...

Yeah, technology beat me. Trying to upload on the tarmac with no signal. But that means you get a more in-depth post.. New menu they told me on board The arancini ball was good, firm and flavourful. I went the salmon salad and despite not being a salmon fan this was delicious. Full of...

QF7 September 12

Sydney F lounge till 3pm Can guest 1 on a QF flight

7 Aug 2024 LAX -SYD J Nothing on 7th being Friday - Hobart lady said no chance, everyone wants to be back for Monday - so had choices of 8th, 9 and 10. Interestingly, there is a QF18 which is a 787 leaving LAX an hour after QF11. Might open some more seats?

We are looking at some thing, but 2025 (2024 got hacked by a river cruise) Botswanabudgetsafaris.com have so far offered a decent mix of private lodges/concessions and per day rate. Not a recommendation but an option perhaps?
