I'm considering booking flights with VA in August. Domestic. Anyone think I'm nuts?

It's hardly the same thing though as really how many pollies and senior public servants actually choose to fly Virgin if QF is on the same route?

Is a party of 15 even allowed? What kind of party was it? THIS is the kind of selfishness that will cause another cluster, kill our elderly and vulnerable AND keep the bloody border closures in place. :mad:

With the UK having the second highest death toll in the world (ignoring China's lies), I'm not sure that approach has been very successful, are you?

Because then they won't infect the family they are staying with. If you read my post I said people could only isolate on their own home if they are alone or with people who are also isolating. If they go stay with someone who is still going out and about, and infect them, we've suddenly got an...

Would love state borders to open, but international arrivals need to be required to hotel quarantine (AT THEIR OWN COST) until the global situation is under control (if that ever happens). Aussies returning home could be allowed to quarantine in their own homes as long as they wear a lo-jack or...

This medical professional is concerned by this virus. We are learning as we go with regards to treatment, spread, disease progression, everything. In the meantime, people (particularly in the US and the UK and parts of Europe) are dying unnecessarily. We have been really REALLY lucky...

I got woken my a QR flight going overhead in the middle of the night this week. I was straight back to sleep though but was interested in the route it took DOH-MEL Looked like it was coming straight in over the northern suburbs but then turned abruptly south at Coburg and not sure where it went...

My husband and I have been wanting to do this for more than a decade. Great to see there's an app now and a really comprehensive website.

Well that's a bit pants for you guys. I hope you find a suitable replacement soon. x

The mad cow prohibition frustrates my husband too. I mean, surely after 30 years, it's unlikely you'd have nvCJD?

All I see here is a bunch of sport-haters complaining about the resumption of sport. And complaining about people coming from a country that has virtually eliminated the virus - AND THEY WILL BE QUARANTINED - is just petty IMO. There are plenty of people arriving on evac flights from India and...

So if you aren't allowed to be served food or drink, and aren't allowed to bring any on board, what do they expect people to do on longish flights? Anything over two hours and a lot of people would be thirsty, at the very least. And most of us eat to stave off boredom on flights. As for...

Really the ad format would write itself too.

Having spent a bit of time in both QF and VA lounges in the last year, I dispute the assertion that QF lounges are better than VA's. The QF J lounge might be better but I've never noticed a difference to the QP domestically except for the booze is available an hour earlier (which it is in the VA...

Soon they will need to disassemble them and go back to the drawing board, I hope.

Imagine my surprise when I went past the Louboutin shop in Collins St and saw they are now making shoes for my needs. 🤣 I can't do heels. Heck sometimes I can't do flats.

When we went through BKK and SIN, they take your temp once then sit you down to rest for a few minutes (I don't know how long) and take it again if it's elevated. Presumably to allow for people who get hot like that?

Zoom is fine if you password protect your chat and send the invite privately.

We live two streets back from a 6-lane road in Melbourne. I have remarked to my husband how little noise we're getting from it the last week, as the lockdown really starts to bite. He hasn't really noticed but it always depended on how the wind blows. Now, there's not a rumble, no trucks, no...
