    New Coles travel shop [Flybuys Travel]

    The only thing I can think of is that it will put a travel agent between you and the airline. For many this won't matter, but for some of the more high maintenance folk, this may be an issue. Having said that, I have not really heard anything bad about FlyBuys travel.

    Economy X [Domestic free for Platinum] - May 2017

    I read somewhere that Row 3 had moved forward a little, but so had the Perspex divider behind row 2. That made up for most of the additional space.

    All I've come up with so far is that LEA may not have even be on their approved flight plan as a diversion airport.....

    Through checking on separate itineraries: policies and experiences
