Wow - thanks for posting about the Omena hotels - this looks like a great choice for us when we are visting the region. Sound like a weird question, but can you remember if the rooms had safes? Also it looks like they have microwaves, is that right? Cheers

so you would not be need air conditioning then :lol:

I have stayed at the tune hotels at the LCCT, Kuching and Penang All in all I would have to say they are good value for money - clean with a bed, shower, toilet and an in room safe There advertising is not too in your face, I don't think its any more intrusive than all the bits and pieces in...

:lol: I think my neighbours have already decided we are crazy ages ago I'm all for doing dreams - hopefully I'll be hanging out in North Alaska freezing each night for a month trying to see an Aurora but if its spontaneous and crazy, rather than the olympics, I would choose something with...

Not sure if this helps - but have you thought about leasing a car Here's an example: Peugeot Open Europe - Peugeot Leasing by DriveAway Holidays this is something we are looking at ourselves, although we still need to check into it properly It something the automobile clubs promote as...

I wouldn't but that just me such a short time :shock: we actually reversed our upcoming RTW trip to avoid Vancouver that time of year. I would ask yourself why you want to go, is it because a break is way overdue, you both want to do something spontaneous and crazy, or you really and...

Gosh sounds like I will be lucky to get a sensible response :shock: Its interesting due to the vagaracies of banking I got a huge fee on my bank account (its complicated but basically we checked before we did a transaction and something went wrong). I phoned the bank, and it was mostly...

Thats what I suspect to, but its interesting in all the BA material it seems the only place they mention closing times is buried (not anywhere in their flash ap that I can see). What they should be saying in their promotional material is that the arrivals lounge is for arrivals pre a certain...

Well my big 2nd honeymoon come "gap year" trip plans are further on the way and we are now booked half way around the world (just booked Tokyo-London with BA in Club World a couple of days back). I chose this service partly because of the arrivals lounge in T5, but darn it :evil: - I think its...

Cheers this is good to know - there seems to be so much competition in business class nowadays which is great we were planning the traditional RTW business class, until we started pricing up individual long sectors + a cruise (and a bit of economy in the US) - looks quite good :)

Finally getting around to booking the flights for an upcoming trip, and am tossing up a Star Alliance business class vs just paying for some segments One of the options is to fly British Airways - Club Word - Tokyo to London - Is a AUD $2800 fare a good price (one way), for a restrictive...

Hmm just a random thought If Jetstar and Air Asia can share facilities, then Air Asia can use the Jetstar facilties in Japan opening the much coveted budget Kuala Lumpur/Singapore to Japan link (been talked about for years!)

Re: QF/JQ/D7 getting friendly? How friendly I wonder? Friendly enough that Air Asia Passengers out of the Gold Coast could use the Jetstar lounge maybe? I know thats an odd question - but I am doing the trip soon, and you never know :shock:

Hiya I am not sure if this helps, but researching where to stay in New York I came accross the "Pod Hotel" - might suit you as it has single rooms as well as doubles I think they were around US$80-90 for singles As for food have a look at this Big Apple budget bites Hope that helps

I was at melbourne airport last night - it was PACKED at the Virgin check in terminal (I feel for those affected it would have been stressful). We actually had to fly Tiger (last minute trip and it was the cheapest by far). They were ontime, which I was not counting on. Checking in 2 hours...

When I did a bunch of trips to the Gold Coast last year hubbie & I would often be one of the very few (sometimes only ones) in the Sydney Virgin Lounge It was great - had their cinema room all to ourselves, they gave us the remote for it as well. Really great way to travel :)

Not sure if this helps, but maybe if the person buying your hamper talks nicely to the butcher they can vacpac it for you some of those vacpac bags come pretty big - so I can't see why not this will help extend its life a bit, and theres no meaty drips

Glad you are liking the lounge but since its friday i will keep the comparisons going get a netbook :shock: It shrugs off 2 hours ... 4 means serious business and 9 is the limit on no wireless/very low brightness I am a recent convert - $450 and 1.2 kilos - very tasty Eee PC 1005HA -...

:shock: Sounds like it:!: I am very keen to hear the trip report as its a place we are umming and ahing about going to Was it a lengthy process to get a Visa for China?

I am pretty sure Fairydown bought out Macpac some time ago so the jacket was just through the normal macpac stores in Australia It was on sale for about AUD$150 and we are pretty happy with it I don't think Fairydown make sleeping bags any more but I could be wrong. I too have one of...
