    Melbourne taxi drivers refusing to take fares under $15

    Having spent most my time in Sydney over the past few years and started to think cabbies up there were actually pretty decent.... Well... the majority. Since I've being in Melbourne - I can't believe how cough they are. Even going $10 city fares to MCG or Lygon St!! I've recently picked up a...

    OLCI and boarding pass

    I always do OLCI but never have a printer available. They use to not like this practice and I got the "so you've done OLCI so you must have your BP"... always replied with "Sorry printer wouldn't work". Things have changed now and they never say anything at check in and I have found the kiosks...

    NZ (WLG) outbound immigration

    Last flew WLG-SYD a few weeks ago. Departure tax payable at check-in via C/C. The international side of the terminal only opens an hour and half before scheduled departure (..I think its an hour and a half?). You can get into the Dom QP - which is comfortable. My experience at the Int QP is...

    Man seriously hurt during airport brawl (Sydney T3)

    Me thinks there will be a lot of CCTV footage. Not only of the brawl - but of the gang members waiting for the others at the gate. Obviously a premeditated attack.

    Any Advice? Very bad Credit Card debt...

    IMHO, the water saving techniques listed above are not going to save too much $. Water is no more than $2 per kilolitre from town supply. Be more worried about paying $3.50 for 600ml Pump Water at Calex.

    Qantas order of precedence

    Apologies. Did a MEL-WLG and WLG-MEL back about a month ago (for the Rugby Sevens) and was allocated 4A there and back. Hope this helps your sample.

    Qantas order of precedence

    I'm auto allocated 4C or 4D (on 73's) usually on Dom Y fares. I am WP with 900 SC earnt in my 4.5 months so far. On 76's I get auto allocated 23 more often than not. I've noticed an increased number of op-up's this year also - however my travel has increased 2-3 fold since last year. Just my...

    media request

    The HeraldSun in Melbourne has an article on Frequent Flyers today and quotes a user of frequentflyer.com.au (do not have the paper in front of me). The article was in relation to MP's airpoints earn and their use for personal flight. The article (and HeraldSun in general over the past week)...

    Hmmm... Interesting. I searched, booked and flew yesterday for $500 NZD in J. Just did a search now for flights today AKL-SYD and back up to $1100 NZD.

    qf e-ticket

    Yeah I have this issue lately with one of my E-Tickets. I'm certain its not a software problem as the other 20 E-Tickets I've had so far this year have opened fine. In this occassion - it was a booking for a another person and I just forwarded the E-Ticket and they asked me why it wouldn't...

    Business Saver Fares from NZ-AUS

    Anyone else noticed the rediculously cheap J Savers available from AKL lately? $500NZD one way incl. tax (<$400AUD). Pretty good for SC's. Don't seem to be able to get J Savers from AUS-NZ though.

    Another great day for the media-QF A380.

    Yeah when I OLCI'd today for SYD-MEL-SYD tomorrow I was suprised to see my MEL-SYD allocation was 4D.... Unfortunately not op-up, Just a change from a 763 to 738!! Not usually a fan of the 73's but will grin and bare it! Wondered why the change when I booked the last night and both were...

    Karratha - a shambles and QF is a disgrace!

    Flight time changes at the airport on Red-E-Deals

    I get this "lecture" when I try to get on an earlier flight with cheapo fare. As mentioned in another thread, I give them my own "lecture" back, along the lines of it being to QF's benefit to get me on the next flight or I'll be having 15 Bluetounges! I once got an agent that laughed... :lol:

    Flight time changes at the airport on Red-E-Deals

    So more luck in securing earlier departure with QuickCheck than normal check in procedure?? Cheers for the tip. I didn't think the QuickCheck software would be that smart. I'll try next Dom flight (Sunday) and report.

    Quickcheck Upgrade Jackpot

    Thats a good change.... I always try travel on cheap Red e-deals, even if that does mean I could spend many hours at the airport if a meeting finishes earlier. Had some good luck getting changed (from non-changables) at smaller airports but SYD and MEL won't budge. I do have a chuckle...
