Actually thats a really great idea - now I think of it this was on a Jetstar flight (had flown tiger earlier that day) and also the ipod did not out until the flight people were seated hmm one area where tiger may actually have a better routine :mrgreen:

yes I have been - does it show :shock:

So I guess the verdict is better safe than sorry on a plane? :) Days later and the whole thing still irks me, its not appropriate for someone else to put me at risk (albeit tiny) to listen to their music. Ah well if the airlines were serious they would collect them or confiscate them if...

:shock: darn, it looks like my dilemma to go RTW ticket or in flight segments may be solved for me

Kate actually it is. I remember seeing it last night on the card, pictures of flames outside etc outside the plane (hey it was a late night flight and rather uninteresting) ;)

Actually a lot of people just have carry on. So this would slow them down. Having said that, I think thats all part of the normal catching an airplane. It might get a tad fustrating, but where lots of people move around its bound to get snarled. No biggie :D The issue of phones/electronic...

Actually thats a good point I never thought about it from the point of view of holding others up when disembarking I am just bambozzled by the airlines saying turn equipment off because it can interfere with the planes systems, and some passengers just ignore it. Either they know its a myth...

Just came back from a trip and yet again observed a few passengers blatantly ignoring the "safety" rules: ipods on all the way through take off/ascent mobiles on when landing Should I actually be worried about this. It seems negligent of airline carriers to trust passengers to do the right...

Darn I think in my newness I have put this in the wrong spot. If a moderator sees this can they move it to the right home pretty please :mrgreen:

OK to cut a long story short :D Husband and I have an around the world trip planned for 2010 (I know still ages away) One of the options we are looking at rather than a RTW fare is buying cheap tickets for different legs and then taking our chances to upgrade. But I do not have any idea...

Gosh I know when you give something away you don't necessarily expect something in return, but to not even get a thankyou :confused: Its happened to me as well, not with anything airline related. Sort of leaves you with a weird feeling. Not that you expect choirs of angels singing your...

Hmm I wonder regarding access maybe it could be a pass you could print off the net? Or velocity members could buy a guest pass like they do already but a "mini pass" just a thought :)

Re "light lounge" how about a vending machine for the drinks? Not exactly sure how it could work but when you swiped your card maybe you could get a couple of codes so you could get your beer/small bottle of wine You could also put the snacks in the machine as well.

Not sure if this helps - but if you have acess to "Entre" - Amex program you can get 15 months at $275 so a little bit of a saving there if you wanted to join

No they do not apply the same standard - as far as I have read. The news sources mention that recently a male purser got stuck in the aircraft toilet and it had to be dismantled to get him out. Oh and as for overweight For an 18-year-old air hostess with a height of 152 cm, the maximum...

train service is cheaper is you are transferring between flights From the sydney aiport website: Airport Link offers a $14.00 (one way, per person) transfer ticket for passengers transferring between T1 International and T2/T3 Domestic Terminals. If you are transferring between flights, a...

Hiya Thanks for that - I check the mag and its not there - that I can see so the hunt continues :) I'll check out the Qld ones We are planning a big trip - and the idea of um "essentials" that can be dried overnight is a big plus

Hubbie came home from a trip on Monday and mentioned an article about quick drying jocks? Does anyone have access to the article and can check on the manufacturer - he neglected to remember :shock: Thats the only info I have to go on - so if someone can enlighten me that would be great :mrgreen:

Cool We would definetely be flying budget - given that time off work is very costly. :mrgreen:

Just after opinions on these types of airfares Is it still worth getting a "round the world", or with the increase in point-to-point low cost carriers should I just put the money aside and then buy as fares come up? Any opinions - the two persons looking at it are mobile, and while not fans...
