    Jumping the queue for take-off

    Hi folks, I saw this last week, and I was wondering if it was a common occurrence, or what reasons could there be for it? I was on a DJ flight heading for runway 34R at SYD. As we approached the runway for take off, there was a QF 738 sitting there on the taxiway presumably to be next to take...

    No more menus in the seat pockets in Y

    That would leave very little diference between a Saver and a Flexi, assuming that most of us here would already have baggage allowance. How was the food served? Wasn't in those flexi fare cartons was it?

    SC Earn rate for Saver Lite

    Hi folks, I'm not sure if this has been discussed in the other threads, but I hadn't noticed at the time despite having read the threads, so forgive me if I overlooked. :) Anyway, as the thread title suggests, does anyone know what the SC earn rate will be for the new fare classes? Knowing my...

    No more menus in the seat pockets in Y

    Just noticed on my last 3 flights that they no longer seem to have any menus in the seat pockets, and just have the last few pages of the Voyeur magazine being used for the menu. Do you think this is the way it will be? Was quite amusing watching the amount of people trying to find the menu in...

    Re: Sydney VA Domestic Lounge Pictures It's open, and there are only about 10-15 people here. Nice view of the gates from here.

    Sydney lounge not fully open until March 2013

    Re: Sydney VA Domestic Lounge Pictures I'm in the upstairs lounge. I took some pics but I can't get them uploaded from my phone. Will load them later from my laptop. Place is looking well, albeit not quite complete looking. The bar area is very similar to the Brisbane lounge, although a bit...

    I'm in the VA Lounge thread

    I'll be in the SYD lounge from 3:30pm for a 5pm flight to Brisbane if anyone wants to say "Hi" I can guest 3 people (and 4 single use passes!) Edit: Got a text to tell me that my 5pm flight was cancelled and that they put me on the 6pm flight, so I'll be in the lounge for longer.. Lost my seat...

    I'm in the SYD lounge now for a 3pm flight if anyone wants to say hi! Got an E190. Hope it's one with the new J cabin so I can stretch my legs in 3D!

    Flight attendants call for carry-on baggage standards

    This is true. I was just making that point that if there is a life raft there, then it's a worst time for crew bags to be taking up premium space!

    Flight attendants call for carry-on baggage standards

    This is something that really pisses me off! More times I have used priority boarding, and still had difficulty stowing my bag becasue of the crew bags, portable IFE bags etc. This is largely compounded if the plane happens to have a life raft stowed there too!

    Mobile check in

    Forgot about that! Guess it's been way too long since I walked across the tarmac to board a plane!

    Mobile check in

    I tried this a couple of weeks ago in BNE. It didn't work very well at the gate. On some smartphones the screen goes blank when it comes near the scanner, thinking you are putting the phone to your ear, hence causing difficulty with scanning the image. Besides, the machine spits out a boarding...
