Sydney. Not sure if it's permanent or just this week. I'm back here next week so I'll know more then.

They must be really cutting back! Received a welcome letter Monday evening. At the bottom of the letter they have a blurb about having complimentary drinks for priority club members on Tuesday from 6-7PM. I go down to the bar at 6:15 to be told that drinks were cancelled.

CP Darling Harbour Sydney No recognition other than a PC sticker on the room key folder that says "Platinum Member".

Apologies for bumping up an old topic but I have to say well done to Virgin. I wasn't expecting any form of compensation from Virgin, nor did I ask for anything but I received a phone call saying that as a valued customer they are going to credit me $199 because of the inconvenience caused...

The 1700 flight from BNE to MEL that I was booked on was cancelled at 2200. I managed to get onto another flight which landed some time after 0200 today.. I can't quite remember the exact time. The lounge did get a bit rowdy after 6 hours of drinking time! Hopefully my 1900 MEL to BNE flight...

A few weeks of camping and fishing is in order for us. No flights, no hotel room, no mobile phones or computers.... just what I need after a busy year.

Are you able to provide a link or PM the details to me?

A very productive day for me today. Wake up early, get on 0530 flight, land at 0815 in CBR. All day project work finishes at 1100 so back to the airport for an earlier flight home..... Nope my company has booked me on a DJ go fare for the 1735. Looks like I have 6 or so hours in the CBR...

That's what surprised me, he wasn't wearing a seatbelt for takeoff or landing. I was on the opposite aisle seat 2 rows back so had a good view of the unfasten seatbelt hanging under the seat. I'm pretty sure you have to have the armrests up for takeoff and landing too, but there was no way...

I actually saw something very similar on a flight from BNE to DRW this year. The gentleman had the armrest up and was 1/3 into the aisle. I was very surprised that QF allowed him to fly with 1. the arm rest up and 2. no seatbelt for the entire duration of the flight.

The Doc gave me the shot today after giving me another booster that I needed. It was an easy process - shot in the arm and walk out the door. He did mention that he gave himself the shot last Friday and felt really ill on the Monday. So ill that he cancelled his appointments and went home. He...

You'd be surprised. We had lunch at a few of the 1 star restaurants and only paid $50AUD for the two of us. The guide has a whole range of restaurants at various prices.

Where are you based? I have a copy of the latest Michelin Restaurant Guide for Hong Kong that you are more than welcome to borrow. As others have mentioned, it all really depends on what style of food you are looking for. HK restaurants are very diverse. One restaurant I particularly...

Booked 4 nights at the HI Cairns over the Australia Day long weekend. It was perfect timing as DJ even had the flight for a decent points rate (26400 points return).

Thanks for the report Karen. It's a shame that Rick isn't hands on in the kitchen. No surprise though. Most celeb chefs seems to be more executive chefs and only take part in the menu creation. I'll definitely be making a special trip that way to go to the restaurant. Do you know what the...

Have you finished dinner yet? :) :) I can't wait to hear what you thought.

I don't have any scales here but it's quite heavy. A lot heavier than most bags this size. Edit: Found the weight on a website - approx 4.25kgs

Well it arrived today. Definitely thinking about buying another one as a spare! It's one sturdy feeling bag.

Great review. It reminds me of my stay. We got back 2 weeks ago from a week long holiday stay. I have to say the service there is perfect. I cannot fault the hotel. I booked the cheapest twin room and received an upgrade to a full harbour view room. All I can say is WOW. What a view. The photo...

A little piece of advice - stop now. This can only end in pain! Next you'll be watching Top Gear and drooling over the cars. :lol:
