    Etihad Plane (EY461) has issue after takeoff - Melbourne

    I'd say there's a slight difference between ETIHAD PLANE IN TROUBLE and 'there seems to be an issue.. it's circling over the bay and dumping fuel'

    Changi airside transits T4 to T2 can take well over an hour!

    True, but if you have time to kill airside, take the bus from T4 to T3 and then make the trip through Jewel on the airside Skytrain Saves having to clear immigration Just giving a time killing option for others - which unfortunately you didn't have on your transit :(

    Changi airside transits T4 to T2 can take well over an hour!

    CX moved operations back to T4 in September 2022, after the temporary move to T1 in April 2020 during the first Covid wave of flight reductions. (Cathay had been operating out of T4 since 2014(?)) Good to see they did re-open their T4 lounge though last Feb (2023)

    Changi airside transits T4 to T2 can take well over an hour!

    well noted - I meant that the transfer time between T4 and everywhere else has always been long - hence the reminder to check every time for a Changi transit - given there are changes to which terminals airlines use (ie JQ/3K) Grateful I haven't had to do one of these - but I am in the same...

    Changi airside transits T4 to T2 can take well over an hour!

    A good lesson to always check which terminal(s) your transits use at Changi. T4 is clearly separated by the T1-2-3 behemoth - and that means more time if you need to move to or from T4. This has always been the case.

    Anyone been checked out early from hotel room/belongings removed from room?

    Yes, same for me - unless the hotel is fully booked for arrivals on the day of checkout, in which case they may not be able to guarantee - THEN they may say to check again on the day of departure.

    Article: Why I Started Collecting Frequent Flyer Points

    Mid-90s got me started - initially with a Qantas return trip from Perth to Harare and back in early '95, but then I took a lot of regional flights with Ansett (and Skywest in WA), so primarily racked up AFF points from there. Took out a Golden Wing membership the same year and kept it going...

    Short turnarounds: Have you flown back from your destination with the same crew?

    As part of my job role, I join a regional charter every Friday morning (one of the local Myanmar domestic carriers ATR72-600s) to a northern coastal town with normal airline crew, catering, and I even get frequent flyer miles (much to my delight) I land at this airport, get off, go through an...
