    Cruise retailer in Australia

    Thank you. Ended up with the best price and deals with Flight Centre. Only reason I went with them was a family member became our consultant. She wouldn't dare muck-up this booking or try and charge outrageous fees. Best price $$$ wise and two beverage packages and $200 land credit per cabin, x...

    Pre-existing conditions & discounts

    A little while ago I started investigating insurance for a trip in 12 months. I think it was with TID but might be wrong... When I entered that a policy holder would be including a preexisting condition, it took me to a different website/insurer. Does anyone know if a discount code from the...

    QF1078 tonight

    Flights FROM asia to BNE that are not overnight

    Yes, I can understand your reasoning. I once did the CX midnight flight BNE- HKG. Was a shocker flight for rest and then a shocker of a day in the Plaza Lounge recovering prior to the connection to KTM. Coming back overnighted in HK and flew CX arriving back in BNE about 11pm. A much better trip...

    travel insurance with pre-existing condition

    I don't think this is a thread hijack...I am just thinking ahead to a trip in December 2015. Obviously airfares aren't booked yet. When you declare a pre-existing condition and the premium rises astronomically, are you then covered for claims arising from that pre-existing condition?
