I'm not sure if it applies to you or not but Cheap Tickets for College Students and Faculty: Airfare, Rail and Hostel Deals has a whole range of flights available including one ways accross the atlantic at reasonable prices. eg. $USD238 with Air India and $258 with Virgin Atlantic. You do need...

I would avoid the airport if possible unless it's $50 to get you around until an ATM can be found. The big banks in the city do offer much better rates than the airport but usually charge a minimum $8-10 commission (sometimes waived if you're a customer- not CBA though) so it depends how much...

1. You could MR around Asia if you can squeeze it in rather than look at FCO. Perhaps LHR-SIN-NRT-HKG-SIN but it would make it a really really long trip home from HPN. :shock: 2. With a short connection time like 2:50 and to accomodate for delays etc, I would recommend just having the bags...

Oh, thanks KPC! I broke one and have three bags so that'll work really well. :p

:mrgreen: What's the cost of new/replacement tags anyway? Do you just pay by Credit Card over the phone?

Agreed. So I guess it starts with all those WP's in the Exit Rows. :mrgreen: Like others, I recline in non-meal times on long haul flights. It's very rare for me to recline on short haul but I don't reall mind if someone else does.

I tried 5 or 6 times on Tuesday night with no luck but tried again on Wednesday night with no problems. But yes, it's worse than the Jetstar website. It always took me right up until confirmation and then threw back errors. :rolleyes: Funny cookies are mentioned. I noticed I lost some of...

Nothing can really prepare you for the sight of Ground Zero and even after six years, I was still amazed to see the amount of destruction that had been caused now I could see what had actually happened. Part of the site has been rebuilt including the corner building which is now home (I believe)...

Over the next week, we did an incredible amount of walking. I found it was the best way to soak up the exciting atmosphere of New York and to see so many things we’d miss by catching the subway. On Day 2 over a muesli and yoghurt breakfast, we decided we would visit Lower Manhattan and Ground...

We made it back to the hostel about 1am and met our Brazilian room mate who was on his way to Aspen to work for the ski season. We chatted for half an hour as he practised his English before I decided to call it a night, or the end of a couple of days of interrupted sleep. I slept soundly and...

I can see why you love the it QF009. Great shopping, amazing city...... I have a feeling you'd like/have liked the model in the entrance to the Abercombie & Fitch store as well. ;) :p More coming, just letting it age. I'm sitting here with a bucket of icecream and a bottle of Red so the next...

You're in luck tcsharke. QF81 is operated by a 333/332 so you will have a Skybed and AVOD throughout the aircraft. All 333's and the one 332 QF have at the moment (soon 2) have Skybed Mach 1's.

:p You literally walk out of Qantas arrivals and through some doors and take the escalators back up to International departures. The trip would be no more than 150m to transfer to DOM->INT. If you are arriving Internationally, then you come out on the ground floor,(where the baggage storage...

And only 22,500 points + 150 GBP in Business Class. I'm thinking Tahiti on NZ sounds like a good deal with Bus Premier accross the ditch. And BMI has a very generous hotel points system. 1,000 points per stay seems pretty good if you do a few 1 night trips here and there. Wouldn't be too...

Hi leny. Luggage storage at MEL is available through Smartcarte. It's located in the International Arrivals area of the terminal. Prices are $10 for Hand Luggage, $14 for Suitcases and $20 for bulky items. Here's a link. Smarte Carte Welcomes You And the MEL airport website: Melbourne...

Re: QF Getting back to Platinum Challenge You could take it to New York I guess though the fare basis is HNL-BWI so you'd have to purchase the segments separately after BWI. (but BWI-JFK is just a quick little jump in a Regional Jet which is all economy so defeats the purpose really) I'm...

Yeah, just checked May. $15,200 for J on a direct flight. (almost $1000 an hour) I don't think many pay that. ;) I'll second the DAS13 then as a quick way to retain your QF Gold status.

Did you try upper class with restrictions though? I'm suprised it's that high for full fare though, a little bit on the expensive side.

With respect to Accounting, I couldn't agree more with Simon. From a Big 4 perspective, the junior staff (ie. below Manager) are the ones who travel week in week out on clients and the managers might come in for a couple of days max. Above manager, it's very rare to see anyone come to site for...
