    Airports absurdly close to the city

    Shame even that Reddit post isn't high quality. While not a big city GIB has to be up there, even if to the northern edge

    Western Sydney Airport (WSI) Discussion

    10M pa is not a small terminal by Aus standards. There is a massive amount of land and a multi-stage plan that takes the airport to 80M pax and two runways, but suspect few of us will see it. On the story you've got to consider the overall plan for both airports. SYD is not aimed to be closed...

    Western Sydney Airport (WSI) Discussion

    It's still a small secondary airport, and there are some real costs in opening a second operation. Suspect some will be surprised at how quiet WSI starts.

    That's a scaleback guaranteed to cause a pop. I'd be waiting a few weeks if you want more.

    Jetstar Asia to shutdown on 31 July 2025

    As per above, 6 in 20yrs of profit, is likely not making any return on capital. Suspect that over the year Qantas had some largish loans into the entity so as not to have capital calls, and this might be as much Westbrook Investments not be willing to fund further investments as Qantas .

    And a fly through video (threads link) I think showing Domestic check-in and bag drop, and security. Sign for Premium Lounges (note plural mid-way). https://www.threads.com/@one_shotfpv/post/DKwEdkdtLbu?xmt=AQF0pz8iR_95_5gyGeWJP052mqQLXRsMFB8_1jyf6TfrMA

    LAX Metro now open.

    For the C line which heads East and connects to the A or J/Silver Busline.. not much, just one station up the line. But also gives you the option of the newish K line which heads North and connects to the E/Expo and good connections to Santa Monica as well as central LA.

    Albanese to cut ribbon today. Lots of interior pics in this article. https://www.news.com.au/national/nsw-act/news/first-pictures-reveal-stunning-western-sydney-international-airport/news-story/dddbb99668d1345a3a4a4d5277131df0?amp

    Fraud on Velocity Frequent Flyer accounts

    I suspect 99% of members never do any transfers. So suspect multiple transfers to different people would almost always raise red flags

    Qantas Changes Acknowledgement of Country arrival Announcement

    Did I say it wasn't? The airport sits within generally accepted Gadigal lands, but this is both much larger than the City of Sydney and smaller than what we refer to as Sydney today. Greater Sydney is currently made up of 33 LGAs including a number of cities (or more if you took the Covid...

    Qantas Changes Acknowledgement of Country arrival Announcement

    Gadigal for example isn't all of Sydney, but it is where the airport is situated (and the name of a new CBD Metro station). WSI would be referred to as Dharug lands I suspect, which is a similar language group clan, but other parts of Sydney such as the north would be Guringai/Kuringgai, which...

    Agreed it will pop a bit on listing. Been priced lower than its key comp (Qantas) for a reason. That said is this forums article on the FF changes are interesting. Much Like BA, is VA at risk of killing it's golden egg.

    Virgin Australia IPO Discussion

    Not above 10% though. A US offering (where there is actually a bit more meaningful risk on the underwrite) might be 7% but Aus offerings are much lower. I suspect an additional fee to Bain and probably also management is wrapped up in that.

    LAX Metro now open.

    That's the LAX Metro Transit Centre station on the C/K lines. Still a bus connection to LAX, just slightly closer. People Mover won't open until sometime in 2026 on latest estimate, which will have three stops at the airport, and this station and the car hire centre.
