    Why is Domestic J so damned expensive????

    Supply/Demand and what companies are willing to pay. My company pays for me to fly between Sydnay and Perth in J and I'm glad it's expensive, means I can get the flight that I want.

    yes it was a Skyserv lounge and was partnered with a list of airlines as long as my arm. Right next door to the BA and swiss one. The lounge was pretty empty and it had free wifi :)

    Which Athens Airport Lounge?

    So... what car do you guys drive when not flying?

    I looked at the RS4 but the maths didnt add up. Full spec'd S4 and $10k on the engine gave me the equiv of an RS4 without the wide arches and v8 noise for a whole lot cheaper.

    Qantas Vouchers - to hard to use

    I found using vouchers through the call centre (platinum desk) to be pretty easy. It took a little longer but 10pts/$ made it worth it.

    Withdrawing euros in London/LHR - banking crisis in Greece

    Current Qantas First Lounge Menu (SYD/MEL) and relevant topics

    I've got a 6am flight tomorrow. I'll be happy with any menu as long as they can get me a bacon & egg sandwich before boarding.. Would be a shame to have to go to mcDonalds for my breakfast....
