Re: Virgin incident over Perth Gee Rok, if you werent from Perth, I would be insulted. Look, we have 24 hour electricity now, well most suburbs do and we may even get Sunday trading before the next millenium and who knows, we may even get an airport that can handle all the extra planes that...

Wow. Many pilots say that landing at Perth airport is one of the more difficult assignments when weather conditions are good. This must have been a nightmare for the passengers. I would have been cradled up to a bottle of bourbon or tequila. Lucky it wasn't Qantas involved, there would have been...

Actually, I did put in a little emoticon and it showed in my preview but not in the final post. Once again Qantas are at the core of our problems.

Gee another to blinded by all the memberships listed on their profile to see a tongue in cheek comment. I am an unashamed big Q lover and rally against many of the "lets blame Qantas for the Japan Tsunami" types on AFF

Aaah, tongue in cheek there Mr "I have an ipad like 14 million other" Einstein. If you engage the brain before the powerful fingers on the keyboard, I am a defender of Qantas and hate how many on AFF blame the big Q from their first STD all the way to their daughter getting pregnant at age 13.

Yes, I know it is a Daily Mail article but in light of recent crack reports, computer issues and motors blowing up, it is another article concerning what should have been the new Jumbos of the modern century. Airbus A380: World's biggest planes are not sky-worthy, say engineers | Mail Online...

I am not sure which Novotel you have booked in but if it is the Kowloon side then I have stayed there many times and you will find the people very friendly and willing to look at helping you out as they have done for me on a few occasions. Forget dealing over the hotline, they are merely a...

Couldnt possibly be a union member as Unions would never condone this sort of incident to make their point. Unheard of!!

That is sensational news - Unions looking after their employees. I worked for the same company for 28 years and was third in the state pecking order with the only way to go up was the two above me to retire or die. I couldnt move interstate as I have a sick parent that I look after'. No...

Why not ask one or all of the three union leaders who are the "victims" of this dispute. I am sure they will have a good idea and would be only too willing to help

Without being a panic merchant, they can fail and in the short term today. I had a bit to do with the banking structure of Ansett and saw how quickly they folded and Qantas could just as easily follow suit. I have spent 30 years in the Finance game looking after higher end corporate clients and...

I can see what the OP is getting out and I must say that I agree with a lot of it as you would have guessed from my previous history. There are far too many people who want want want and all for free or close to it. Ansett bent over backwards to accommodate so many of these "wanters"that in the...

So have I jehane but now that I am older, they were good for all the wrong reasons.......................

The people who never stop putting the boots in whilst singing the virtues of Virgin which is like comparing a 5 star hotel to a eastern european youth hostel
