Uber is legal in Syd and UberX still is blocked from picking up at the airport. The BP at MEL is just outside of the geofence I think? I know people on UberPeople.net report that they sometimes sit there waiting for people to request, call with their actual location and go and collect them.

As someone who has driven public buses (not for TransDev) the old saying goes, "there are a 1001 reasons for running late, there are no excuses for running early". Meaning it was perfectly acceptable to stop for a coffee and be 5 minutes late, but if you were reported as running more than 90...

As someone who doesn't drink beer or wine, this was always a deal breaker when considering VA lounge membership. For the first 4 & 1/2 pages, I was reconsidering.. Guess I'll wait for the outcome of the trial

Update This voucher has been sent (and redeemed?) to Denisiel.

I am 1000 points away from next status upgrade with Mileage plus, I am still waiting for some bonus points from making hotel bookings through the airlines, but I wonder if anyone knows how you can earn points in Aus? Their partner credit card is the Chase C.C., but that isn't available to AU...

The photography in this post if fairly accurate. If you have been in the Qantas lounge at MEL and then you visit the UA lounge, it definitely feels like you have walked down to the basement and they have found a spare closet to put a lounge in. Although I went (and regrettably paid) to the UA...
