    Fiji nightmare

    That's my understanding of it, PCR seems to be 'backwards compatible' whereas RAT is not, due to other countries requirements. 1642566742 Good point didn't think of that whilst I was there!

    Fiji nightmare

    It is covered here: https://www.fiji.travel/faq#transit-through-fiji The gist I got from this is that it's advisable to get a PCR rather than a RAT (which is required for US entry) in case you need to have a forced stopover in Fiji. Might save you headache if flight delays/cancellations happen...

    $500 AUD is still quite a bit that could have paid for our drinks and food bill :D

    Fiji nightmare

    We did an impromptu family trip to the Coral Coast in Fiji (with 2 kids) during the new years period, and had a great time, the resort testing RAT and PCR was all very smooth, and we departed without issue. Though the cost of the PCR was a bit off-putting, though still worth it to go on our...

    Qantas to Norfolk Island

    They were a bit overboard with the 'exposure sites' listing a whole outdoor beach as an exposure site for example. Feels like Melbourne in 2020/21 again. I guess this is their first outbreak, so maybe they will improve their approach over time.

    Where to get a pre-flight COVID-19 test?

    Has anyone used the histopath at the airport express RT-PCR for a domestic flight? Their application form seems to be catered to international flights?

    JQ 787 domestic business seats?

    Confirmed :( they class all extra legroom seats as exit rows even when some are not.

    JQ 787 domestic business seats?

    I am actually on a Max bundle so theoretically should be able to pick any seat for free. My suspicions are that I am travelling with an infant so not allowing me to select....

    JQ 787 domestic business seats?

    Hi all! Have an upcoming JQ 787 domestic flight MEL-SYD, the J seats are not selectable (or saleable) on this flight. Is there a way I can select the business seats either before hand or at the airport or do they just fly with them empty? Thanks! 😉
