Thought I'd just cover this one briefly. My kids are 8, 10 and 12. Spend their entire flights either sleeping, eating or watching movies. I am a very strict parent (comes with age!) and I don't tolerate them misbehaving - and thankfully they never have. They are also instructed to, and do, say...

Close but it's not the same song. I got the same result with Shazam unfortunately - thank you for trying.

Odd request, this time from my wife. Can anybody identify the piece of music used as the theme from ABC's The Drum? Big brownie points for me if I can find it. Regards, Peter

The mention of the VW factory reminded me of Stuttgart. The porsche museum is excellent and they also do drive days. Mercedes also have a museum in town. Worth a visit if you are a petrol head.

Sadly, so will the kids - but I've told them they've had their last J experience. They need to earn their keep now.

I only get really concerned when they go near the doors. In this guy's state he wouldn't have been able to do much to me (and I'm a skinny IT accountant!), more worried about the kids. Anyway, it's over and no one got hurt including him. Other than that it was a wonderful trip. If I can get over...

Hadn't thought of it like that - thank you for the perspective. Having said that - the kids was perfectly normal once on the ground in SYD, still, could have been crook, poor little bugger - I did feel sorry for him. Oh, and for my wife.......*snicker*.

Do what a mate of mine did - he made the house clothing optional. Took them a month - slow learners obviously.

Not sure what QF's release schedules are, but we had a number of options open to us on SQ from Europe on exactly those dates this year. And that was for 5 pax in J. Return flight was only booked about 3 months prior.

Yep. But the boys did the cuffing. Was a good job too - no way he was getting out of them from what I could see. Hope there was a bit of chafing......

Pays to be able to laugh about it (I always try to remind myself how privileged I am to be flying up front - or least on top in this case).

Travelling back to Sydney from SIN in J on SQ231 last Friday morning with the 3 kids and wife. As the aircraft taxis a guy in the front of our section of the cabin (we were in rows 24/25) gets out of his seat and is told firmly to sit down. Does so, but then gets up as the a/c rotates (!) and...

I had hoped I had said ferry.................and it is a pretty memorable experience (enhanced for me, by my eldest son getting sea-sick and having to accompany him to the outside deck in -2 degree weather. Brrrrrr! Apparently it's true - you can freeze them off.)

We just spent Christmas in Frankfurt and found it a relatively cheap place to stay compared to the rest of western Europe. We stayed in the Victoria Hotel near the main station (Hauptbahnhof) after coming by train from Copenhagen (great journey where the train goes on a ferry - lots of fun for...

That because those of us in that age bracket are still amazed we can do it without wires, and some of us think you have to talk loudly because the other person is so far away.

Contents different on ours, but received them on December 20/21 SYD-SIN and SIN-CPH

Over the past month I've been in the SQ J lounges in Sydney, SIN, Paris (CDG) and then SIN again. I travelled with my wife and 3 kids, aged 12, 10 and 8. We always try to ensure we minimise the impact of our small army on other guests, but no doubt some folks didn't appreciate us being in there...

The 2 substituted items from the 2nd kit we received. Regards, Peter

Hi again, I've attached the first of the kits we got on 232 out of Sydney (I may have these the wrong way around. Mrs Diver is a keen and committed "re-packer"). I offered feedback to SQ that it was nice to see them innovating with different types of things in the amenities kits. We found the...

Hi Folks, Just got back form a Europe jaunt with the family in SQ J. SQ flights were sadly not the greatest I've ever experienced. New A380 J seats are pretty impractical - multiple false calls to attendants. But, to my questions. Flew on SQ335 out of Paris (10:50am departure) Then SQ231 out of...
