With Tom Bradley making the list, I am surprised KL LCC isn't there.

So, how did the consumer lose out? From my quick read of the situation, Flight Centre put pressure on the airlines to guarantee them equal or better than what the airline had on sale. In other words, wanting to match the online price that could be found at Emirates website. I think that is...

Which presupposes that Captain Zaharie is a devout Muslim. I read he is an atheist.

Or North West Australia! Thinking of somewhere that might be corruptible and have weak radar and fits with the North West heading after crossing Malaysia into the Melacca Strait, Burma springs to mind. They also value gold very highly.

Other problem from Broadmeadows = Large bridge required to cross the valley at massive expense. From Essendon crosses no valleys.

I tend to look at Singapore as a great example of how public transport can work. Yet Singapore, with it's wonderful airport, does not have a direct train to the CBD. After catching a train from the CBD to Tanah Merah, you need to change to a smaller shuttle train to the Airport. In a similar...

Skybus are an independent bus company based at Tullamarine. Driver Buslines is in Glen Iris area. I have never heard of any link before. Where did you get the info from?

The Kogan luggage sets are reduced again today, selling at $149 for the fancy set and $99 for the basic set. I have no idea how long for.

My family and I are going to Penang and Abu Dhabi for 10 days total at Easter. See the international fares thread for how we are doing it for $700 each.

I have booked this for April school holidays. Fantastic deal. Penang seems to be the best gateway, as well as a good stopover point. I got Melbourne to Penang with Air Asia for A$305 all up, was cheaper than MEL - KUL! Then I got Malaysian from Penang to KUL followed by EY 411 operated by VA...

I did that once when in London in the late eighties. Got a free flight to New York carrying a satchel full of waybills. The cargo was on the plane. I handed in the satchel at the desk in New York (DHL or similar). They also got me a $50 or so flight from Boston back to London for a week...

Viva Macau's website is announcing that Melbourne - Macau flights start on December 9. Fares appear to be A$245 plus A$100 or so taxes each way. They are currently available right through the holidays. Seems to be the cheapest way to Hong Kong for the Christmas holidays.
