    Unspoken Rule of Air Travel

    Mint Asure sounds interesing. It'd be a handy product to have for any long flights. Are there any Australian importers/retailers of Mint Asure? These are the classic cardboard box style Jilla Mints. They also do the mints in a sugar free version in a small tin, pics here - peppermint and...

    A little knowledge can be a dangerous thing.....

    It really depends on how the airline, LCC or not, arranges the information in the printed itinerary. In a DJ itinerary, in the section headed "TRAVEL PLAN WITH VIRGIN BLUE" they have the information for the flight legs, departure, and arrival in clearly separate columns, and below those...

    Election 2010 August 21

    All three are persons I'd not vote for willingly. Gillard is the stooge of the unions and the mining corporations. Abbott is firmly in the pray pocket of the religious right. And my local member is our spineless Treasurer; Wayne Swan; who does not have the balls to bring the banks to heel...

    JetStar is trying to ruin my holiday! Is there anything I can do?

    This is the part that I don't get. Jetstar won't let the OP use the original flight as booked as there is not enough time between connecting flights, yet they have put the OP on a later flight leaving the OP with LESS time between connecting flights. Jenifur Charne

    Why did you choose your avatar / what does it mean to you?

    Mine is a clip from a character pic I had done for me on a now defunct furry IRC network, pasted on a radial gradient background. The original of the character pic was the second one done for me by a Perth, Western Australia, based furry artist, TeenTiger. Full size of the source pic here -...

    Biggest Airport Rip-Offs?

    Looking at the location in Google Earth, I could find the place easilly enough. http://img340.imageshack.us/img340/8442/gesydmcdsjoycedrv.jpg Though the Street View pics are out of date somewhat, showing a Krispy Kreme where the McD's is. The McDs looks to be next door to a Formule1 motel...

    MEL Train derailed by buck-passing and vested interests

    That third option is called Airtrain here in Brisbane. A private operator set up a private rail link as a spur line starting between Eagle Junction and Toombul; to BNE, and managed to con the Qld government into letting that private mob use its own fare structure on the private rail link and...

    Can anybody tell me how they get away with it.

    Straitman, firstly working from memory, there was a report in the Murdoch press in summer 2007/2008, about fares MEL-LAX being at the time near on $1000 dearer for AU on the same airline and same class than LAX-MEL, as for airline in the report, Qantas, I think. As far as I can recall, the...

    Can anybody tell me how they get away with it.

    How many Australian know of the difference in the prices? It's that lack of knowledge that lets manufacturers and retailers as well as the airlines get away with this behaviour. If no-one knows about the rort, then no-one complains to the ACCC about the behaviour. Without any complaints about...

    [Breakfast/Lunch] Menus change in [Qantas] DOM J lounges

    Since this thread is about a QANTAS lounge, then maybe this thread more properly belongs in either the QFF section of AFF, or in the Travel Insider Tips/Airport Lounges section. Jenifur Charne
