Another SQ non-change just came through. Still better than QF.

Nineteen Kitchen zi char on Queen St. Chili crab, prawn paste chicken, cereal prawns, kang kong belachan, etc. Yum.

Short answer: it depends. Eg, SQ 777 in economy is really good at 3-3-3 (one of the best Y experiences going around), but QR really bad at 3-4-3 and very thin seats. JL 787 econ great (the best Y?), all other 787s not so good. A330s great in econ (particularly if a couple) except for LCCs like...

Just checked and, yes, same for me. I suppose this fixes the slightly confusing way they previously stated it in the situation where someone has plenty of non VA credits but not many VA credits, which was "you have 11,500 credits, so you only need 500 more of which at least 4000 more need to be...

Over on the Qantas pages, there is thread after thread of 24/36/48 hour delays and arguments over compensation, hours wasted calling agents, etc. Meanwhile, here at SQ, I receive the following email:

Never knew this existed, thanks for posting this, might try it in the future with a long layover, easily do-able for a five hour layover. According to google maps, there is a zi char next door, so a few drinks at the seaside lounge, a swim, then a local meal at the zi char would be wonderful...

In northern Brittany, Dinan of course, but also Cancale for oysters on the waterfront is great, and St Malo. In the south, Rochefort en Terre and Josselin are both amazing. And we really liked Vannes. In this area, we can highly recommend Chateau de Craon for a couple of nights. And of...

Beef tenderloin (eye fillet) as airline food is always hit and miss I think. It is very lean so can be very dry and lacking in flavour, and easy to overcook, as re-heated plane food. Avoid.

Isn't this the group that tried to ban Australia Day at its venues?

Kombini recommendations: egg sandwich from 7-11, famichick fried chicken from Family Mart.

I'm going to have to disagree. We are none of the things you list above, but we are about 60 and travel HLO and find it very liberating and convenient. We are in and out of trains, buses, taxis, metros (as well as planes), and walking around cobbled streets to find our hotel in an old town...

I don't use a wallet when travelling. Just some cash and a 28 degrees credit card, in a zipped pocket.

1. Hand luggage only. 2. Eat the local food of the airline (eg, Asian airline, always choose the Asian meal, not the western meal). 3. Never arrive into SYDint before 9:00am.

Population of Geelong: less than 300,000 Population of W.Sydney: 3,000,000

Fabulous.

Was it any good though?

I had problems with some petrol bowsers in France - unattended, pay at the bowser arrangements. It was okay when you went into the shop for your baguette and to pay.

LOL, not many sheep stations there either!

I use the doona as a mattress topper and ask for an economy blanket. More padding, and the econ blanket is thinner and cooler anyway.

Chicken breast is invariably awful as airline food. You must have had a bit of a sinking feeling reading the menu for the "refreshment" on the final flight - good old "carrot cake" and weird oatmeal porridge again!
