There's @FlyingKangaroo 's bread 🙂 So they only have them on long services....

So they charge you for something that the other surgery needs but they can hold onto just to make some more money. Yes I get someone has to be paid for the time to collect those records and do the sending. It probably costs $30 to do so, but wow. Next, they'll charge you $30 to pass on and add...

Why would they take it away if Master TC was there? If your personal belongings also went, did you get them back easily?

The Facebook post by The Guardian had an interesting set of headline pictures: Now there's a few ways to look at this. First of all, the three carriers they mention are all LCCs but, more specifically, have Y only cabins. There's no restriction if anyone on those airlines wants to use the...

VA almost always seems to have an option to add meat to the vego dish, e.g. a cheese tortellini but with optional chicken that can be added. Can't remember the last time someone said there was a cheese plate offered on VA J in the relevant thread, especially because VA throw in the cursory...

Not my flight, but I saw this on Facebook, and it's the J meal for a SIN/KUL flight. This isn't a dig - SIN/KUL is incredibly short, similar to SYD/CBR, except operated with a widebody with many more passengers- just wanted to share it here out of interest. I think I heard previously it's been...

Bak chor mee normally has a sauce that is based on, amongst possibly other things, fish sauce and/or shrimp paste. So that might explain the fishy smell. How hard is hard? Many noodles (not all) should be served al dente, just like most good pasta, and bak chor mee noodles aren't an exception...

WCMO... "As you take your seat, please place your larger bag in the overhead bin and then turn it around to occupy less space." We're on an aircraft where the largest regulation carry on, which most have, doesn't fit in the locker with the short side facing out (it can go in, but the locker...

QF1967 BNE-NTL dep 1855 op Alliance a/c E90 Some interesting bits and pieces to start this flight (aside from the comical lounge announcements - see Member Chit Chat posts around this date). First, we got a bus gate (aka when priority boarding often dissolves as a benefit) to quite a far...

A hoodied man bursts into a store and points a branch at the clerk. "Alright! This is a stick up!"

If they went down the "safety" route, then I'd reckon it could (also) be: (a) a warped form of what we know as RSA in Australia, realistic or not; and/or (b) limiting your consumption to save money per passenger (e.g. some Priority Pass lounges limit consumption - or "complimentary consumption"...

Seems weird to do so, especially when there are no prices (assuming you're not ordering from a cash bar). Guess it's still $1 per drink? Still, that's no reason to be refused service. Maybe cold service, slow service or preferred last in a crowd service (which ironically reduces the chance of a...

QF1962 NTL-BNE dep 0600 op Alliance a/c E90 Same breakfast options as before, so I go for the frittata this time over the scrambled eggs. The frittata incorporates capsicum within it, with garnishes of tomato, sausages and creamed spinach. Served again with a warmed raspberry and coconut muffin...

QF1965 BNE-NTL dep 1400 op Alliance a/c E90 Managed to score an earlier flight, and perhaps in the process sidestepped a roast meal! Spinach and feta pie (or slice of pie), serve with ratatouille. Same as @DrJ 's meal the other day, except no rocket or other sides, just a Lindt ball. A very...

How does it work? Do you need to keep power on the aircraft all night to keep the fridges on? A subtle advantage for the E90s as opposed to the more workhorse mainline 737s. Anyone aware if the Airbuses replacing the 737s also have cold storage?

Should have mentioned: an extra minus 10 points to those idiots who throw used spoons or stirrers back into the containers or holders that have the clean ones.

The chairs thing is very common, not just for surveying the buffet, but when they leave. Worse are the ones sitting behind you that push the chair out with full force... whack! Surprised you didn't see a few pyjamas around the place, but maybe hotels do insist on some sorts of standards in the...

QF1962 NTL-BNE dep 0600 op Alliance a/c E90 Breakfast choices - both hot. Scrambled eggs with spinach, beans and bacon; or Frittata with tomato and sausage. Both served with a raspberry and coconut muffin (warmed) and a packet of dried fruit (featuring upcycled fruit). Tea and coffee available...

Thought CX used to run a service to DFW already. I know AA has DFW/HKG. That's a rather interesting route for RJ. Trying to imagine a flight between DFW and AMM.
