A Melbourne Airport mistake is going in the multi storey car park and expecting to find a baggage trolley. They must have someone continually going round the car park and picking them up so they can put them in the pay for use machines at the terminal. It meant a 15min round trip to get a...

Classic Ship (But less than 1000 passengers) with shore excursions.

We did Antartica last year and next year are booked in with Viking in 2025 to do 29 days New York to Bergen via Greenland, Iceland and Svarlbad.

Always like to read it, and sometimes take it home. Don't fly as much now I am retired so no longer think it should be weekly. :)

Interesting that trying 'Clear Cache and Cookies' worked, but why was the site so sensitve? Using the Chrome browser, without blocking pop ups and no VPN.

The last three flights I have booked with Qantas have been through the App. I much prefer to book using the website,but each time I have tried the site refuses to show me any flights? The screen just goes black and then nothing happens First they cut the travel agents commission. . . then...

I agree but as the charity is Disaster Aid Australia there is probably a better than average chance of vacant seats as the disaster may mean a number of people cancelling their trips! 1706156256 Sorry.....done

Same PNR - One booking for both people. Minority View - I don't need to be next to the colleague. . . . but we are all volunteers so I prefer to avoid being considered elitist by travelling in a better class, while they are stuck in economy.

That did occur to me:) but I like being honest, even when it finisheds up with me being uncomfortable.

I don't have a problem with Qantas restricting points transfers to family members . . . but when it comes to upgrades for people travelling with me it seems ridiculus. My situation is I have Gold Status and plenty of points from personal travel, but a couple of times a year travel...

I haven't bought car company excess in over 20 years. I did have a small scratch about 8 years ago and the car rental guy who came to inspect the car couldn't believe I owned up to it before he had checked the car. I sent it to the credit card company who paid up! I also had a cracked screen...

We have just book a Eurorail 4 day pass for travel in May. Overall it does seem a bit cheaper especially if you are going to be using it for more days. One thing to be aware of if you are hoping to use some of the high speed trains is the cost of required reservations is extra and the costs...

Although the speed of the Shinkansen is impressive I think that the fact your vision is restricted by the noise barriers limits enjoyment of the scenery. A couple of train trips I have really enjoyed are: Nagano to Nagoya - A fast tilt train through the mountains with spectacular views. It was...

Not sure if it could be classed as a 'Resolution' . . . . but this Christmas I finally admitted to myself that trying to convince my wife to only travel HLO when we were away for more than a week. was not showing any sign of success. . . so one of her Christmas presents was a 'Tile' bag tracking...

Woolies don't seem to desperate to me as they keep sending me offers for something I have just bought. An example: I have a few blueberries on my morning cereal so only buy a packet of frozen blueberries every four or five weeks. The other week a bought 1kg and the next week I got a bonus offer...

Yes, if there is a choice I always chose the lane with the metal detector!

I've got a few different webbbing belts with plastic buckles. You can buy the webbing and the buckles at Bunnings. I still occasionally get asked to take the belt off (about 1 in every 10 flights)

Moderation in all things. . . including moderation. Often quoted to my wife when she raises an eyebrow after I have had several beers!

Only 14 Flights for me but added 5 (or is it 6?) new countries (and 1 Continent) Chile* Antartica* Falkland Islands (??)* Argentina* Uruguay* Timor Leste (Was really easy to get Classic Rewards return from Melbourne . . . Really enjoyed the visit but very basic tourist infrastructure) India *...

I usually travel with a SCOTTeVEST which has a host of zipped pockets, including an internal one for passports. It even has a pocket that fits a tablet, or in my case a chrome book.
