Or JQ43 via DPS. Or the next available JQ 7. Our experience in the last couple of years is extreme reluctance to put you onto QF. Noticed tomorrow's JQ 7/8 have been cancelled.

When walking back from toilets to seat, I’d estimate that at least 2/3 of passengers are using the IFE during flights in daylight hours. Overnight, probably drops to 1/3 or so. Although perhaps less on carriers with meagre content. I don’t own nor need a tablet and a phone screen is a...

Rex’s last reliable indicator of operating costs for running the airline was $300m (2019 annual report). If the government paid every cent of that - that’s the equivalent to servicing the debt on what a $7.5b infrastructure project? Or probably about half the cost of the Airport Link Rail to...

Tellingly, I've had more emails from RexFlyer this week than I did in the months of its operation.

Password format changes. Not sure if this has affected others, but no notification for us. Both of us had ! in the password and this is no longer allowed (you can't even submit to login if you've entered ! in the password field). Looks like ~ ` ^ { } [ ] are also problematic. So need to do...

You get the meter fare and for free you get a grumpy taxi driver and erratic driving because your fare wasn't worth their wait. Last two times we caught a taxi to my partners mother's place we got the complete guilt trip for only being a $40 fare.

Unless booked through a Travel Agent and the TA can do it, I don't think SQ can merge two PNR's together. However, if you're looking to through check bags, they can do it for you at checkin.

My theory is take advantage of it while you can. It feels like google searches back in the days before excessive commercialisation. Once they start to properly monetise it with paid promotions influencing the results, it will be more difficult to get useful relatively neutral advise from (or...

These days this is more common than not, whatever the alliance or lack of alliance between the two carriers. It’s largely driven by the policies of the first carrier, and not necessarily the technology . If you had been travelling from SQ to TP (or to QF for that matter which is obviously in...

Well, if they don't take cash, there should be at least one surcharge free form of payment.

The have really nailed the menu now, after the post Covid hiccups. Vastly superior to the SIN F lounge (not TPR) which is basically a glorified hawker stall which has a menu full of inexpensive hawker dishes and hasn't changed since it reopened in its current location in 2022. A variety of...

Yes 0800 Australian time. But that would be Western Australian time :p

A loyalty benefit ? 🤣 First time you stay, you pay. Repeat visits you realise you don't have to.

I don't mind the pantry concept - if prices are kept reasonable. But invariably they offer products at close to minibar prices - but surely must be cheaper to adminster (less labour to restock, less leakage). Especially annoying when your $10 credit for being an elite members buys you the...

I wonder if it also might appeal to those in the South East, come February. With the Metro tunnel opening comes through running of services from Sunbury to/from the Pakenham line, it might be easier and more convenient to change at Sunshine than to change trains at Caulfield, State Library or...

Well to pedantic it’s not a Mainland Chinese airline.

I'm starting to use a different DOB for new sign ups where DOB is not critical. Make myself a couple of years younger 🤣 For airlines, from memory, DOB does not form part of the ticket info.

Curiously that map is missing the skytrain between T1 & T2 which runs at three minute(IIRC) intervals, which can make it slightly quicker, particularly if you reach the train just before it departs. The walking times are "average" too, fast walkers can do it much quicker, I know I get from SQ...

Depends on where in T2! If it's E28 could be as little as 4-5 mins, which is closer than most of the D gates in T1. On the other hand if it's at the far end of T2, such as F37 or F60, you could be looking at 15 mins or longer depending on how quick you walk.

Maybe. Or it maybe the 25th or 26th. 🤣 :eek:
