Ploughmans plate on the golden triangles pre 5.30pm has subtly changed. Latest version attached

Chicken was so much better today than last week. They coated in something so had a little bit of crispness and felt much better quality. Definitely not Sichuan spicy level. No chilli this week but I added some Sriracha sauce and condiments.

Had my first 321 experience today. I was on a later flight which got shafted but managed to move ahead to an earlier which meant a very rushed departure from the office but managed to keep my signature seat. This meant I got to witness the crew trying to figure out where everything was guided by...

Dang wish I checked if there was one booked from international With a SYD public holiday I’m on the QF 787 SYD-MEL since I don’t have to take the usual 5pm

Had the chicken salad above on a domestic service post 5.30pm today. Was really tasty with the other option being a beef ragu for those that wanted a full dinner replacement. The wine was a 2020 Catkin McLaren Vale Shiraz which was great and a real elevation from the recent reds. Great drop...

I got one on a last minute personal BNE-SYD as a P1 a couple of weeks ago. This seemed at the discretion of the lounge team and much appreciated. Most of my flying is in the top cabin so nice to see we get looked after when having to book down the back.

You can make work trips fit in. I don’t have an immediate family myself so willing to travel anywhere anytime. I think there’s a huge trend where people don’t want to travel. Seems like that’s starting to trickle through to domestic loads too. A little off topic but I just love to travel for...

Team in syd and Mel were asking for my thoughts on the rebrand. Staff were saying they just look for the emerald logo in the app at the lounge but this will help a lot. Was in 1F on the 220 tonight and could see the CSM on his iPad but didn’t get a glimpse of how we appear in terms of colour codes.

Travel for work and I love it. Even though you don’t get to deeply explore somewhere you get great memories and get to find where you want to spend more time. That helps support the personal trips where I want to broaden my horizons and see what else is out there. Life is short and I want to...

You get used to it after a while…just like anything else in life

Perfect, thanks for the update. Seems like I’ve been relying on inaccurate info

Good to know, I’ve proactively avoided them including a mel bne next week so should give them a go I’ve always justified an earlier or later as need wifi. The A220s still don’t have wifi right?

I was actually disappointed with QR lounge 2 weeks ago. Used to be through a bit and their coughtail list is greatly reduced as is their food offering. It’s still worth a visit if you enjoy western dining but does feel there’s been some cost cutting. I used to advocate for people to make a trip...

In the AMS office enjoying a morning coffee. SQ at least have arranged a small area down the back of the Aspire lounge just for them which is perfectly adequate. From some prior days, I can 100% recommend not arriving at Mallorca airport any earlier than needed. I was flying BA and the...

Couple of tough beach days on the East coast of Mallorca

Office view the last couple of days and a clear reminder of why I value QF points Unbelievable EK flights from check-in, lounge, transit and onboard service. Note to self to break up Aus-Europe as you just can’t enjoy that second leg as much as you want to. <redacted>

A very happy P1 of late. I havent been online lately as quite busy with work In the last week: 1. P1 invite to Katy Perry which was fantastic. Katy put on a great show and appreciate the invite. 2. Looked after well in a rare domestic flight down the back. Got some sparkling wine discretely...

I’m not sure if it is or it isn’t but I enjoy the Syrah. Would happily be invited back. If I want top tier wine I’ll visit certain places but I think we can all form reasonable expectations based on the shared experiences here.

Just had an enjoyable SYD CL visit. Seems to just be a one off as have three flights this week. Also had really great crew ex HNL recently with a reserved sign at the lounge which came in handy as I arrived fairly late and that lounge fills up.

Just through Syd domestic and they are promoting the QF EK partnership on the big screen above security so would be a little disingenuous if they remove this benefit.
