And it’s one thing that can’t be changed. QF can issue fresh FF numbers. After the Optus hack, SNSW gave out new Drivers Licence ID’s to affected persons, making the stolen data much less useful to bad actors. But a DOB can never be changed. If an organisation leaks that, they should be...

But do you boil your knickers in them?

People boil their soiled underwear in them. They’ve also been known to cook raw chicken in them. https://au.news.yahoo.com/gross-travel-hack-hotel-guests-wash-underwear-in-boiling-kettle-36865532.html https://www.mirror.co.uk/travel/uk-ireland/man-called-unhinged-using-hotel-28663552.amp

Largely agree with what youre saying. There is a middle ground here. People sometimes seem to think the only alternative to HLO is travelling like Imelda Marcos with 10 suitcases and 500 pairs of shoes. HLO works for some trips, but it's definitely not a one size fits all solution. For...

Never, ever use a hotel room kettle.

Bags do take a lot of punishment. Best considered as a consumable that lasts about 5 years Any more than that is a bonus.

I wouldn't be comfortable with that connection. Ring up and ask for the night before.

And keep a photo of your passport too. Save it under Favourites.

Don’t book layovers less than 2hr. 3 if it’s Heathrow.

I dont think PE will be possible at that time of year within that budget. So, then it's a matter of finding a "good" economy offering. A previous poster mentioned Emirates A380 and I'd back that suggestion. Decent spacious cabin, quiet aircraft, good air quality Emirates is a very good...

I thought that was how it was supposed to work? Basically classic plus is offered when regular award seats are sold out. Is that the model?

Can you rephrase the question?

welcome A question - how long is the layover in SYD on his current ticket? And how long would it be for the earlier flight he is wanting to switch to?

Sydney airport is 3 stops (10mins) from central station. About 5km as the crow flies. Very close for a city of 5m

Ok so they have some capacity if they need to deadhead some crew

Thanks for your first hand info. How full would you say the plane was?

The above discussion was referring to the suitability of Pakistan Note GYD is Azerbaijan rather than Georgia. It's yellow, but so is france. I wouldn't have concerns. In saying that, I would have no concerns about Georgia either though.

Clearly I'm not suggesting the pilots would be performing detailed country risk assessments on the fly. That's for the bureaucrats. Diversion airfields and countries will be categorised in advance by the airline and the relevant authorities. This will be based on detailed assessments of the...

It's the overall safety of the country. Reckon a western airline would divert to DRC, Yemen, Afghanistan or Somalia for a single medical incident if that was the nearest airfield? I doubt they would, unless it was a 10/10th's emergency like a fire, engines out, etc. This reads like victim...
