Wasn't sure where to post this, however I found a fascinating video of PA's around the world across both poles flight for their 50th anniversary. Show some youngsters how people used to fly - the clothes, the service, the attitudes.

Onboard QF622 MEL-BNE now. Chicken foccacia toastie, we didn't try that. Beef pesto salad, a solid winner. Plenty of tender beef and a good solid serve of potatoes with some tomatoes and olives. Hilarious crew.

The toasted sandwich. Bread wasn't good.

Onboard QF621 BNE-MEL now. Chicken salad, very nice. Four cheese toasted sandwich with a side of bread ... oh my, no. No. It's terrible. (the toasted sandwich). However the service was very good.

If my memory serves me correctly, QF group got onto Impulse due to their lower cost base and used it as the seed for Jetstar. I wonder if VAII could do the same to Bonza and rebrand it? Crazy thought I know.

Wow, how did you get two pieces of bread?

I don't think Bonza would like sectors over two hours, they reduce the opportunity to charge for ancillaries per hour.

Yes indeed. I've always felt welcome with VA in J and they do seem to be empowered (or care enough) to make up what they can from what is available to eat in the aircraft. A few years ago there was an OOL-MEL that departed at 1740h, literally 20 minutes before it was an official dinner flight -...

Not every VA 737 has power outlets in J. Be very aware of that.

I wouldn't worry about the lounge, the airport is dead quiet during that time, unless you really want to ... enjoy refreshments :) Another supermarket fiend, welcome! Check out the following with regards to the buses: https://www.newcaledonia.travel/au/transport-services Isle of Pines is...

If you had the (edit - Android) app installed in the past, you need to uninstall it and download the latest version - it doesn't update. How hard could it have been for them to allow bookings on a website? Then again, I suspect they don't want scrapers checking their inventory. Or they're just...

True, but they'll want to soft-launch operations to get everything bedded down, etc. Better to SNAFU 20 people with a clue than 188 people who think they own the airline as they paid $99 to go somewhere.

They're still hiring - Bonza Careers

Singapore isn't a good country in which to become a criminal.

As a passenger, that'd be a gamble thanks to the quality of traffic flow on the Bruce Highway.

Their vernacular does my head in. It's all so cringey. I wonder if they'll all be calling each other "legends" internally during their first SNAFU.

Thanks. I should probably edit some of my writing for clarity. Anyhow, there's much more than just the city and Anse Vata. Once you drive out of the CBD, the driving is very easy and can be fast. You can self-cater very well even only with basic cutlery and a fridge. I am now hungry just...

So we arrived back to Brisbane, which was quite busy and had a laugh with Border Force over all our foodstuffs in the suitcase. By declaring it all they were fine and no issues at all. Would we return? Yes, we've already booked tickets for July. And I have some restaurants to visit next time as...

So it's departure Saturday and QF want you at the airport at T-3 hours. Working backwards from this we visited out patisserie one more time, the hypermarket, back home for the bags then a picnic, finally arriving at the airport in plenty of time. The bus stop at the airport is next to the car...

The next day we felt like giving the little C3 a flogging and seeing the countryside, so we drove out to Fort Teremba. https://www.fort-teremba.com/le-fort It is a very early example of activities, and contains an informative museum about the early colonial shenanigans - you can learn...
