I know that's not correct. I was there a couple of times earlier this year, overnight, and the Wing F lounge was scheduled to close at 02:00 every night. When I was there it actually closed between 02:30 and 03:30 to cater for delayed flights. It then reopened at 05:00. However in the OP's...

I think they must have been referring to Ansett. Unfortunately it'll never happen.

As I've said before, I'm hugely unimpressed with the BNE J lounge (perhaps it's designed to cater for the good folk of Gympie and surrounding areas). Whenever I'm in BNE I'll go to the J lounge to see what's on offer, and usually, shortly afterwards, go to the Club lounge, which is always...

Good luck!

Unfortunately, they will run out of everything you want far sooner than you imagine. They may not even have loaded it in the first place. And I'm sure that you know how awful the chapagne is in the SYD F lounge beforehand. Maybe as an F flyer you might get something slightly better. But in any...

I'm overnighting in MEL in November (SYD-MEL-LST). As I arrive MEL around 3 pm, I'm planning to take the public bus to Broadmeadows Station and then the train to Spencer St, Takes longer but is a tad less expensive, and probably more "interesting". Never used my Myki card before, so I'll give it...

I'm not against a second Sydney airport, but just not where it's been plonked. Surely RAAF Richmond would have been a better place to start with. Oh, sorry, I forgot the noise issue.... Or failing that, just make Badgery's Creek a LCC, GA and freight airport. Oh wait, that's what it is.

An interesting snippet from Head for Points: UBS downgrades IAG shares, partly blames Avios changes We will have a longer article on Monday about the discussion on IAG’s recent financial conference call regarding the changes to British Airways Club. I thought it was worth dropping this little...

Nah, you're dealing with Americans here.

While I hate to say this, I do agree with you. And, I did live in Western Sydney for quite a while, so I think I know the demographics. Whether that will tip the balance, I don't know. Good luck to WSI (an airport we didn't have to have, but got anyway).

Why would you bother for a 1 hour flight. Surely you could have survived in YX? My wife recently flew CBR-OOL in Y and got the offer for $100. I advised her not to take it. How could it be worthwhilw in those J "cabins" that are open for the world to view and smirk? It's enough to make J pax...

Yes, I think you've got it, Poochie. Anyway, I'll give it a go. Nothing ventured, nothing gained...

I'm not sure it is.

They can do what they like if they think "fraud" might be involved.

I guess they had the same consultants as BA (IAG) and VA... Might work in Canada (USA light), but not in AU or UK?

Well, that's fine, but I flew a 220 in J from MEL to CBR in seat 2A (couldn't get row 1), and the person in front of me fully reclined his seat (for a 1 hour flight!). The space remaining in front of me was non existent. So, never again on a 220, thank you. I'd rather fly CBR-MEL on a Dash-8...

Yes, me too. Qantas (Jetstar) shot themselves in the foot by not being a little bit flexible and competing properly with TR. However, I've never had my carry on weighed for any 3K flight, and I've taken quite a few. I think the local staff knew what they up against and didn't want to piss off...

Just fly Scoot Plus to SIN and save your money and points. Don't forget to take some snacks with you.

I much prefer the Dash-8 in economy. I think the 220 sucks. Cram as many pax as is (almost) humanely possible. No thanks.
