Yes, indeed, they did an amazing job. Thanks. They knew the event was held in Melbourne .... enough said 🌦️☔

Some reported being offered annual fee waiver when they first announced the fee introduction. I was not offered at that point and I cancelled. Then some time later I received a “we miss you” email with the offer of fee waiver for 2 years, so I opened a new card with them

Then be responsible and find a lounge seat with a power point to charge the device while in the lounge. I am yet to find a lounge that does not have some ability to plug in a regular USB charger and start the flight at 100% charge. Not all seats are near power points, but there are always some...

And the ginger glazed chicken was good too :). No pics, but was enjoyed.

For me, it’s about taking responsibility for managing MY device battery levels. If I know I need to use my device after the flight, then I stop using it during the flight to save sufficient charge for arrival needs. Using my device in-flight is optional and completely my decision and 100% within...

Yeah. I am back with the 28 degrees for 2 years as they finally offered me the fee-free deal.

In the BNE J lounge awaiting the very full QF623 to MEL.

I could be on the Airtrain too, if Mrs NM gets a call to work in the morning. Otherwise she will be my private airport transport convener. Considering if I can pack everything needed into my backpack .... hmm, maybe. Friday: 8-19 degrees, sunny with no rain forecast (just a little on the...

My local (regular) Aramex delivery guy is ok. According to his van, his name is Simon. Never had any issues with his deliveries and he is always efficient, careful, smiling and polite. Certainly seems to depend on each local delivery driver. Which bonus points purchase (with free wine thrown...

And it happened "Jusss liiike dat" (read with Tommy Cooper style Yorkshire accent).

Or a kilt, perhaps? I was more considering @drron style golf shorts 😱

Perhaps in reference to the bin# of the wine the pax would like to see on the in-flight menu?

LOL Unfortunately for Mrs NM's trip, credit card TI is not available.

wouldn't it be wonderful if there was a checkbox for each category in the policy, then I could deselect rental car cover for trips where I am not renting a car (as an example). Taylor the cover to match the risk/trip.

This topic was recently addressed (briefly) in the Ask The Pilot thread: https://www.australianfrequentflyer.com.au/community/threads/ask-the-pilot.30478/post-2927811 The chance of space debris impacting at aircraft at 35,000 feet is about the same as the chance of that same debris not hitting...

Just checking for a NZ trip for Mrs NM early 2026, and Qantas was cheaper than most other insurers I checked, by 1.5% to 16.9%. However, the flexibility to customise benefits/cover amounts to meet the needs of this specific trip resulted in my Home/Contents/Car insurance provider coming in about...

Not sure anyone would want to be patting down my socks after a long day trekking around, and certainly would not want me removing my socks for a separate run through the machines ... :eek:

"Soft Opening" to verify all the technology, processes and staff training is working and functioning correctly before announcing to the press, perhaps?

I made the booking using Au credit card via .com.au web site and it has not come up with an additional charges (other than what was quoted on the web site). So looks to be processed in AU.

Yes, but my question is whether the transaction is processed in Australia. There sre plenty of businesses that have a .com.au website, transact in AUD, but process the transaction outside Australia and the payment is treated as a foreign transaction in incurs ~3% foreign transaction fee. I...
