    ZCZC Lots of inaccuracies in your post, for a start Notams may have been around in various forms since early last century but the structure and format was only set with the creation of ICAO in 1947 when the acronym became common usage. The structure of Notams is set by ICAO annexe 15, if there...

    Jumbo is always an option if your into seafood https://www.jumboseafood.com.sg/en/east-coast-seafood-centre I would avoid western food and get into local stuff, nothing wrong with a good feed of chicken rice, a deceptively simple dish that is not so simple but oh so tasty. Most hawker centres...

    Checking in to a hotel at a self-service kiosk?

    That’s just echoing what the website does when booking with the same upsell. Given the free breakfast is an APAC thing, word hasn’t got back to HQ yet to fix their systems

    “new” QF B737-800s

    Been a while since Boeing have used the d check terminology. It’s now called P48 and I don’t believe any of the QF birds have hit the requirement for their third P 48 let alone their fourth.

    Who else has to regularly chase up Qantas for points & status credits owed....

    Flights with partners can take a week to credit as their systems are not live with QFF, they do a connect and data exchange usually on a weekly basis at set times.

    Qantas Abandons Haneda Slots - Unused

    I am waiting to see the outrage expressed via a letter to the editor in the SMH in coming weeks, it’s a scandal compared to the issues you normally read about ;)

    I might be slightly biased since I used to write Notams but I don’t think they are a problem from an old ATC perspective and a pilot. They use standardised language and whilst not perfect, generally do a good job. Similar complaints have been leveled at the seafarers equivalent. I spent a bit of...

    Iberia Airlines - Refund Approved But Cant Pay

    Op doesn’t need swift, the swift number was why they said no, and I was pointing out there are other options for international on the same account.

    Turkish c130 inflight break up

    The wing box is intact on the video as it falls near the coughpit section, and I did read some speculation the No 3 engine prop was missing. Unlike the USMC incident however the tail section is not attached, so possibly it went first?

    It’s humans, mistakes happen. Tick in the box mentality is quite prevalent in Asia in my experience across various professional roles and more so with some airlines. Malaysia and Air Asia have had serious incidents at both BNE and OOL, and let’s not forget Batik in CBR arriving before airspace...
