Probably a joke oft told before (so this is a redux):

Yep, while "full" should mean that in and of itself, but we've got to many situations where "full" doesn't necessarily mean absolutely no space left. A full tank of petrol often isn't, especially when that needle says F. A full tank should be almost dripping fuel out of it before capping. If...

That's the spirit! :)

I call this "The IQ Test"... Snipped from Facebook

Great, we'll join one of those many countries where you fear for the wellbeing of your wallet and/or your life by riding a taxi.

That's about 2 hours. Still fast paced, but that's longer than BNE-MEL. And yes I know BA crew work fast. 55 is pretty crazy for J, all the same. Does raise another idea, which is one cart but working both sides of it. Still requires 2 crew (plus 1 in galley possibly for non-standard drink...

The interesting part here will be how to serve that many more people on a single aisle configuration. At least with twin aisle you can roll one cart per aisle. Maybe if they have two people, both have separate carts, and one can plate the main on the tray, while the one behind offers drinks and...

For whatever it's worth, unless the meal is prepared a la minute (i.e. cooked to order from scratch), 1 dish per minute is a very, very slow delivery time. I think a rough guide for a restaurant is that no customer should be waiting more than 10 minutes for the next course after they finish...

What was your experience? Same booking and didn't let you pool allowance? That bites. Honest told, I don't know if this is something written into baggage policies or just a courtesy. In decades gone by, it used to be nearly universal to allow pooling of allowances. Even strangers on the same...

Well, they are a LCC........

You'll be fine.

Dare I say it's been... ferry wet? :D

It takes 5 minutes for me to walk from home to the pub, but it takes 30 minutes from pub to home. The difference is staggering. 😀

The proliferation of battery banks was well and truly after scares of low quality, dangerous phone batteries; see Samsung Galaxy Note 7. If it seemed so easy that a good phone battery should lead on that a good battery bank is easy to produce, then I guess we're not seeing it. Part of it, of...

Seen that rice so many times now, not just this dish. What's in it? Looks like pepitas and some sort of leaf (not spinach)... is the rice flavoured?

For those of us playing the status game (to make it worth it, i.e. get and be able to use it, and not from a cold start), some QF J fares, if bought in advance long enough, work out quite reasonably in terms of $ per SC. If you had to take that trip anyway, it isn't so ridiculous to pay QF J for...

Technically no, but it is almost always lumped together, except spelling errors should be largely easier to avoid compared to grammar ones. No, pronunciation is not a grammar mistake - that's a whole different kettle of fish. Unless speech-to-text goes a whole lot more mainstream.

That's a good idea, and I already have one of those.

Trust me to forget that AFF likely has one of the highest concentrations of digitally literate elderly people in society.

Once again, most commendable that you are keeping with technology. I wonder how well the customs questions translate via Google Translate, especially in offline mode. Remember that there are penalties for lying on the ICP (yes, you could argue to just tick 'yes' if not sure at all); I think...
