Given the current state of air fares ex Australia, I would hope we would have a large support group of people asking that people fly their favorite Australian airline to the closest SE Asian airport (in economy) and then find a suitable partner airline to transfer to their final destination...

Those linkt messages are providing me with practice in forwarding SMS to the SPAM number. The eastern states are not my normal wandering Fred

I understand we don't know each other yet but there is a serious proposal i want to discuss with you. Some people take a more simple direct approach when trying to provoke "inappropriate " wandering Fred

For someone who does not actually live in the Perth metro area (but a few hours away in WA) the arrival times of almost all international flights into PER are AWFUL. And the MH 125 flight (x13) that does arrive in the middle of the afternoon (allowing for a drive home) earns nothing with QFF...

QF priced the PER-ASP route in $$ at such a level that economy classic rewards were a "great deal". Then they scheduled only on the weekends.... Alas visiting the grandchildren now requires many more thousands of miles wandering Fred

JNB would not be worth going out of the way but the prices are only a little bit more than NRT.... Can I be fooled while wandering Fred

According to EF, the base rates (ie the $$ BEFORE taxes and airline "special charges") are about 30% less for LONE4 and DONE4 in Oslo than in Sydney. LONE4 is about 20% less in Oslo than Tokyo, though Tokyo is slightly less for the DONE4. As always YMMV and in Australia always get multiple price...

The 08:55 JQ flight DPS-PER was cancelled 15 Oct just before check in opened No seats on JQ for at least 3 days to PER. Offered hotel and meal costs. Managed to get QF seats via MEL but will arrive in PER more than 24 hours later Will be interesting to see JQ's reimbursement coverage First...

The "addition"to get the MAX fare between PER and DPS is not that large a "markup" Fair number of points and an additional 25 SC (total 50) Cheaper than QF domestic when wandering Fred

Online states a bagdrop would be available. Being international, there would have to have been a document check, checking your data. At the JQ checkin at PER, there was no advantage to the passenger as there was only one (VERY long est 45minute) queue. The advantage to JQ would have been...

JQ online seriously asks that you checkin online....... for the international DPS route On arrival at the terminal, it was obvious that there were no dedicated check in positions for travelers who had followed the online advice. Though it was clear that those who had, took a lot less time to...

QF 44 (DPS-SYD) B class fare issued by AA 28 Sep 1 J seat left at check in Unsuccessful at gate (Manual checklist - nominally "training") Though I did retain an empty seat next to me. Pity the transition to A330s on this route starts after my return. The perils of wandering Fred
