Yep, as shown on a previous post, it's a cursory inclusion and not a dedicated plate. That said, we all know NZ has a great dairy industry, so I'd be concerned about having to make cheese from canaries.... :)

The purple lighting always makes it difficult to take a decent photo, viz. throws off the colour balance altogether. Can't quite tell what the rice is, and the chicken doesn't look like the greatest cuts, but if the taste is good (and the chicken isn't dry) then I'm happy to forgive.

Looks like the Grinch on the way to the barber shop.

Holy dooley - when I applied for this card with a similar promo a couple of years back, it was 50,000 points with the base $4000 spend (along with instant Star Alliance Gold). Now they want the (admittedly reduced) threshold of $48,000 to net the full amount.

WCMO is The Star Club can't and/or won't tell you how many Casino Dollars and Tier Points you will earn for a particular activity. (Not have earned, obviously you can find out after you do the act, but not before) It's like dynamic pricing but in reverse. At least with airline or hotel dynamic...

That's a knockout deal there!

Not really travel as such.... ....went onto Qantas Wines last night to purchase some wine: many gifts, bonus points and work towards PC requalification all in one. I knew I had a PC voucher to use, too. Did all the research, checked wine trackers, weighed up options.... finally put together a...

That news sucks...

So what did you accept or turn down in place of a "hot dinner"? Was it tasty? We've talked about this many times, but I still am amazed how that could happen. Surely planes haven't been that slow to allow that, but I also doubt that one (let alone two) FAs could take care of all of that on such...

Obviously not enough dip. :) Ironically, crudites and a drink is a fairly traditional accompaniment. Of course, the whole idea was to enjoy fresh vegetables with an aperitif; those carrots are far, far, far from the garden they were grown in...

Well in my case I slept and later snored. Not sure how annoying that snoring was, if there was any, but considering I hadn't been told, doused in all sorts of liquids in retaliation or smothered with a pillow or blanket, it mustn't have been unsually annoying to any given passenger or crew. My...

QF1278 (QantasLink) MEL-BNE dep 2105 (sched, ATD was about 65 min late) op National Jet a/c 223 (yes, I got that code wrong in my previous post) Choices were between mushroom tortellini with tomato sugo or a chicken salad. Selecting the tortellini would have been a safe choice, but given the...

Maybe not the right place to post, but a reminder to breathe, because we all were once novices...

Kimchi fried rice topped with a fried egg, available with or without chicken and chilli sauce. The menu description says it includes Asian greens. As you can see, they really just meant the spring onions. Neverthless, quite tasty indeed. Bonus marks for the soft runny egg yolk.

QF1273 (QantasLink) BNE-MEL dep 1655 (sched, ATD was about 30 min late) op National Jet a/c 222 Choices were between beef salad or glazed chicken. I opted for the chicken, which ended up being some sort of soy and ginger sweet glaze which tasted a lot like my mum's three cup chicken. The...

The A220 (and newer aircraft generally) now permit roller bags to be stored on their short side rather than "flat" on their length. Yet, people still store them on their length, occupying much more space than needed. I tell you, the <insert word here that isn't complimentary>s in the J cabin...

I'll be staying at The Savoy on Little Collins. Mainly an advantage due to being across the road from Southern Cross Station. Be a long day tomorrow of work then drive to airport then hop on board and arrive late in Melbourne, but looking forward to this weekend.

Better being the remote than the antenna. :D
