In January we were flying SYD-PER on a cash ticket with a points upgrade to J approved. The weather was dodgy and QF were flying forward as many flights as they could, and we flew out two flights earlier, and luckily enough, still had J seats. Hope the same applies to you...

I also find it good for problem solving when your'e on your own...

Probably, but it was so long ago I've forgotten...

That said, I would suggest get on a bike. I did much the same as you, and now have 2 x TKR since 2009. I have to admit being fit though, at 40 I was the same weight as the day I joined the Navy as a 15 year old, a measly 10 stone 3 pounds....

Seems like the trend is spreading, a letter to the editor in this morning's West says 'When did "active wear" become acceptable to wear at the movies, pub, shopping centre, cafe or restaurant?'....

I can well remember the very full 747s flying in from Japan every second day or so, IIRC it was Sydney for the Opera House, then Ayres Rock, and then Cairns for the Barrier Reef trip and then home. Whatever happened to them? I was in Cairns for a few days when that was going on and I do recall...

I have had similar problems, but have never looked to see which type of terminal was being used, will do so in the future. The issue is becoming less of a problem though....

I would like to see the same sign at my Woolies checkout lanes....

I believe JB747 is referring to the US and Australian Defence Forces who had what they called exchange postings, whereby they sent 40 or so of their selected personnel our way, and we sent the same number to the US. The exchange postings were usually for 3 years, like for like, eg pilots with...

Thanks, but no thanks....

And I still recall the bagging that then Premier Colin Barnet got when he proposed the building of Optus Stadium, where Pink performed. The stadium has been regularly packed out for a wide variety of sport or entertainment since it was built.

Indeed, we had 5 framed prints bought in Taipei which were professionally wrapped by the gallery, bulky but not heavy and they accepted them at the oversized luggage point which was only a few metres from the other checkins. The best part was that on arrival in Perth they were first off with...

'Tis - VMT

Thanks - it’s a Qantaslink flight for $258 with a QF 1600 number

I assume being in Perth doing the same thing and booking a flight to Geraldton or Bunbury works similarly?

Sure - but why do you need to go thru this process to find out something relatively simple??

I have had two TKRs since 2009, and can say that few airports have the same routine. The silliest one was in Abu Dhabi when I was arriving, and waved to the bloke in the white robes and turban on the other side of the screen and pointed to my knees. He ushered me thru and then said pull your...

Possibly, but if they were seated and buckled up, far less chance….

I hope he didn't call it the 'national carrier'....
