The fare increase doesn't bother me (I'm 70 ish) but the timetable changes seem rather savage, for someone living in outer Belconnen. Just cost saving I guess (not surprised seeing all those empty buses driving around). Not to mention the Out of Service buses, which seem to outnumber the in...

I always thought that QR owning 25% (or watever it is) would be a bad thing. From this sort of nonsense to excluding many partners such as EY. QR is milking it for all it's worth. Perhaps Katherinw King was right after all (that's hard to imagine, but....).

Not me, in the ACT. But I do get a similar "discount" with shopback and topcashback from time to time.

I currently have 32 credits and want the 2 red wine glasses for 36. However, I have an order being delivered tomorrow, so that should increase the number to 36+ So I guess I'll drive down to the nearest Coles on Friday in the 40 degree heat and claim my glasses.

Or move to Qantas.

Yes indeed. I'm always a bit paranoid when booking a connecting flight to a long haul flight arriving the day after the day of departure.

Might be a slight hassle, though.

That's why I've never done it. Too much of a hassle. With a Railcard you can get many of the benefits.

It's not how BA did it. I guess it may well depend on the feedback from VA's brave changes to Velocity.

From where to where? I expect SYD, CBR and ADL could give that a run for its money as far a public transport to/from the airport is concerned.

Yes, that's the only situation I will book with an OLTA. Close in.

Yeah, that's pretty much my strategy.

Can I just say, as a general comment, I don't fly business class for the meals. I sometimes don't bother with the meal service at all depending on how I feel and what's on offer. However, I sometimes do look forward to a glass or two of decent alcohol to help me sleep. If there's a nice meal and...

Well, I had the weirdest email from Tesco this morning. I was asked to provide a review of my visit to a store in the UK I apparently I had visited yesterday. This means someone had used my club card number (scary). So I did provide a review, for the points. Hope they liked it...

I thought I might have copped a fine in Tassie (overseas) a few weeks ago, but I haven't received anything in the mail, so all good? And, btw, you have to drive a bit like a maniac to keep up with those logging trucks. I was following one on the road up to George Town, and we were doiing 120...

But can you do that with the airlines involved and expect a guaranteed empty seat even if the flight is full/oversild?

Surely this is now all a dead duck with the likes of Amaysim's roaming products.

Then doesn't that shoot your costings to pieces?

I know I don't want to. In the past I've done quite a few trips between AU and EU in Y (but with a couple of stops on the way) and I likely won't be doing it again. But. of course you're quite welcome to do it. Well, I say that, but if I was travelling with my partner, and it was A330's all the...

I'm not sure if things have changed that much, so when I arrive at TPE in Feb I'll be withdrawing a fair bit of cash, to tide me over my stays.
