    Qantas Hobart departure policy

    The WILMA strategy .. Back to front may not necessarily be faster than random or zone boarding - the problem with back to front is that passengers will still get jammed up. A better back to front method might be the back to front but alternate rows. Eg do all the even rows back to front then the...

    Everyone's circumstances is different. She said $4M because while most people think super keeps increasing, it may also bomb Also the aged care issue i mentioned and also if not downsizing there is the potentianlly substantial cost of maintaining the primary residence.

    Qantas Hobart departure policy

    By sorting out the carry on baggage issue The primary bottleneck in boarding a single aisle is the interference caused by stowing carry ons in overhead compartments (after they take their time getting stuff out of the carry on before stowing, followed by aisle and middle seat passengers having...

    New at Sydney Airport? WeKnow

    Yes, at a minimum it would be that, and allows the Airports to monetise the desk.

    New at Sydney Airport? WeKnow

    I am not certain that it is explicit. For example, booking an Uber rideshare is via a WeKnow app and taxis are prepaid fixed price. Services like this either take the clip from the provider, or the customer, or both. There is very little transparency about service fees and charges. WeKnow is a...

    New at Sydney Airport? WeKnow

    Well they do say it is a "priority pickup", so maybe it is. However the passenger would still have to go and find the queue spot. You mentioned problem with a booked service - do you mean the ones where they are inside the arrivals terminal with your name on a board? .... Maybe AFF should...

    New at Sydney Airport? WeKnow

    Pssibly but Im not sure that it does. For example their taxi booking service is just prepay and then go and join a special queue. They call it "premium", but I doubt that the agent will escort a passenger to the queue. Whats the difference between WeKnow queue and a general Taxi queue?. I think...

    New at Sydney Airport? WeKnow

    There would be some but I would suggest that most people have a mobile phone and are quite adept with using its apps etc. Im also not saying their services are not legitimate. I think the business captures and monetises the "convenience" factor - we see the same with the explosion of online...

    New at Sydney Airport? WeKnow

    I suspect just a booking service that probably takes a clip of all transactions. Possibly also to direct customer traffic to certain providers and not others. Example is the taxi groups GM taxis, 13Cabs and SilverService. Why would anyone want to book rideshare via a 3rd party app. I wonder if...

    New at Sydney Airport? WeKnow

    No I already know so don't need "Weknow" But Im always skeptical of third parties in what would be a simple transaction - such as hotel bookings, food delivery, car hire, internet. tourist attraction bookings etc. Rideshare apps are already in the user's language In the age of AI these services...
