A very in-depth and interesting program. "Death by a thousand cuts" was the theme. I thought it was well done how they included the 2011 strike-breaking, underlining how this has lead to culture over the last decade of redundancies, outsourcing and undermining of conditions across...

Downgrade to bronze due to the hermit kingdom of HK still requiring hotel quarantine :( Have fun all

Was there any word with respect to sustainability and carbon reduction with these new aircraft and ULH flights? Interested as to whether the additional fuel loads and subsequent burn work out to less CO2 compared to a stopover...

@dougie it will likely take several hours for your result to come back - you will need to stay in your room during this time

Singapore is a no brainer at present - high booster rates and rational COVID measures allow you to relax. Other Asian countries can not come anywhere close - I would not be comfortable going to Malaysia, possibly Thailand but the risk of border closures and large uncontrolled outbreaks is...

A little self-discipline never goes astray 1640851397 Nice but not sure how any of that is relevant if we are going to millions of cases and seeing how the hospitals cope? Do you have an approach to factor in mortality from other causes of death who cannot be treated due to inability to get to...

Assuming the entire population is allowed to be infected then... 26mil Australian population 520,000 .... 1-2% of which will need go to hospital 26,000 .... 4-5% of those in hospital will die (based on SA data to-date obv. subject to variation locally for Oz)

The level of privilege on this thread is becoming a little much. Have several friends in the health system who are bracing for serious levels of deaths and hospitalization as Dom lets it rip. Plenty of lessons are being ignored from the UK when they opened at this low a level of total...

Presumably the borderforce entry permit will just be updated to capture vaccine proof and then to enforce the daily cap for unvaxxed

seeing some more inventory ex-Asia drip in via Scoot and TG at present the usual hash-up of planning and communication by both the NSW and Feds isn't helping I'm sure

Trying to book flights back for Xmas from HKG. Only option is FJ now, 0 availability into SYD via any other major hub in Asia (CX/SG/PR/TG/JL/MU) Nothing but p... and wind at present I'm afraid in this "reopening" talk.

Anyone have the exact calculation on quarantine timing for Brisbane - ie enter quarantine on May 31 (which is 'Day 0' apparently) does that mean check out on morning of June 14 is correct? Did time in Sydney last year which works differently I think. Thanks!

you may want to consider your potential as an asymptomatic virus host carrier, this would be much less likely if you are vaccinated. the risk of death by any of the approved vaccines is no greater than any other vaccine you have already taken - death in a car accident is far more likely.

gold for me hk singapore ATB should be operating by then

(Forward Booking) Cash is King

Looks a helluva lot more comfortable than QF new PE

Brilliant - leaving ex-HKG this would make it even more attractive to travel with EVA to the states

Not sure I'd be in a rush to jump on any REX-operated jet given their past track record (despite their teflon management), they might have done better establishing a new brand

About 3.8% but I paid by Google pay with a credit card so there were cheaper options. The rate given was spot on to XE.
