Yet it to me it tasted disgusting, it looked and tasted like a fishier version of tinned tuna! In any event I of course enjoyed the satays, and didn't really need any more food at 11am ... especially after breakfast in the lounge.

All very well unless your tastebuds (or worse your allergies) and seafood are incompatible. Seafood maybe premium, but it is something that you like or hate. (I 'm on the hate side, with some exceptions when complemented by overpowering other flavours, like in a laksa ). So for most SQ...

Always be wary, I gave ChatGPT a task to find something out (getting an email receipt from a rideshare app, which I couldn't see how on the app) and it gave incorrect advice a couple of times.

No definitely only 10%. And it's a different notice to the regular "Notice of Assessment" it is instead a "Notice of Withholding tax" and applies a 10% tax to any interest you declared (where withholding tax not already taken). I think a couple of issues arise, a number of bank accounts...

You can cry or you can just have a laugh… (Particularly from 05:20 mark)

I actually enjoy it. It's quite zen - really quiet, peaceful space, usually very few people in there. It's appropriately sized for the number of F seats and Solitaire's that pass through MEL. Sometimes it's nice to be away from the crowds and have a quiet space - but maybe it appeals...

Whilst as a basic rule I prefer to avoid overnight flights wherever possible, the north/west bound overnights from East CoastAustralia to SE Asia are IMHO more palatable than the south/east bound ones from SE Asia to Australia. They are slightly longer and have better departure and arrival...

Is there not a difference between splitting the bill (itemised, which has always been an issue) and splitting payment (put x on this card and y on this one, which seems to only have become more of an issue recently)? Last time I tried this was simply told computer says no. (Or similar words).

A couple of weeks ago I “connected “ in LHR from T2 to T4 on separate tickets from SQ to AT. SQ were able to through check my luggage (thankfully), and thus I contemplated doing an airside transfer. When I reached the connections area and just missed a bus I gather. Published time for...

If they have enough serviceable aircraft. That's probably their main constraint now.

To be a little cynical they achieved what they wanted. No need for them any more. ABX-MEL, as pointed out is not a good route for leisure travellers and not good times for business travellers. IIRC Rex used to fly at least daily (if not 2x) during weekdays at more business friendly times...

Whilst I agree that it is questionable whether this route will work, picking up demand from MEL which is constrained may help But frankly, I suggest outside the AFF echo chamber the target market for this is not people who are taking business class CBR-SYD/MEL-SIN-DPS. It’s turning a 6hr...

Aah, GenSan. I've been there at least half a dozen times., for work, but not in the last 10 years. First time I ever stayed in a hotel with security guards at the driveway entrance with visible semi (I assume) automatic weapons. That was in 2004, but the safety did seem to improve over...

It would probably be on brand for Jetstar to have and sell codeshares from CBR-SYD to connect with JQ flights out of SYD , with codeshares operated by Murray’s :-)

Interesting always was a SilkAir route, but then went to Scoot when SilkAir was disbanded.. maybe aircraft availability related at the time but as the SQ narrowbody fleet grows it does give them more options for either moving to SQ or as is most likely dual operations on a route. Not unlike...

Jetstar did, about 12 years ago. Discontinued in Oct 2014. https://australianaviation.com.au/2014/06/jetstar-changes-to-perth-services/

Would LAX indicate an issue at the SFO end that resulted in divert? I wouldn't imagine it would be a planned diversion (whereas HNL could well be) as LAX is ~100 miles further than SFO from ADL.

For some it might be best to have Platinum on Qatar airlines, rather than gold on both QF and VA.

I always scoop it up with a couple of the skewers. It works. And it would feel sort of wrong eating it from a metal spoon.

When it works it works, when it doesn't it doesn't. Not one for the faint hearted, and not advisable to have non-cancellable accommodation on night 1 in SIN. I'm OK with MEL-SIN it as long as I don't need to be back in SG at a specific time. But I have the luxury of not needing to deal...
