    MNL Int-Dom transfer

    Yes the transfer should be painless as it is the same terminal and airline. Just need to take care that no one gets the opportunity to slip a bullet inside your bag. Not completely sure about the bag but maybe just ask when u check in at CNS but I suspect whughes3 is correct as u will be...

    Cutting in on security lines

    Yep and especially if the person going past seeks permission first. Should not be a concern and certainly no excuse to give the person going past a blunt response to their request to pass.

    Jetstar in-air fight

    I heard that one of the overgrown kids got a broken nose and that caused a heap of blood to go everywhere. I'm sure that not for a moment will any of them consider that they did anything wrong and they will think that they are the victims due to the major over reaction by the pilot and crew that...

    Mr Shouty in the lounge

    I always notice the shouting phone user who paces back and forth in a specific range across footpaths and train platforms as u try to get past. They normally throw in sudden arm movements that u cannot predict and often seem to bellow non stop so I'm not sure if anyone is even on the other end...

    Caticlan Airport rip off

    Yep it happens and very difficult to avoid sometimes so provided it doesn't cost too much there is no point getting too upset over it. Many years ago in an hotel I had to pay for a TV channel selector knob that I was told I had taken as I had not reported it as missing when I checked into the...

    Worse than feet on bulkheads

    She needs to be careful as I know a bloke who did that once and his head got hit by an express travelling food and drink trolley. It really knocked him around for a while afterwards.

    'Shame on American!': Passengers boo as crying woman is thrown off flight Read more:

    Re: 'Shame on American!': Passengers boo as crying woman is thrown off flight Read m Based on the video it makes no sense why the crew acted the way they did. If she had failed to obey a directive from the crew why did the company not evidence that instead of offering her $250. For some reason...

    Has journalism really sunk to these low depths?

    Easy to read with not too much personal opinion from the writer. Always easy to get grog there. Seems Ok

    Courier to MNL for an Aussie drivers licence delivery

    I recently used Australia Post for a document to Manila and was able to track the envelope and it arrived with no issues

    Complaint lodged after air rage incident on Jetstar flight

    While I agree with the principle the right to recline needs to be exercised with a level of consideration for others. I know mums can have a difficult time trying to control their monsters and stopping them from kicking the back of the seat in front etc. might not be a priority but still not...

    Security bias (or the perception of such)

    I think it comes back to if you are well organised, polite and well mannered u cop the treatment. Every time lately when going overseas at Sydney I seem to get thrown/directed into the X-ray machine so they can see what I have really got and every time I think 'what have I done to deserve this'...

    Taking ownership of the middle seat on a QF 737-800

    You had a nice comfortable seat so don't let the nonsense of other passengers worry you and certainly don't get involved with them cause you won't win and it will just upset yourself.

    Indonesia Air Asia flight QZ 8501 loses contact with ATC

    Yes I am only speaking from the view point of a passenger but I hope being too busy for the pilots and ATC to work through a problem is not the reason why the plane finished up being fished up out of the sea

    Indonesia Air Asia flight QZ 8501 loses contact with ATC

    Seems to be an issue with ATC and the pilot communications. It is a bit disturbing that ATC can just simply say no to a pilot course change request without any further dialogue or presenting / discussing other feasible options.

    Rumour: Joyce going; Gail Kelly coming

    I reckon that being CEO of a big 4 Australian Bank would have to be one of the more easy public company CEO jobs around while being the CEO of Qantas would have to be one of the most demanding. Ms Kelly will be tested if the rumor is true.

    Qantas passenger faces jail term for stealing

    Alcohol is a very important part of many Australians lives. Sometimes officials over react but maybe not so in this case where everybody safety needs to be ensured.

    Seat squatting in Exit Row Seats on International Flights

    I flew Air Asia once and paid for an exit row (very small extra cost) and was by myself but a little old lady moved into one of the spare seats after a few hours. I wondered about it for a moment but she looked so old and frail I just hoped she was more comfortable there. I think if there is an...

    Qantas spits out VB and Crown Lager in favour of up-market brews

    I always respect the Irish to make the correct decision in respect of grog and I will manage with whatever they want to dish up but I do feel that it is a touch of elitist BS mixed with an acceptance of current beer fashion trends but it would certainly not be about taste or quality.

    Sydney Airport Australia's worst again - ACCC

    It would be good if everyone's expectations of a second Sydney airport are eventually met and the Australian tax payer is not totally just throwing their money at another BS plan or study but I suspect that if built at a large tax payer cost it will be far worse than the current airport with no...

    Sydney Airport Australia's worst again - ACCC

    I think this rating is just about getting the general public on side to throw a heap of poor tax payers money to build a 2nd airport for Sydney in woop woop land. An airport so close to the city with good public transport links and parking is a huge plus for any city and this is what Sydney has...
