Really? Clearly no point in having an opinion.

It's quieter in front. Not sure if there if there is a difference between abeam or behind.

There's obviously some big data sitting behind this feature. I would add that flight delays and gate changes often get pushed through quicker than the Qantas app.

There are 3 hotels in that small area. The Park, the Royal Park and the Conrad. We've stayed at the latter 2 and they are both very good for the price points. Would go back to both. Haven't stayed at the Park though we might have a look at the rates next time we visit. Yurakucho is another good...

re: Discussion/Q&A on Best QF Status Run Options That is a genuine frequent flyer

Captain has just notified us of this. Unknown delay. Maybe half an hour Just been told half an hour delay then atc will have spots reallocate. And we'll leave for Sydney

If you are silly enough to ignore the seatbelt light you might also be thinking that travel insurance isn't needed either. Stupid is...

My SO who never remembers her pin always gets her purchases approved. I get a simultaneous email saying if it is not legit to contact them immediately. Clearly their fraud protection systems are fairly sophisticated

I believe some people quite enjoy a lack of privacy. Is the word frisson? ;)

Did this tonight. It worked a treat. The gate staff got quite a surprise I thought.

The early buses from Rydges are a mini bus and fill quickly.

There is a find my device feature with Google for Android devices. It pinpoints my devices to the street address and you can ring, lock or erase the device.

My SO has the Samsung and is very happy with it. She did have some trouble with the fingerprint reader but the phone support was very good and resolved the issue. The different screen format seems to be excellent for online shopping :)

If you are coming from t3 the security at the western end of the terminal is handy. For breakfast T2 has some good options though. I like Movida at the airport when I'm travelling with Virgin.

This is a shark attack event. Good headlines but insignificant risk. Unless the thief was really after well used undies or cheap souvenirs I can't see checked baggage being a fertile paddock for crime.

It's still a gas turbine turning the propellers and uses jet fuel so not a huge difference there. Pluses for the dash 8s are they fly lower so the view is generally better. Quick to get on and off. Legroom is ok and no trouble with seat recliners. Service is quick. Downsides are they can be a...

Have a good trip. Japan is a country I'm happy to go back to again and again. Tokyo is amazing and pretty much anywhere you'll go there'll be friendly people and great things to experience. Don't forget your hat and sunscreen for June.

The Conrad in Tokyo is a great hotel. Another option we've also stayed at is the Royal Park Shiodome. It's a bit cheaper and they have great showers in the better rooms. It's a bit closer to Shimbashi but doesn't have as good a view of the park and the rainbow bridge. Another advantage of that...

June in Tokyo is hot and humid during the days. We were there last year for the rugby and come 2 pm most days we were looking for somewhere with air conditioning. There are some great cheap little izakaya and yakitori places at Yurakucho under the train line. Another place worth a try is under...

Another option for coming back is to spend the previous night at one of the Narita hotels. Check out and leave your bags at the hotel in the morning. Visit Narita during the day. The temple, garden and Omotesando are well worth a visit. Then go back to the hotel, pick-up your bags and go to the...
