    Mostly happy with the outcome

    I guess I have been a bit lucky with my refunds and such. When the first signs of lockdowns started to occur, I had return 2 x J flights to HKG for the Cantong Fair - these were deeply discounted QF J's and it did take quite a few messages to QF's twitter team to get the refunds through...

    Red Roo Update

    I think you are forgetting that Red Roo is a person (people) who come here - so yes, they do see the noise and clutter just as any other person sees the noise and clutter. I don't disagree that their focus should be on the group they are representing, but like the majority of the members of this...

    Perhaps the diversity of the post topics in this forum has led in part to the decision of QF Social media team to withdraw support. I don't often log onto this group - usually just browse not logged in, but it sometimes seems months go by with nothing but new threads on wine, train rides...

    Tunnels

    As a termite, I make some pretty long tunnels compared to my body size with twists and turns enough to satisfy the most craziest of minds, but I am interested in the longest tunnels others have been in. Excluding the obvious Eurostar or Rail Undergrounds - who has been in a really long (or...

    Son "guested" in to Sydney Flounge 6th August.

    Brisbane Question

    I have an early flight from BNE on EK in a few weeks and am flying in from my home city the night before. The obvious choice of hotel is the Novotel - but I am loath to spend my money in that hotel chain, so can anyone offer other suggestions with easy access to and from the airport? TIA
