Off to the USA and Canada. I am a type one and need 4-6 shots per day of insulin and this is something that I think I need to get for my insulin kit for sure. Off to the apple shop this weekend. I travel a lot domestically as well and with the insanity of baggage of late its a solid investment

I would just ban everyone but me..............................

While you are at it google the difference between Type One (nothing you did to get it and nothing you can do to prevent it) and much more serious. Kills more people than Breast cancer, lung cancer and Aids put together (source: WHO). No cure just a minimum of 4 jabs per day and it is zero fun...

As a type one i am not able to have regular soft drinks (as a bonus I dislike soft drinks anyway) but for those type ones who do not having a diet option means water? thanks. Make me glad I quit flying 150 times a year

I rather Hertz mainly because the velocity points always come through without prompting. I am a Presidents circle and like the dedicated line that gets you out faster of there is an issue and the just go to the board and grab the car at other places. In the USA I was upgraded from a Chevy...

I was delayed in SYD with Jetstar 2 years ago and they wanted to bump me to a 6.15 am the next day and put me into Avalon not Tullamarine (where my car was) and shuttle me out to homebush for my accom which they would pay for. I was on a day run so had no toiletries, change of undegarments or...

on VA domestic as both Gold and WP I have received lounge access on arrival with a boarding pass, card, smile and a quick "hi I just need to use a clean toilet please" and the angels let me in. I always make sure to thank them on the way out. Love the VA angels.

My first ever international Flight was on a 747. I loved it. It was huge for me as a kid I remember thinking that if all the seats were taken out we could play cricket in there.

Yep the Adelaide lounge is not awesome but have found that the team are super helpful and that makes up for it a bit. The new Perth lounge (well 2 years) is very good. Best I have been to was Etihad in Paris. Full ala carte restaurant, proper champagne (from a place I had done a tour of just...

I took a friend not long ago who had never been in a loungeand I recount the conversation below. Him: How much is the beer here? Me: Free mate Him: No the crown largers not the tap stuff Me; Free Him: really wow. What about the food? Me: Free Him: No not the nuts the whole buffet thing? Me...

Over Easter Mrs Cult Of One and I flew to Perth and she left her iPad in seat pocket. Called VA baggage service next day, they asked a few identifying questions (colour of cover and face colour of bezel) and confirmed that they had it. I gave them a time I would be there and it was waiting and...

. Do you have a bug in my house.?

the currency changes; Credit card everything and away you go. The smartphone helps to convert and have a basic formula in your head. I find a standard thing like the cost of a beer, coffee, gum and when I see something that is 1,000 whatevers I just say in my head is that worth the equivalent of...

I always wear jeans on long haul flights. I am not a Tracky Dack person and have not owned a pair for 35 years. So for me jeans (I keep wallet and passport in pocket for security) and a Tshirt with a hoodie over the top as I like the whole layers thing. Slip on shoes that I can put on/off hands...

I had to be moved because of an obese pair of travelers taking around 30% of my seat on VA once there was only one spare seat on the plane and the FA's were giggling when I came up to them as soon as the seatbelt sign went off. They said that they saw the couple getting on and thought that the...

As a person who travels this route with family living in Miami area this scares the hell out of me. Flying cross country from Miami last time landing in one terminal and running to the other I arrived at the gate lounge to find the plane boarding. There was no time to grab food at airport or in...

One year I watched the whole of The west wing on planes all 7 seasons. Started on IFE and then the rest on my laptop. Love IFE. I can really switch off from work and zone out.

Tomorrow morning 1-8-17 6 am ish will be at VA lounge Melbourne. able to guest one

I hear you my friend. I have leveled back. and feel OK about a status drop. I pulled 1500 SC's on Virgin in 9 months flying economy only and almost all of that domestic had QF flights as well. More time at hotels than home and as many family dinners face to face as on face-time. Travel is...
