    Article: These Airlines Give Lounge Access in Premium Economy

    … and drive “paid” Business and First customers to look for carriers who don’t open their lounges to “wannabe’s” (and you can add Economy travelling points/miles and status collecting customers to the “wannabe” category).

    Article: These Airlines Give Lounge Access in Premium Economy

    That’s certainly a “spiffy” looking One World lounge at LAX, clean … no food all over the floor, sensible “customer” density … no having to hang from the rafters, good staff to customer ratio. “Ok staff, thanks for coming in early for the publicity shots. Doors open in fifteen minutes so hurry...

    ACCC having a look at competition or lack of it

    …in that case, just hang around a while, and if foreign State owned and subsidised airlines (such as Qatar, Emirates, Etihad) get the green light to plunder your local population, you will probably get evidence of “unintended consequences” in abundance.

    New EK Premium Economy photos released

    Eurail vs point to point train tickets

    Wife and self purchased Eurail passes on our first big OE around Western Europe quite a few years ago. Not familiar with current Eurail terms and conditions but back then the Pass covered fares (with conditions) and DIDN’T cover seat bookings. I.e. if you wanted a reserved and guaranteed seat...

    Do you get tempted to indulge in the lounge, just because it's "free"?

    Wow! You beaut! Looking forward to the day I’m mature enough to do that too.

    SYD to CHC A380 Flights Cancelled

    Never mind, they say every cancellation cloud has a silver lining. Think of the reduction in neurological and optical damage from the new (polarising?) decor and faux wood panelling.
