MEL-SYD - B737 J (CR) because I still want to use the MEL J Lounge

Too bad no more JQi flights then for access to MEL F Lounge

This one is for you @VPS
Thanks for the tip

Lovely coffee and cake today. Loved the Picasso Museum with a private guide and learnt even more about him. Did nor realise the Parisian Museum was established so that his family paid their death duties in paintings.

Glad you enjoyed it

A last minute trip to Spain (a slow, remote coastal town). A road trip in the UK (Bradford/Liverpool/Snowdonia). Senegal, can't remember if I mentioned that one. That's it for the year, although pondering a trip to ALG.

So a slight alteration to our Vietnam plans. First part is staying the same but we had a bit over a week at the end where we hadn’t booked anything. We had decided to spend it in Cambodia after a little side trip to Hong Kong but when speaking to my father last night he informed me that they had just booked 4 weeks in China again (we introduced them to China years ago and have been with them a few times and all up for leisure Mrs Jase and I have been 11 times for leisure and my parents have us beat on that) so we are going to go and catch up for a few days. Once I go over their itinerary I’ll try and work something out but we will finish with 2-3 nights in Shanghai and I’ve booked Cathay PVG-HKG-SGN to get us back to HCMC the day before we fly home

Depending what time.e you arrive SGN, no doubt you are aware how chaotic the formalities are - might be worth a fast track service - wish we had in July 9pm arrival @jase05
Enjoy your time with the folks

Yeah, we are at about 50/50 success rate at SGN but when it’s bad, it’s bad. I’m yet to work out a pattern for it either. We have allowed ourselves a full night before coming back into SGN but on the way over we only have 195 minutes between arriving in SGN and transferring to our domestic flight to PQC so I reckon I’ll go the Fastrack option there just in case

Especially now that the domestic terminal is a bus ride away @jase05


New domestic terminal departures mid-morning July. Fortunately we breezed through Sky Priority
