[Flyfrequently]

Couldn’t deal with a proper meal for dinner after last night

Must've been some night @Katie

It was a great night, highly recommend!

Looks like it was a good event, although I did try and get some flights, I am still stuck in the UK due to the war. I was meant to be on a flight back a week ago, maybe next year.

View from 4A at gate 49 ...

Thanks Jessica and Kate for arranging another fun weekend.

...

I reiterate my thanks. Also more thanks to @blackcat20 for the lift ... It hadn't dawned on me it was just the one set of traffic lights between the airport and home.

I am in EU this week transiting LHR T5 most days. Maybe we can cross paths?

Edit: what could possibly go wrong!

Depending on your travels, maybe yes. I will be in LHR flying with CX tomorrow night, if it all works out.

Thanks for a fantastic night out, the meal was delicious.

Here I am, just waiting for my final 125 DCS status credits from yesterday's flights to hit my account either today or tomorrow.

On the last flight out with @Major leaving just the locals behind.

In classic QF fashion, they’ve run out of the protein option in J by row 1! The vegetarian option was quite economy-esque.

Thanks again to Jess and Kate for organising!

Thank you to @JessicaTam for organising another fantastic NZ dinner! Excellent turnout, fabulous venue and food, great company and interesting conversation as always. Enjoyed catching up with familiar faces and meeting some new ones. Looking forward to the next one

What!?

To clarify - they loaded 6 protein meals, 2 for the pilots, and 4 for those in row 1.

The journey continues… we are stuck in our plane as the aerobridge at our BNE gate is inoperable.

I’m going to miss my connection to SYD and QF have “proactively” rebooked me on the 5am, which is most definitely not something I want to take.

It took us just over an hour and a gate change to finally leave the aircraft.

Turns out QF had a few cancellations today - I actually did get a same-day flight but it got cancelled

I’ve been put up at the Rydges fortitude valley because all the brissy airport hotels are full! Got the 14.15 flight out. Let’s see how long my Wellington trip gets “extended” tomorrow

Not happy.
My J meal was a packet of cheese and crackers. That pasta slop is with eggplant, sauteed zucchini, mashed up tomatoes and feta.
It looked terrible
