I really enjoyed milocole's trip report on Tiger. Apparently that thread hit some turbulence and everyone had to return to their seats and fasten their seatbelts. Lucky I missed the storm. Thanks to the mods for their quick action and for leaving the good bits of the thread behind!
Anyway, as Petch said, the report was hilarious and as drron said, a timely reminder for frequent flyers to avoid the combination of LCC flights and schoolies week.
Another interesting thing that the trip report makes evident: there really is a distinct difference between Tiger and Virgin Blue. Some commentators felt that Tiger's entrance would challenge VB. I can't see that happening. JQ is the one who has the most to lose so it will be interesting to see how they deal with the challenge. If TT ramp their fleet up as planned, there will be quite a bit of LCC capacity on the market and, I suspect, a tight race to the bottom. :-|
