Time for my yearly migration to warmer weather, and to the US and for the first time Canada.
A trip report of sorts when I remember to update things.
First off my flight to LAX on QF11 , pushed back from 1750 to 2100 due to mechanical repairs. Notifications by SMS and Email around 6hrs prior so plenty of advance notice. Still left early enough to avoid the School/afternoon peak crowds on the train , so arrived at SYD around 1600.
Landside departures virtually deserted, so a quick check in /bag drop.
My upgrade to J was successful, so through security with a grand total of 0 in front of me.
Through the Duty free gauntlet, and to the temp lounge in the basement.
Had read reports of crowding issues, but to my relief plenty of room available.
Butter Chicken and Rice among the hot dishes, and just a hint of spice to it but not too bad as far as free food goes.
