Didn't this thread used to be a sticky ? (the 2008 one)

Can't remember the 2008 one actually being a 'sticky', lets give this one a go ...

I'm done for February, so might as well post up. I'm reposting my January stuff as well (too bad I can't delete my previous January post) because my JQ crediting predictions weren't accurate (not a bad thing - see below) and it also contained some mathematical errors (amongst other glaring inaccuracies).

February is also the last month in my QFF membership year.

No travel in January.
Next weekend I'll have four Qantas flights under my belt, but will receive no miles or status credits from them.

I have a Levenger Shirt Pocket Briefcase to record my flights on the go, including times for pushback, landing etc. This information eventually gets transcribed into a low-level database (currently using Bento 2), which is probably useless for producing any sort of reports for this thread here.

Nadi Airport-Has it improved recently

We are travelling to Fiji next month, and I recall around a year ago when we were there, the Airport was chaotic going through Security. We can check in quickly as we are both QFFP, but what are anybodies recent experience regarding check in and through Security screening please, how long does it take these days, we are on the 9.00am Flight.

That was the plan and only just made it (the downturn in the markets stopped any travel).

Now to start my travels again...with plans for trips to PER, ADL, SYD and MEL to drum up business (and CNS in May ).
