    Famous people seen (or even met) whilst flying or lounging

    Melbourne Victory women's and men's team at ADL last Friday. Took us a while to figure out what Sportsball club they were. Mr Katie spotted a "Victory" somewhere on someone's bag, I think. I could only see sponsor names on their clothing.

    Brisbane dinner - 20 January 2026

    @Mattg I notice the menu online said one bill per table - but maybe you already have experience splitting bills there? Just wanted to check. I'm still not sure if I can make it next week.

    AFF Gathering #19 in ADL on 30 October - 1 November 2026

    Just so people know, it's Supanova in Radelaide that weekend. Probably just means a higher likelihood of seeing people in Cosplay around and about.

    Ahoy Captain Minnie! Happy New Year!

    Sunday 28th Dec QF509 BNE-SYD 0715- 0950 We were meant to be in 6ABCD, but overnight had been moved to 4ABCD. Must have been the only WPs and most important VIPs on the flight! 🤣🤣 We got an Uber to the airport and SIL drove MIL, meeting us at the Qantas checkin. We went to the Premium checkin...

    Ahoy Captain Minnie! Happy New Year!

    Pre-booking At something like 90 days before the cruise, we could pre-book various experiences, such as the wine and coughtail tasting classes, Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique, and dining at Palo, the adults-only restaurant that costs extra. After doing some whisky, wine and champagne tasting classes...

    Ahoy Captain Minnie! Happy New Year!

    After booking the Grandma Squad's room in late Nov, getting us all checked in online, we started a weekly dinner with the Grandmas for debriefing and questions. We also started a group chat so I could eke information to them, unlike the Teen who tended to excitedly information dump on her...

    The view or two from my "office"

    Good Morning, Hobart. Later I will step on Tasmanian soil for the first time, leaving the NT as my last state/territory to visit. Taken me a while! On the Derwent river with Mr Katie, the Teen and MIL for what would have been FIL’s 86th birthday. He was named for this river.

    Checked baggage through on separate bookings

    I've read elsewhere (other threads on here), that the airside bus isn't operating at the moment, you need to catch a landside bus anyway. I'd consider the train, even though it costs money, should be faster than the bus at this time of year.

    Are you using AI / ChatGPT for travel planning and while travelling?

    I tried last year to get Copilot or ChatGPT to help me create a list of all Broadway shows that were on during our week in NY, and I wanted it to show what was showing each day at what time. It didn't work. The AI told me to go to the website (broadway.com?) that I was making my manual list...

    2025 travel plans

    Looks like I forgot to add our final trip of the year. Back in September, we decided to add a cruise to our family travels. As Disney's third season wasn't selling well (this upcoming Summer), there was a 30-35% off special, and that convinced us to jump on the 5 night NYE cruise. We fly down...
