Another seamless experience out of MEL last night. It really has sped up boarding as well as giving premium pax a more reliable priority boarding experience. A couple of computer says no send backs of naughty ‘gate lice’ for amusement :) Flying out of SYD today will see how the rollout has...

Lots of news on this and then a seamless segue to the court case v the 737 MAX which is coming to a head right now!

Some pics from the first Hobart touchdown from Hobart Airports LI page:

As long as the point bonuses don’t match 😉

Private jet. Off you go!

Ah I really miss The Qantas Source website that was fantastic

OT I just have a feeling we are all going to be watching a 4 corners about that float and business at some point… something doesn’t smell right and it’s not their awful food 😉 On topic - it will be interesting to see how all the airlines including Virgin get through the winter domestic season...

Hopefully Jayne takes ‘Wonderful’ out in her handbag when she takes the one way walk off the plank ;)

First experience this AM out of MEL (travelling by myself). Worked very well, early AM flight so mostly corporates but was enforced and saw a couple of computer says no beeps that sent people back to wait!

Tax tax tax or lack thereof. So many of the companies I work with have huge ‘random’ manufacturing operations in Ireland as well, because of the ‘structuring advantages’ it provides. Even with large shipping and logistic costs it still works out cheaper.

That’s all commercial news needs! Slam dunk 😂 Ouch. The Trans Tasman carnage continues.

For now…

Agree. And eftpos? 🦖… For some who have more time on their hands I can see it being worth the leg work but certainly not for others!

Qantas have been boarding 30 mins PTD on many flights for many months now, have also noticed. Clearly doing soft trials.

Happens in so many airports. SFO is the same, Waiting in the queue I saw 3 different signs saying completely contradictory things, by the time I got to the agent I just said ‘tell me what you want me to do please’ 😦

I thought there was a capital raise and dilution of shareholders though….

Have had a couple of these complimentary upgrades beep through in the last 3 months. One was BNE-MEL (737) Other one was MEL-AKL (737) The first one I got beeped at the gate and the second one I noticed in the app when I went to check in.

Actually sounds like quite a sedate Virgin flight from Perth… 😜 Certainly some interesting personalities on those flights!
