Only for the season, back again end of the year. The railfans were out....

Back now and have some photos downloaded. Yes, the main reason for the trip was to ride the last Winter Park Express from Denver, up and back in a day and to celebrate Conductor Brad's retirement from the train which he helped instigate. PBS was there to document the last day...

I think the cheap and cheerful is pretty much gone, was great back in the 1990's though. I'd look at Best Western or Days Inn, plenty of and not in the high price bracket. Myself, I stay at Hilton's many chain brands.

The fact you mention hostels tells me you are looking for cheap accommodation?

Geez, that’s a slap in the face to a customer. How are Rex’s sophisticated lounges and frequent flyer program going, oh the same as some of its passengers I’d say.

Who is your bank if you don’t mind me asking. The money is gone I’m afraid.

With more than $116 owing and nothing in the kitty I’d request the chargeback. Be a squeaky wheel about it. All that can happen is you get a no.

As they should probably, being an airline owned by a foreign Govt.

Was the airports trying to secure the aircraft after all. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2024-05-09/bonza-aircraft-leave-australia-after-fleet-repossessed/103824084

Even at $50 per booking, that's $2.9M which I would think has already been spent. Let's hope they were paying the staff super fund payments.

Even points to New York and buy a ticket from there. Travelling via the US only adds a couple of hours.

Option 1. But I wouldn’t be upset with Option 2 if it fell that way.

Agree, but that 10 or 20 per week over the years works if you can refrain from touching it. I also don’t know how say a forklift driver in western Sydney with a couple of kids does it. They’re better than me. 1714814069 Except you could hold directors to account.

I think the issue is these people need to go to the supermarket now and pay their rent now not in 2025. I think assuming there will be anything to pay staff is probably dreaming considering Bonza didn’t pay the previous pay period, did they pay the staff the super payments for the 12 months...

So why wouldn't they have left? It's money rusting at the moment.

I think the aircraft owners regardless of what they think they've done with concrete blocks is now bound by the administrators, they call the shots. Once they are satisfied there is no future the equipment owners can take their gear and depart.

Administrator or Airport making sure they don’t leave until all monies paid, the administrator will need to pay or do a deal before they get released. Wonder if we’ll seeing another coughpit Casual on YouTube of the next flight of Bonza liveried planes.

US can be hit and miss, I do leave a tip sometimes in the bathroom and get extra goodies left for me. I haven’t tried the leaving it under a pillow but may do if service is ok. Leaving coins unless you’re checking out is a waste of time as they don’t get taken. If I’m sitting at a bar on a...

I'm appless so would have never been able to buy a ticket, maybe I wasn't this target customer hence not needing my money.

QF have a Bonza passenger help team standing by......
