Thanks all for an amazing weekend - exceeded my expectations in every capacity. Will definitely be doing this again, and I can't wait until the dinner in December! Hope to see some of you there

I'm gold at this stage, just working out flights. Hoping to be there as one of @Sprucegoose 's non imaginary friends!

I'm still in the air but will flick you a message when I land and find you

I'll make sure not to recline my seat into you guys then :p

QF827 red eye DRW-BNE Predeparture drink of juice or sparkling water offered in a glass - first time I'd seen this on a domestic flight that wasn't a widebody. Only option was chicken and leek pie with bread. Unfortunately no dessert, just the usual cocoa black choc. The pie was surprisingly...

And the marathon journey begins... Looking forward to seeing @boxo @Matt_01 and @Fifa in the Mel lounge in 12hrs Also, sunrise over Brisbane!

@boxo FWIW if you're 3g you'll probs get the last pick of food, take 1f or 2 if you have a bag you want access to Incidentally this is what I see for qf 1547 so if you'd like, I'm happy to change and sit next to you for the short hop across the ditch, otherwise I'll just hope that the shadow...

Me too!

My 2c as a incredibly infrequent VA flyer: The last (and first) time I flew VA was a short hop from from MEL-SYD earlier this year. I paid at the kiosk for an upgrade (from memory ~$200 on a work booked flex ticket, but as I'd never flown VA I thought I'd try it out), and I was seated in 1A...

Just out of interest, what's the SC earn on that route? And was it by choice?

I'll be in territory formal (with a jacket because everywhere is bloody cold compared to the NT)

Woo triple upgrade! Controversial opinion - I put in upgrades for all my flights, domestic and international, if I can't get a J award ticket. I don't remember all my J class experiences but I definitely remember the Y ones, particularly the red eyes... In the immortal words of Leonardo da...

^ this is gold @anchew , in answer to your question, I always have no more than 2 active cards and I close my old one before applying for the new one and list only the card I have active in my application. As I experienced today with Bankwest, the system can be slow - they were asking me about...

Yes

Happy to share but we may need to get a maxi taxi. Can also get 2 X pax in the lounge if needed - beats the club dungeon...

Definitely do Nara deer park but watch out, the deer can be quite aggressive! They will bite the biscuits out of your hand or pocket before you feed them. Also, just catching up on this trip, - I thought Qantas was offering a Japanese style menu on its flights to Tokyo, was that an option on...

Thanks all! From the sounds of it it's only available out of Sydney.

For those who fly domestic routes often in J, does anyone know what happened to the really nice cakes they used to serve instead of the ice cream for dessert? In the last 6 months I've flown from to DRW/ASP/BNE/MEL/SYD/PER/ADL/CNS/CBR on a variety of platforms and across different meal times...
