    I haven't flown on this route, but I am curious to know what your objection to Norfolk Air might be. (Disclosure: I work for the Government of Nauru. Norfolk Air is operated by Our Airline, the national carrier of Nauru.)

    Jetta for excess baggage ?

    Hi, and welcome to AFF. I have used Jetta twice, from Brisbane to Kiribati in the Central Pacific. Apart from them having never heard of Kiribati, I found them great to deal with. On both occasions they showed up when they said they would, and the bags and boxes arrived within the estimated...

    Will I get Cadbury's into the USA?

As I went through security I was told that I would have to surrender the eggs. When I pointed out that chocolate was a solid, I was told...

    Intl to Dom transfer times in NZ

    On a flight into CHC from NAN in 2006 I queued for over an hour to get through immigration (with only one other flight than ours). While other times have not been as bad, I got a distinct sense that this was normal for CHC. Don't take the chance.

    Upgrading - Sydney - Fiji-HNL-LAX Qantas Tips Please

    Your SYD-NAN and NAN-HNL flights will be on FJ (Air Pacific) planes (747-400 for SYD-NAN and 737-700 or -800 for NAN-HNL). The NAN-HNL sector is definitely codeshared by QF (QF3841). You should be aware that two of the three weekly NAN-HNL flights are non-stop, while the Wednesday flight stops...
