    QF Sale (to LAX and others)

    I saw Syd - LAX return in F for $15k during July - regular $20k. Thought that was a reasonable saving.

    Booking flights NYC to Halifax, Canada.

    No the fares aren't cheap. I have been watching since October last year to get an idea for 2015. The cheapest I had seen was around $500 per person (so would would mean $2k for the family). I will continue to watch - who knows I might end up going via somewhere if the price differential make its...

    Booking flights NYC to Halifax, Canada.

    NinnyPoo, I am looking at doing the same thing myself. United and Delta both fly direct to Halifax whilst AC, US & AA go via various stops. Depends on whether you want a direct flight or not. Direct is about 2 hours each way otherwise it's 4 hours going via somewhere. I plan on using Delta to...

    Fly ahead - with a fee

    Received my first fly ahead on Wednesday from BNE-SYD. Add to that only having to wait 3 minutes for a train and the train being an express one, looks like all the planets aligned for me. Got home more than an hour earlier than I would have without the fly ahead. It was most enjoyable.:p

    Snacks for every passenger on VA

    Flew Syd-Mel-Syd over the weekend. Snack to Mel was carrot & ginger muffin and a honey & something muesli finger (not big enough to classify as a bar). On the way back it was Carmen corn chips with spicy tomato salsa. Both snacks were very tasty.

    Re: Nice Wines I have DranK Recently - Red or White Before Christmas we had a 1998 Metala (bought in 1999) which I must admit I was worried about as my storage isn't what it should be but geez it was nice.

    Company keeps SC and FF points

    banana0692, If they have set up a second account in your name, then they have probably done that with each employee that travels. Whilst I understand your reluctance to make waves with your employer as you like the place, as most people have commented here, it is against the VA T&C's to have...
