    On Virgin's 737s it seems there is consensus row 3 is better than the exit rows. What do the crowd think of row 4/5 vs the exit rows?

    Public Transport to our airports - what's cheapest?

    If you'd like to save a buck you could do what I did last week. Train to Broadmeadows Station then catch the 901 bus to the airport. Costs $5.30 rather than the $20ish of the skybus if you have enough time

    What was your most memorable in-flight meal?

    Qantas business flying SIN-LHR on the A380. Overall a very memorable experience, but my most memorable meal was a lamb sandwich that was part of the on demand menu. The sandwich was quite well executed, and potentially the most gourmet sandwich of my lifetime.

    Fraud on Velocity Frequent Flyer accounts
