Adelaide Get Together - Saturday 6th April

[JessicaTam]

Anyone on VA231 to ADL today?

No, but happy to guest you into the QF J lounge for an hour or so if you don’t mind the double security shuffle.

 

[Buzzard]

And I have now been advised that Miss L is unlikely to attend as it is a school night for her. Hopefully the pub will be flexible with the numbers, @Buzzard.

Not a problem at all. One reason why the garden was chosen over the restaurant.

I was in the VA Lounge so had to do the double shuffle anyway as I came from CBR. What a shambles.
First VA flight. 2 more to go until I get home.

We may stop by for a quick and cheeky bevvie before dinner.

It looks like I may be able to offer an after-party locale. HH ADL have given me my first ever suite upgrade!

I grabbed it as part of OLCI and took a screen shot, so it had better stick.

Hope it sticks!
I was “upgraded” from King Deluxe to King Executive (am HH Diamond). Found it odd at checkin that I was asked if it was my first stay - we were here in Jan!!

We’re currently making the Exec Lounge look ... well, not messy, just populated.

Booked in the name Buzz, is a table in the garden. The garden was chosen over the restaurant because it allows extras to pop in for a drink and be able to join us. Potentially we could cater for a couple of late comers too. In the garden we also have a more flexible menu whereas the restaurant is more formal.
The evening is PAYG.
look forward to meeting you all on Saturday at 7:00pm.

Two all nighters so I will stumble down and make an appearance sometime after 7.30 probs

but don’t hold much hope of staying up a 3rd night in a row !

Challenge accepted!

That has been the norm for me. This will be the second ‘proper’ upgrade in ADL - the previous was a junior suite.

 

[Buzzard]

We have arrived and our table is being prepared.

 

[Matt_01]

On our way, no TR we are on a bus, bus without wings.

 

[Bundy Bear]

Will stop by for a drink

Everyone eating

 

[Buzzard]

Some of us have eaten well, some are obviously on a diet.

It makes it worthwhile organising when you get a good turnout.

It was a great dinner and good to catch up with everyone.

For those in the lounge may have heard me comment ‘I’ll have to leave soon to beat all those SG putting their luggage in the R4/5 overhead bins before heading to the back of the plane’ then boarding was called.

Got on the plane and what did I find

Did you find out where that pax sat?

Did you find out where that pax sat?

Nup, no one near by asked for it or made an effort to retrieve it while I was still on board. On boarding there was no one in R4 and I cannot recall if there was anyone in R5 but I usually do not pay to much attention to others .
