Flight to MEL gone tech with no ETD yet

On the upside, I may still be here for those who need guesting later

Wish they'd open the QP bar though

We're already on the cider here.

Bar unlocked

Engineer en route from mainland to fix "screen that has gone blank in the coughpit and can't be rebooted". ETA 1450.

New departure time 1530. Food vouchers up to $15.

I will have worked hard for LTG when I get it.

Update: they have moved the bags off the tarmac where they sat in the sun for 2 hours.

There's pax who are going to miss international flights. Bad!

Any update on your flight?

 

[Anna]

The engineer should arrive in 20 mins. ETD 15.30 officially. Fingers crossed.

On the departures board it has said "go to gate" since 10am :shock:

 

[Anna]

Boarding !!

3 of us could have have been guested into the QP, but 'someone' was a little too honest.

Sitting in HBA QP with a few others (including Rod Marsh). Unfortunately very crowded and unable to exceed guest limit so JessicaTam and Blackcat20 (flying VA) are in the wilds of the terminal.
This has been a great weekend and most effusive thanks especially to JessicaTam but also to Penegal and jdevereux3 and anyone else involved with organising it. It was great to catch up with faces both old and new.
Thanks also to VRC for the ride to the airport - much appreciated.
