Commiseration event - 1 year after the loss of anytime access.

[Simo]

I might be good for that date...

 

[JohnK]

Can't make it as I will be arriving back from Thailand the day before.

Beats using my usual excuse!

But you'll be in SYD!

Fly MEL up to BNE on the Sunday!

 

[trippin_the_rift]

Wasn't that a date the fiancée
would hold sacred????

She should come along!!

I've been informed of special plans/dates and 28th is safe to go jetting around the country

 

[Danger]

If I was to take the midnight flight from Perth and arrive at 6am Saturday, how confident are we I could get an early check-in for the JQ flight to Melbourne? I'm thinking something around 7am!

I was thinking the same thing...

I will be flying down from BNE.

I am not sure if will fly home on the Sat night or stay in Melb for the dinner.

Does anyone want to do a J lounge afternoon in Melb then fly home...

 

[JohnK]

But you'll be in SYD!

Fly MEL up to BNE on the Sunday!

I have a VA flight SYD-BNE already booked for the Sunday.

 

[awilcockson]

So I'm looking at flights, is it safe to assume that there will actually be something planned for Saturday night?

Just so I know if I should book a return on Saturday night or Sunday?

 

[serfty]

I have a VA flight SYD-BNE already booked for the Sunday.

Even better - book a MEL-SYD flight for Sunday morning!

 

[penegal]

Tentative.

I will be returning from Sri Lanka on either Saturday or Sunday morning, so if its Saturday I should make it, Sunday I won't...

 

[straitman]

A definite maybe here.

 

[Bundy Bear]

There is a 2 for 1 business class sale on Qantas which I am going to take advantage of, available today only.

Something worth considering.

Its been suggested that it might be appropriate to commiserate the loss of anytime access with another F lounge run on the last weekend in January (Jan 28), followed by a social evening/dinner in Melbourne! There are some pretty good positioning fares on sale from JQ and QF this morning, hopefully Tiger and DJ will follow!

I will be passing - sorry but I will be in Shanghai.
Have fun.

 

[Mal]

I'm now in.

Flying down on QF501 (the 5am nasty flight), overnighting in MEL and back afternoon on Sun.

 

[stark]

Can put me down as a maybe at this stage.

 

[medhead]

I'm leaning toward a no. Visited the F lounge twice in 2011 last time in October. Jan feels like it is too soon. Plus daughters birthday the next day.

All booked courtesy of the business class companion sale.

Looking forward to 30th birthday celebrations in F Lounge, Red Roo

Note the Oz Open tennis woman's final is that evening with the men's singles final the next day.

I was going to confirm earlier today but my time was not my own.

Now I am confirmed for the flight.

 

[anat0l]

Note the Oz Open tennis woman's final is that evening with the mens final the next day.

Means that accommodation might be a premium. Or expensive. Or both.

Time to wheel out points, perhaps.
