Let me know if you want to catch up for a drink. I should be in SYD ~17:30 and generally hang around an hour or so for a drink or two. I think I still have your mobile but not sure if you still have mine....

Yeah, that should work. I try to head over to DOM terminals around 6ish. I'm sure I'd still have your number in my calls list: will add to contacts. We can pick either DJ or QF J Lounge at the time. :?:

I did not see that you are flying DJ on the day. I am not sure if I am going to have checked luggage so T2 on arrival could be out of the question.

We can work something out closer to the day....

Hi All

New here, please be patient with me.
Transiting through Sydney on 30Mar12
Arrive 6.15am JQ989 T2
Dep 11.15am QF107 T1

May I ask if anyone is able to guest me in? As I am redeye-ing overnight from Perth and have flight to JFK to look forward but really don't want to go on that flight looking like death warmed over..

If no one is able to, any tips on where I can freshen up?

Apologies if this is not the thread to post this on, and thanks in advance for any advice rendered.

Wife and I are NB/PS and QC, so we can guest where applicable. Looked at jb747's schedule and we'll miss him by two days. Chose MEL so we could take the A380 there and back.

 

[Flashback]

Disregard all flights I had listed for March, these have all now been cancelled and hopefully Travel Insurance will cover any losses.
