I sent out PMs to everyone on the yes and maybe lists, but I don't think everyone received it. If you didn't, PM me and I'll reply. Otherwise, booking is for Kate at 5.30.
 
Is it too late to become a late starter for this one? I didn't even know there were drinks going on until an hour ago (blame penegal ​for that, all his fault!)

Nope, not too late. I added a couple of spare spots to the booking just in case. See you tomorrow :D
 
To all the attendees, wish you a great night.
I would have enjoyed your company, but I'm seeking the warmth of MIA today. ;)
 
Oh no! Fingers crossed.

Good news and bad news... I managed to change my flight OOL-ADL-MEL so that I arrive at 5 pm instead of 6 pm tonight and can make it for the dinner and drinks. This morning I happened to check the flight status and found out my flights have been cancelled (the same aircraft was originally scheduled to operate MEL-ADL-OOL-ADL-MEL) well before I received any email/SMS notification from the airline. In the end I asked to be rebooked on BNE-ADL-MEL which arrives at 6 pm again (the 5 pm flight is cancelled).

To make things worse, the BNE-ADL flight has been delayed 1 hour due to late arrival of aircraft from ISA, but I'm hoping I can still make the connecting flight to MEL. I will text you if it gets in early.

Not a good way to end my trip or start the day!

Looks like I still won't get to experience OOL airport after all...

Thanks. Lucky I booked for a few extra!

I've rebooked yet again to an earlier BNE-MEL direct flight and will claim ORC (which I asked about at first but was given the wrong info until I called Velocity at the lounge). I hope my luggage makes it though since I had already checked in for the BNE-ADL-MEL flights.

The story continues...
