[Grogan]

All sorted, a big thanks to red roo and Chelsea.
So anyone up for Monday night drinks?

Have the eticket as well... ,

No way to manage bookings though so no seat selection and no OLCI.

What time do you get to MEL? I am coming in from HBA at 1240 today and would be happy to catch up at the airport.

Call Qantas with the booking ref and ask for seat assignment, after checking seat availability of Expert flyer first. Then it will appear in your MMB

Have done, exit rows both ways (my preferred choice as I'm pretty tall, so it gives me some leg room)
She also added my FF number in so it's also in MMB...

Can't do OLCI, but that said I've found once seats have been allocated, they rarely change.

Updated thread to here. Welcome aboard Pfisher004 (changed from SYD function) and all we need are the PER attendees flight details

T - 24.5 hours. Lots of work to do today

 

[Flying Fox]

Do ppl think that there is an expectation that we have to ask the questions that we submitted to Red Roo if they are not answered during the presentation?

I only ask because I will have to go to my sent items and refresh my memory about what I submitted as my questions?

JessicaTam, where and when should we meet tomorrow?

I will head for Degraves St off Flinders St about 10ish. I will look for a cafe with a bit of room for a dozen or so and settle in. I will post as soon as I have found somewhere. If anyone gets there before me, they can do the same. Degraves St is only a short walk from Rockpool - maybe 5-10 minutes.

Aargh, what to wear?!?

Here comes another one of my outrageous suggestions - how about the MEL J lounge?

I arrive at 9:20am tomorrow. I figure if 3 or 4 share a cab then it will be cheaper than the skybus. Does anyone want to share a cab?

The ADL attendees (you and Flying Fox) arrive at 9.20am, then us 4 from BNE at 9.35am (QF609). You two could meet us off the plane and the 6 of us share a Maxi to DeGraves on Flinders Street (I'm trying to see 1 client in MEL, so you could drop me at/near Rialto North or I could walk from Flinders).

The CBR contingent arrive at 10.20pm, so you could wait for them if you want and I'll get Skybus. I'm presuming the PER contingent will have arrived today (tonight).

Unfortunately for me I'll be coming directly from work, so will be heading directly to Rockpool just before 12, otherwise would have loved to have caught up before hand, also means once the lunch is finished I have to go back to work, boooo.... but still looking forward to the lunch.
btw- check your PM's sent you my number.

[pandaflyer]

interested how many of you have met each other before ? bound by a love of travel (or flying).
wondering who travels mainly for work, and who because they love seeing the world (im mainly the later).
