Seems like AKL was the AFF place to be this weekend - I certainly would have if not for booking an MR for this week last year.
Those guys seem to have enjoyed it much as I reckon I would have.
Soon to take my 13th Flight since Wednesday. By the time I am back in MEL it represents 630 SC's, 34K earned QFF points, 485 SP's and 275
irpeso's.
All are useful for my travel -
- the SC's have re-qualified me WP,
- the QFF points are half of the nett points cost of a transpacific JASA
- the SP's leave me a hop short of two year GE qualification
- the
are useful to confirm some upgrades before NZ destroy most of the remaining usefulness of the
irpoints program on May 30th.
Last night the LAX T4 F/L had BBQ baby back ribs with spicy rice and steamed beans - nice if not messy (beards don't help :-|).
This evening the LAX T2 NZ 'international lounge' has 'chicken' noodle soup and either vegetarian or beef lasagna as its hot 'food' option - coming out in 3 kg foil trays.
At least the cheese and the salads are nicer ...
Tonight I get to try NZ premium product transpacific.
