You always look on the bright side of things don't you.

All optimism does is give you unrealistic high expectations.

Kpc adoption anyone??
Loves flying.
Prefers first three rows of planes.
Good oil on Alzheimer's .
Fits well in Hilton lounges around the world.
Knows about cricket grounds in England.

Your resume looks great kpc!

That J trip starts ex Perth so he goes to Sydney on QF. The run to London and back was about 191,000 kris miles and about $1,050 of taxes. It is all a very tight schedule due to specific sports matches then back to work the very next day.
The fact that Saver was available ex Sydney on the SQ A380 is pretty awesome and there is just under 2 hours layover at Singapore so you folks who live in Sydney seem to be very lucky.

What's wrong with Sydney? I moved here from Adelaide 17 years ago, and have not looked back....PS. That was a rhetorical question

 

[medhead]

It might be quicker to define what's right with Sydney.

I was wanting to set an alert from my Yahoo email to my mobile so I could get instant notification from Expert Flyer for flight alerts etc.

I'm certain I've done this before with Yahoo but I couldn't see where to do it when I searched for the feature so I sent their help desk an email to which I received the following response.

One minute they're saying they have this feature then the next they're saying they don't have it?

Strange question.. but do Y passengers wear pj's on overnight flights? I've never taken notice in all my Y flying however I recently flew LH F and am a big fan of their pj's.. thinking of packing for MEL-SIN tommorow night. Not too strange is it?
