The view from my "office"

We used our Amex $450 to fly over as code share QF on NF metal in Y as separate tickets, and then used QF points for return journey again as codeshare Y on NF metal, but this time they put us in exit row seats at no cost - perhaps due to my WP.
Both flights on time, no dramas, basic service, sounded like Aussie pilots, reasonable plane.
It is only about a 3 - 3.5 hour flight, no inflight entertainment, so just scrapped in on our 4 hour cap on travelling in Y if J not available.
Would I do it again - yes.
Have I had worst flights - yes.
It's not QF or EK, and Port Vila airport is very basic, but as a destination for a break away, it fits the bill.
Only downfall is the 7am departure from PV. If you can get a later flight, is saves the 4am alarm, tho the sunrise was nice.

Thanks for that great summary @Bindibuys
Pretty much like MEL-CNS!
Will seriously consider for Mr Flyfrequently's "*0" birthday.

In September, to Melbourne looks like they now have a 1220 flight departure.
Thanks again.

The shanks pony office view on TI.


Across the road from the Quetta church above was the largest supermarket. I thought I may be able to get a few QFF points when I saw this.


But I walked through the door with the manager who dashed my hopes by saying that it is only because they use the Woolworth’s buying system that they have those bags.

@Steady , love your photos. We will be visiting in the area next May. Putting Lutrell Arms on our list, did you stay there? All the villages look lovely.

 

[Steady]

Yes, tonight is our 2nd and last night at the Luttrell Arms, a lovely place with good food - I would definitely stay here again. We are in the room pictured on the right. I’ve been here meeting a relative who lives nearby and they recommended and booked us in here.

His/Her Majesty's Customs?

Beautiful old hotel @Steady your room is very fancy. Love the photos and surrounds.
Trying to work a stay there in our itinerary. Thanks for the recommendation.

His/Her Majesty's Customs?

From the 1800s when the English moved in there was a Custom's house. The first was a wooden building opened in 1885. The current building was opened in 1938 beside the old Custom's house which was demolished when the new building opened. It now has a new tenant.

Seems to be more sightings lately in Port Macquarie

The office is off Cape Melville. A narrow channel with a large reef on the other side.

Before our trip to the big smoke today, I caught the local Flexiride bus - for no particular reason!
Just me and the bus driver (you get picked up at your house!)

I was thinking of any negatives this morning and one could be the shower over a bath and the stairs but all in it’s a great place

Perhaps they will start giving an AFF discount.

A view from and of a BnB near OSL. I “decided” to extend my 2 hour transit to 26 hours.
