  • Virgin Australia eyes ‘pets on planes’ trial

    Sep 23, 2024, 01:22 PM

    I just flew LAS LAX on American Airlines on Tuesday - I saw 3 dogs on boarding getting on. Otherwise, you wouldn't have even noticed they were there. I imagine my 5kg cavoodle would be the same. Bring it on. Take her to see her grandparents in VIC!!!

  • Qantas eyes 787 flights for Brisbane-Los Angeles

    Jul 17, 2024, 07:11 AM

    Bris based here- flew LAX BNE on the 330. Its not as bad as everyone makes out. Economy on the 787 is super tight/cramped. So have chosen to fly via SYD on my next 3 trips to the US *shrugs*

  • New Sydney Airport scanners let you leave laptops, liquids in your bag

    This is actually a pain in the a**!! The computer decides if it finds anything it doesn't like (not a human) and its automatically deferred onto a secondary belt that queues up. Last time in Sydney it got me, I was held up for 10 mins while old mate security worker was arguing with the bag before...

    They shouldn’t have scraped the last 2 aircraft. They should’ve kept them. Fatal error

  • When Did QF start flying to Las Vegas from Brisbane

    Flight centre staff just had their annual awards trip to Vegas. They often charter Qantas and Air NZ aircraft for these trips

  • QF trans-tasman ex BNE or MEL

    Mar 07, 2022, 02:02 PM

    Any insider knowledge on when QF resume BNE and/or MEL to Auckland? I have a deep dislike of Air NZ (current only airline ex BNE) and it would be a lot for my older Mum to transfer in Sydney. She'd get lost and end up in Penrith or Campbelltown knowing her, hah.
