Unemployed again + free commercial flights

[Admin]

Today is my last day here in Sydney, actually it is tomorrow (Fri 3rd Aug) but I have eyes issue, getting laser in my good eye so the fluid can get back into it and have a detached retina in my bad eye so tomorrow seeing the specialist to do the laser and another one about the detached retina. So leaving Sydney to go back home and join the ranks of unemplyed again but hoping it won't be too long to get my next contract...if you know of any in the PMO space please let me know.

 

Unfortunately I was expecting an extension so I have flights booked and paid for Melb to Syd every Monday and Sydney to Melb every Friday till the first week of Sept, plus a Syd to Melb this Tuesday. Rather than let them go to waste if anyone wants any of them I can check in to them now and pass the boarding pass on to you...each one has a row 1 seat with extra leg room. Any donations though are gratefully accepted

Sounds like a good way for a Sydneyite to get away for a dirty weekend in Melbourne, but I'd hate to book activities for the weekend to have them delayed or cancelled at the boarding gate.

I've just booked a flight to visit my daughter in Reservoir next weekend.

 

Could have been a good opportunity to keep the "Bloody JetStar" thread going.

Reservoir isn't far from me in Watsonia...I think that now that I am not on their aircraft they will start running to schedule again

Boring if things go on time or as planned. Add a bit of uncertainty/ excitement to your life Take up Ian's offer. Don't miss out. Only one can win. Nev

Maybe we need a news thread, something along the lines of JetStar efficiency now elevated to 12% as Ian's not flying with them.

Ian,. . I dunno what you do to earn your Regular daily bread, ( In between operating these two sites for the enjoyment of others. . .. ) but whatever it is, Get well soon mate.

I was thinking JetStar must have had it in for the poor fellah, but then I remembered that they stuffed me up big time on 3 out of 4 trips with them, so now I wouldn't touch them with a 10ft barge pole.

 

In my view they are a total disgrace, which reflects badly on the good name of Qantas.

 

Tigerair used to be Australia's worst airline, but since being bought by Virgin, they have really turned things around, and for a discount airline I have found their service quite acceptable on numerous occasions.

Jetstar top the table:

 

Chart of the day: What are the chances your plane will leave on time?

Seems like a convenient sorting of the facts to me. The selected destinations do not relate.

Might relate to somebody thinking of flying to BNE from PER
