Righto, probably worth upping the bid from $150 then. But as you can prob tell by some of the posts in this thread previously...it's all in the way you hold your tongue!

Also loadings in BP are obviously important, so if some kind FT soul checks the BP seat availability for you on ExpertFlyer - this will give you an idea of how many seats are available. If the Parnell Mens Masters Tennis Club have their annual outing that weekend...then you'll prob be out of luck

ASJOHNSTONE makes a good point though...for a 3.5 hour flight, is it really worth it? While you'll have all the space in the world up front, and a good amount of drinks/ food...you could have a serious bash at some aussie hospitality for your $$ (assuming you're not buring off some APD of course).

Good luck^

oh, and you will get Koru access if bid successful prior to check in.
