It was 9am Aussie time so no booze was consumed. I did wake up at 4:30am on the plane though... Such a change compared to the LAX T7 UA "lounge" just hours before.
I mainly use mine on Alaska - which won't do you much good living in the East...but if you can get out to SEA or LAX cheaply, 25K will get you to Hawaii and back! Best value I've gotten out of them!

I've heard a lot of people in the East get good value using their Avios on AA short haul flights...
