Thumbs up

Well looks like the Scheduling Gods have smiled on me for once. For the first time in a very long time I am booked on the red-eye from PER-SYD on April 5 and what's more it is in J so the 743 is looking very good to me.

This is part of a fairly brutal day on the 5th which definitely will break my record (although I am quite sure not some of the road warriors on this board) for most distance in one 40hr day (Well it's Apr 5 00:15 when I leave Perth and Apr 5 22:13 when I arrive in YUY)

PER-SYD-LAX-YYZ-YUL-YUY. (12,326 Miles = 19,837km's). Then they suggested I grab a car and drive for 2 hours at midnight. A quick thought for Duty of Care and the need to abide by an OH&S policy and I've scored 10 hours in a Comfort Inn.

The really good news is that on the return I've managed to snag the 743 on the SYD-PER flight on Apr 11 08:25.
