Two Year Anniversary
Just to bring back some Ansett relevance to the Ansett forum, today is the second anniversary of the Ansett collapse.
Friday 14th September 2001.
How many of our former Ansett forum frequenters are still around today?

Me too, or is that me two?
One can only dream that one day those Ansett points will be of value.
Of course, I'm an optimist and still hoping to find England v South Africa Rugby tickets http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/wink.gif

Two years later, still missing Ansett. Ordered some coffee mugs and other supplies from the company that closed them out.. I still start my day with coffee in an Ansett mug.

In the States, the shutdown was utterly overshadowed by 9/11. It got virtually no press coverage at all, which was a shame.
