Ok, slight hiccup with my travel plans. Have to head to Australia tomorrow night and spend Mon and Tues in Darwin (dont ask). Then horror of horrors, the only way I can get to NRT in time is to fly to Japan via Cairns on something called Jetstar. I will need a drink and a lie down by the time I arrive - but I am now arriving a day earlier (ie Wed night 2000) rather than 1600 Thursday.

What!!!!! No Dom? No lie flats? No 1200 channels of IFE??? I'm outraged. Someone told me they serve a meal in a box - even in StarClass. I'm off to write a strongly worded letter to that wee Irishman, Alan Joyce.
