Well after stating I was platinum a few months ago, I thought I had better book some flights:
May 23 MEL-ADL QF675
May 23 ADL-ASP QF723
May 25 ASP-SYD QF791*
May 25 SYD-MEL QF451
I am arriving in ASP at 1205. Am I able to get a seat on the transfer bus to the DT as ozbeachbabe has listed in Friday's events?
I would like to participate in Friday and Saturday's events, including the dinners. Is there a payment page?
Gosh, all these questions from a FT newbie!
I am booked into the ASP DT 23-25 May.
*Share a cab to the airport JohnK?
May 23 MEL-ADL QF675
May 23 ADL-ASP QF723
May 25 ASP-SYD QF791*

Not many Aussie FTer's will admit to flying TT. Hope it all goes well for you. Check carefully all the ticket t&c's particularly carry on and checked baggageYou will be first into Alice ^

Do I win a prize for 'first to arrive'?
And will we see you in ASP/AYQ?

Don't worry Boxo, you aren't alone. I was looking to book QF790 on 5/23 but no award availability...it said there was but when I logged into my account, it went away. I was looking at TT292 for a while and wasn't sure...but after seeing the 30% sale I pulled the trigger and now I'm on that flight as well. I wanted the extra legroom and the total was quite reasonable even after the premium seat fee. Feel free to mark me down as Platinum on the list instead of gold!
