AC has eliminated its award sales for the new benefits year, though promised we'd get them sporadicallyr. This is considered by AC to be yet another "improvement" to its Aeroplan program. If I do have to pay full miles [100 in J or 140 in F], I will likely try to book NH ex-JFK in F into NRT, then down to SYD via SIN on SQ, though I may have to opt for NZ ex-SIN. I would like to sample some of the more exotic STAR front cabins, but can always get a J seat on AC, even at the last minute as an SE, one benefit they have not yet removed from us. So I am still quite likely, and would certainly do the Tarmac Tour, which I missed last time I was down there.

Count me in Sat May 22 & Sun 23 (MEl-SYD return on a $115 red e-deal, but only 20 SC's)
Does the group plan to go on the Air side Tour ? Anyone making a group booking?

Those that have NOT posted their thoughts either way on this option please do so as I can then get an idea of number so that we might get (a) the discounted rate per person and (b) our own personal FT tour bus of the airport.

We will do whatever you tell us to do, as long as it is vegetarian!
The tour sounds very interesting. I know Hunki would love to sail if that is an option.</font>
