I hope I'm not too late to the party.

Finally got the approval from the Ministry for Finance and worked out how my uni timetable will work and can attend.

I am a QF SG.

Looking forward to attending my first AGM, unfortunately I won't be able to do lunch unless I plan on waking up at 3am...

edit: whoops forgot to include flight details

CNS-BNE QF709 dep 1010 arr 1220

BNE-CNS JQ942 dep 2135 arr 2335

It's ok I'll do the drinking for you. :P



And I knew I should've waited... two days after I book my flights QF have a sale and the tickets drop by $50.... No QF I will not love you, regardless of what your sale says.

RichardMEL, there are a few people flying in between 1250 and 1410 and not attending lunch, so I'm guessing they may be in the QP quite early. As for the BCers, I think we start drifting off to the airport sometime between 1400 and 1430 so should be in full swing come 1500.

If there is an 'official' start time I do not know it. I know a list of names is given to QF by QF WP, but I've never had my name ticked off a list or anything like that - just front at the desk (usually a carload of us) and say we are attending AFF meeting, and it is 'go right on in'. Could be a YMMV, but that is what has happened with me in the past.

Thanks QF WP

Thanks for organizing it all again. Hope everyone has a great time.
I am sorry I won't be able to make it as I am still away at the moment.
Kind wishes. John.

I'm looking forward - seems like a pretty big turnout, and the QF involvement is great.

As for me I'm aiming to turn up at the QP 1400 or so. I can get in with my BP and status, so no issue. I was thinking to just go to the AGM "corner" and hang around.

Guess QF WP will give us more info before Sat - or I hope so anyway

I think I'll wander in to the J lounge when I first get there and go around to the AGM corner from about 14:00.

Yes, I had considered that option too. I may be lunching elsewhere first, so that means the J lounge (for me) is not so important, but if not, I'd go to the J side as the food would possibly be better (let's not start a discourse on quality or otherwise of lounge food ).

I have a feeling the FT group will be fairly easy to pick out and hopefully it's a slowish afternoon in the QC

Hopefully not like the other day I was in the J lounge and there was an unfortunate mechanical on an Antartic charter that had a large group in there for about 4 hours. The cheers when boarding was announced was something to behold though ....

Okay, list is about to be put together of attendees names to go to Regional GM for him to put in a list on the door. Yes, saying you're attending the "Flyertalk meeting" may also work

If I don't know your real name, a PM to me will work a treat [kiwia1, moa999 and caviack]

^ Probably will miss you at NTL though so will hang around the J lounge a little longer and wander round to the corner closer to the time the lunchers get back.

I'll look for you. I'll have a maroon carry on with green/orange stickers on the sides and an orange tag on the handle with "This is NOT your bag" printed on it.
