I think that's a half bugger and half hopeful button given it means you're one spot closer to attending.

Actually Aus_Mal and I cross paths so rarely it was a whole-hearted 'bugger'.

so close.
I'm just hopeful that QF allows photos at wherever the tour is so those that miss out can live somewhat vicariously
(the BNE hanger tour a couple of years ago had restrictions on photos going on social media)

Yes, photos allowed in most areas, but always the chance that we may not be able to due to commercial sensitivities (or operation issues).

Well if anybody drops out (not getting me their ID by Wed), then you could be in. You'd get a PM from me with details and would need your updated DL emailed to me (copy I have from 2015 tour has expired). Never say never.

Thanks QF WP for organising this annual event and for reminding me to book flights. Revenue fares are, as expected, too high by now so Avios burn it is.

My flights:
QF515 landing 11:10 Saturday
QF459 departing 18:00 Saturday
