Thanks for the reminder Hvr and BundyBear. Just went from 16C on the outbound to 5C as a humble Silver and have waitlisted upgrade to Business. Then I just went back in and Row 4 had opened up, so changed to 4C and cancelled the Upgrade. I won't need guesting into the SYD QC J Lounge, as I'll be collecting those attendees and heading over to the HQ. For my return flight on Sunday, the upgrade cleared instantly
I also checked with (former) Red Roo about what to do with hand luggage. She advised there aren't lockable storage available, however plenty of space out of sight - the campus will be quiet, so no issues.
I reckon we just store it in the QF Boardroom

Unfortunately, as advised in post #186 and #188, Qantas limited the numbers for the Tour (20 + me as organiser). Those that made the cut have all received emails with relevant details.
There is an AGM happening for those arriving into SYD on Sat AM and it will be adjourned and continued at the inaugural AGM SYD dinner (see post #112 for relevant details)

moa999's ID received and updated spreadsheet and ID's have been sent to QF. Now to take a rest and hope there aren't any more pulling out at the last minute, although Bluesky and kpc are hoping.
Thank you to Aeolus for sending me an SMS first before posting their message above. Hope the AB's work swiftly.

As I'm a benevolent soul, I came across the link on AFF to a business that I want to support: Every Little Bit Helps (https://www.elbh.org.au/) thanks to Denali for posting there.
Given I now have a reasonable collection of these items, I am thinking of bringing them with me on the weekend and donating them at one of the Flight Centre shops listed here: https://www.elbh.org.au/drop-off-locator/. Looking at them, either the George Street one or York Street??
It's a pity that none of them are near the airport, but most of us are going into the city afterwards. I'd be happy to take any from people who aren't staying after the QF HQ tour and adding to my donation - it would be on behalf of "Flyertalk".
Who else wants to make a difference?

I am sorry to hear that Aeolus - even if I do benefit.
I will take plenty of photos and bore you silly when we cross paths again.
Take care, and I hope you are back on your feet soon. And if you make a miraculous recovery the spot is yours. No really. Stop laughing, I am serious.

Looks like there are a few who can be guested if need be.
Oh, someone else is going to have to chair the AGM! Phew.
