Qantas Will Buy You a Passport

Qantas will buy Americans a passport, but not a visa to Australia. 

We’ve heard the majority of Americans don’t own a valid US passport. Since we’re not your typical airline, we’d like to do something about that.

Just book your trip to Australia with Qantas, and we’ll cover the cost of your new passport. That’s $135 off your booking, per person, on all eligible flights. If you have a passport already, no worries, you can still enjoy the discount. Consider it our contribution to your next one.

Book your Australian vacation today with Qantas’ Passport Take-Off.

Thanks Mate

Nice Looking 717

Cool United 747 Send Off

I like the idea of United selling 747 mementos for miles. I don't think the value is good though. The panel and window frame already sold out, so I suppose enough people disagree.

Farewell Friend

Goodbye United 747-400

United is retiring the 747-422 in early November. I still see a few each day landing at SFO and they look much better than the 777-300ER. They are also more comfortable in coach.

Quit It United

United needs to stop removing moving walkways and making airports homogeneous. Newark was first, now Houston Intercontinental is at it.

Lovely SFO Arrival

My flight into SFO last night was like a sightseeing trip with an amazing view of San Francisco and Oakland on the way in. We were also 20 minutes early.

Great View on the Left Side
