Yep, curfew at 11.

An A380 could (soon?) become a regular sight in Adelaide, Emirates plans to change all of their Australia flights to it. Beat me to it. That's a really interesting article. I can't imagine Adelaide justifying an A380 anytime in the near future, but with Emirates you just never know. I particularly ...

Canberra's smart card was pretty inexpensive too. For some reason, they still require you to tap on and off even though the fare is the same, regardless of distance or buses taken in a 90min period (but that's a minor issue)... Having all users tap-off would, if the system records locations and tra...

Disappointing.

What was Dicksmiths is now Le Cornu Living A temporary one? Yeah it's a pop up store - hence why they kept the Dick Smith's colour scheme rather than their traditional red. When they move out, I wonder if Makris will take over the lease and leave the shop dormant for 30 years :lol: Intersport is mo...

What would be the point of that? Qatar already go to Melbourne.

No Qatar flight it looks like today, anyone know why? http://www.theaustralian.com.au/business/aviation/airbus-a350-delays-to-interupt-qatar-airways-adelaide-service/news-story/08a44f0899c33eb2c23322e1457a2982 Qatar Airways chief executive Akbar Al Baker was in Adelaide yesterday to welcome the dai...

I would only see this working if a terminal entrance like Terminal 3 at Dubai was built with a underground train to T1. It would require the removal of most buildings on that side of the airport.

2 Qantas planes broke curfew by quite a bit last night, anyone know why? They both landed well after 11 and one close to 12 It may have been something to do with the storms on the East coast. There were lots of strange movements associated with that. For example, a Qantas A330 being diverted to Ric...

I swear when they announced this there was talk of an extra 2 gates internationally or domestic?

There isnt enough room for more gates at the moment. I guess adding them will involve a terminal expansion.

No news about it as far as I'm aware.

Will we see a response from Emirates to increase frequency? Also any word on an airline from the US starting up and which route would that be? Probably not at the moment as the market will be to saturated. Emirates has stated that Australia is a priority to make an all-A380 market. In time once air...

I swear I saw on Sunday a Qantas 737 take off from runway 30? Can large planes take off from runway 30 ? Very unusual if the case? I read somewhere that all 777 models can takeoff in a distance of just over 5,000ft, and R30/12 is 5,420ft. I don't think that would be possible though. I would say tha...

777-300ER (American) range: 7,830 nm 787-9 range (United): 7,635 nm range The 777-200LR (Delta) is higher range than the 300-ER. YPAD/KLAX distance is 7161 nm via a route made on a flight sim website. I don't think aircraft would be a problem, the only problem right now is whether the route will ac...

You have take into account the 2 hour time difference between Brisbane and Perth. If you leave Perth at 730am in the morning you arrive in Brisbane at around 2pm. The 2 flights from Brisbane to Los Angeles both leave in the morning so you then have to stay overnight. Adelaide could have a flight to...
