Another quick report. I'm back in Australia now. Just waiting in the lounge at Sydney for my flight to Canberra. Had a very welcome shower.

Tomorrow I'll chase up my points from Qantas - they credit their own flights almost as soon as the plane lands, but other airlines (and the Marriott in Toronto) take their sweet time.

Let's see. Aer Lingus could take some lessons from American Airlines. American Airlines could learn from Qantas. And Qantas needs to study under Cathay Pacific.

Wow. Welcome home! And thanks for being "all over the place". I am seriously contemplating following in your footsteps (maybe not a 20 flights ticket, but an Australia-and-back ticket with a few stopovers). But first, off to the Welsh/English border in July.
Hey, and I still have a Tim-Tam (note singular) left!

My attendance at the UnCon is problematical. I can do one trip on points (I'm looking at the UnCon in July and Chicago in October) but not both. We'll see.

Maybe you could find a ticket that gets you to Australia by way of the UnCon? Australia in midwinter is quite tolerable - it's really only Canberra and the Snowy Mountains that get below zero. You'd find places like Sydney very pleasant. And as it's the off-season for us, maybe you'd find a good price.
