| Holocaine | Do NZ have a lounge in SF? | 01:24 |
|---|---|---|
| chrisjrn | Holocaine: Nope. I believe SQ is who you use if you want nice. | 01:25 |
| Holocaine | Will SQ let me in with an NZ boarding pass? | 01:26 |
| chrisjrn | Maybe? | 01:26 |
| Holocaine | (Or an AS one, one the way over) | 01:26 |
| chrisjrn | Time to get a status match? :P | 01:26 |
| Holocaine | Yeah, Turkish seem to be slow at doing them. | 01:26 |
| Holocaine | Don't know if it'd hit in time. | 01:26 |
| Holocaine | Would NZ status match? | 01:27 |
| chrisjrn | unlikely | 01:27 |
| Holocaine | I need to wait for the itinerary to hit before I know exactly which carrier I'm on. | 01:27 |
| Holocaine | I know it's NZ ADL-AKL-SFO but I don't know what the last leg is. | 01:27 |
| Holocaine | (Yes, ADL) | 01:28 |
| chrisjrn | lolol | 01:28 |
| Holocaine | Tricky logistics involving der kinder. | 01:28 |
| chrisjrn | :) | 01:28 |
| Holocaine | We're taking Ms 6 but not Mr 2. | 01:28 |
| Holocaine | So Mr 2 is going to stay with my mother. | 01:28 |
| chrisjrn | oh fun | 01:28 |
| Holocaine | She's in Adelaide and we're planning to be there for Christmas anyway. | 01:28 |
| Holocaine | So the current plan looks like drive MEL-ADL December 8, myself, Claire and Ms 6 fly ADL-AKL-SFO-SEA on December 10, back on December 18, stay for Christmas and then drive ADL-MEL after that. | 01:29 |
| Holocaine | NZ apparently use the EVA lounge, or at least did in 2012. | 01:30 |
| Holocaine | Or UA. | 01:31 |
| Holocaine | Are there any other Star Alliance soft targets for status matches? | 01:31 |
| chrisjrn | No idea! | 01:32 |
| Holocaine | Do VFF do point statements? | 01:41 |
| Holocaine | Huh. | 01:42 |
| Holocaine | I have E-Statement ticked but I don't recall receiving them. | 01:42 |
| chrisjrn | Holocaine: I get them every month | 01:42 |
| chrisjrn | looks no different to most of their spam | 01:42 |
| Holocaine | Nope, none. | 01:43 |
| Holocaine | And I can't seem to find them on the site. | 01:43 |
| Holocaine | chrisjrn: The itinerary entry for the NZ flight from ADL to AKL is listing "no meals". Is that correct?! | 01:54 |
| chrisjrn | What's the fare class? Match it up with one of their "Seats to Suit" fare, and see | 01:56 |
| chrisjrn | you'll be able to buy stuff on board regardless | 01:56 |
| Holocaine | Hrm. Itinerary doesn't have fare codes. | 02:07 |
| chrisjrn | Does it have an Air NZ-specific PNR? | 02:08 |
| chrisjrn | If so, type it in over there. | 02:08 |
| Holocaine | Yep. | 02:08 |
| Holocaine | "Unable to retrieve" | 02:09 |
| Holocaine | Possibly because it's not actually ticketed yet. | 02:09 |
| Holocaine | Right. I suspect we'll be whatever class "Seat + Bag" is. | 02:11 |
| Holocaine | Seems a bit rude not offering meal service on a four-hour flight. =/ Guess VA don't offer it on trans-Tasman either though. | 02:12 |
| Holocaine | Especially one that leaves at 11:40. | 02:12 |
| chrisjrn | Holocaine: It's a mixed-product offering | 02:30 |
| chrisjrn | you can get a meal with certain fare classes. | 02:30 |
| chrisjrn | I *imagine* you should get a meal on a long-haul ticket | 02:30 |
| Holocaine | Ok, the itinerary is NZ792, NZ8, NZ9210 (UA codeshare operated by skywest) then NZ9745 (UA/skywest), NZ7, NZ791. | 02:59 |
| chrisjrn | ENJOY | 03:01 |
| chrisjrn | sorry about the CRJs | 03:01 |
| Holocaine | Only one. | 03:02 |
| Holocaine | CRJ700 on NZ9210, 739 on NZ9745. | 03:02 |
| Holocaine | A320s on the trans-Tasmans and a 747 up and a 777 back. | 03:02 |
| Holocaine | Turkish status match attempt in progress. | 03:03 |

| Holocaine | I has. | 04:26 |
| chrisjrn | woo\ | 04:26 |
| Holocaine | Staying at the Homewood Suites by Hilton this time around. | 04:27 |
| Holocaine | Mainly so we get a separate bedroom so Ms 6 can go to bed and we don't have to turn all the lights off. | 04:28 |
| chrisjrn | makes sense | 04:28 |
| chrisjrn | let me know how that goes. Seems like an interesting brand | 04:28 |
| Holocaine | Will do. | 04:29 |

| praetorian | Holocaine: where to? | 05:04 |
| praetorian | also: confirmed by the guy who answers the melbourne consulate's mobile - i dont need a visa | 05:04 |
| Holocaine | praetorian: Seattle. | 05:05 |
| praetorian | even tho he works in the consulate.. he doesnt have a colombia visa | 05:05 |
| praetorian | haha | 05:05 |
| Holocaine | praetorian: ADL-AKL-SFO-SEA | 05:05 |
| praetorian | Holocaine: aww nice | 05:05 |
| praetorian | pity about the ADL thing. | 05:05 |
| praetorian | ;) | 05:05 |
| praetorian | is ADL->AKL direct? | 05:05 |
| Holocaine | Yep. | 05:05 |
| praetorian | ..that sounds like a money losing flight path | 05:05 |
| chrisjrn | nope | 05:06 |
| chrisjrn | it's a monopoly | 05:06 |
| Holocaine | ADL is so that Mr 2 can spend some quality time with Grandma instead of driving an entire 747 nuts. | 05:06 |
| praetorian | QF? | 05:06 |
| chrisjrn | Once a day. | 05:06 |
| chrisjrn | NZ | 05:06 |
| Holocaine | NZ | 05:06 |
| praetorian | heh | 05:06 |
| praetorian | fair enough | 05:06 |
| praetorian | my RTW is $13k | 05:06 |
| praetorian | btw | 05:06 |
| Holocaine | This is less than that for 3 pax. =P | 05:06 |
| Holocaine | (woo Y-) | 05:06 |
| praetorian | mines in "whatever business is" | 05:07 |
| praetorian | i think it's J on QF | 05:07 |
| praetorian | maybe E | 05:08 |
| * praetorian shrugs | 05:08 | |
| Holocaine | Matrix is back to not showing VA routings between MEL and SEA again. =/ | 05:12 |
| chrisjrn | WOO | 05:14 |
| chrisjrn | OOO | 05:14 |
| chrisjrn | ooo | 05:14 |
| praetorian | sweet. | 05:40 |
| praetorian | my boss is going to approve me a coprorate credit card. | 05:40 |
| Holocaine | I've already got one of those. =P | 05:40 |
| praetorian | haha | 05:41 |
| praetorian | yeah well.. given no one else in my position has had one before. | 05:41 |
| Holocaine | I had one within a month of starting. | 05:42 |
| Holocaine | Second time I've had one. | 05:42 |
| Holocaine | Both AMEX. | 05:42 |
| praetorian | heh | 06:05 |
| praetorian | Holocaine: OMG THIS FORM SUCKS | 06:05 |
| praetorian | "fillable pdf.." | 06:05 |
| Holocaine | =) | 06:05 |
| praetorian | it says 10 days to process | 06:06 |
| Holocaine | praetorian: I had to GO INTO THE OFFICE to pick my card up too. As in EMC's office. | 06:06 |
| praetorian | ah. lol | 06:06 |
| Holocaine | Not the EMC Isilon Storage Division Melbourne Engineering Head Office (aka my front room) | 06:06 |
| praetorian | is the 10 days pretty accurate | 06:07 |
| Holocaine | Seemed pretty fast for me. | 06:07 |
| praetorian | wondering if i will have to make work pay for the express 5 days thing | 06:07 |
| Holocaine | Although I'm guessing an org like EMC gets a bit of priority treatment. | 06:07 |
| Holocaine | tripit's back, although it hasn't processed my emails yet. | 06:08 |
| Holocaine | Slack bastards. | 06:08 |
| praetorian | haha | 06:09 |
| praetorian | you would think tripit runs in the cloud | 06:09 |
