Great TR, thanks for sharing. looking forward to the rest.
oh dear, seeing all these pics makes me realise I need to get off my butt and attend the next SQtalk function wherever it may be. I do believe Bangkok is the place to do it, and possibly a few of us BKK regulars, Kyo, myself, MAN Flyer, Lobster ( and im sure there is many others) should organise it?
You must persuade Kyo+ hard (really hard) to have one in BKK.... :biggrin
He's truly bloody good organizer...
I arrived at Kingsford-Smith Airport around 6.15am for my 9.15am flight.
I wanted to maximize my lounge experience there. It has been a while since my last visit to Qantas Business Class lounge 6 years ago....
The airport has been quite busy at that time. A lot of pax for morning flights.
The flight information display...
Some shoot of the check in area....
Emirate's crews queued up to drop off their luggage.....
GA's check in counters......
Qantas handled the check in process for GA.
GA also used QF J lounge for their J pax in SYD.
GA's Departure Express pass for their premium pax at SYD....
The quality of the paper used for this pass is better that SQ's or TG's.
GA used hard/thick paper, compared to SQ's or TG's which used thin paper.
The quality of the paper made this pass looked more exclusive, suited for their premium pax.
There was quite a line at the immigration counters.
In this condition, the Express pass became handy to cut off the line.
There was a spacial line for immigration and security check for the pass holder., which save you a lot of time compare to the regular line at that time.

After cleared the immigration and security check, I went to the GST refund office.
Now there was a real queue there. No priority line for premium pax...
After finished with this GST thing, here some shoots of SYD airport, post renovation, airside area....
Not spent too much time there, just enough time to take some pictures, I went to the Qantas Lounge.....

btw, what is LD and DO? Sorry, i'm rather "new" to these terms...hehe
i definitely dont hv the resources if you guys think along the line of some posh condo facilities to host the gathering....HDB lah here...renting room only summore...hehe
LD is the term cloned by our esteemed Kyo+. It stands for LiquidDate as the sole intention of getting together is to drink and drink so we can help liquidate the economy back in 2008 / 2009.
Each section has its own buffet area.
And they were arranged in the similar setting.
There's a nice selection of food for breakfast. And they even have "Pancake Machine", so your pancake would be always hot and freshly bake.
There's also a nice selection of drinks. Alcohol and non-alcohol.
And they served MOET for the champagne...
Some shoots of the buffet area, from all section....
