[QUOTE=Fly Away;6289001]Thanks for that Donna, not that it is good news, but I thought I was right.





BA aren't great to fly with, but if they give 32kgs.....



Oh no.....what have you heard, haven't flown with them (but then haven't flown with most as we aint been to Oz before). Would sooner be forewarned, especially as we've got 3 kids in tow

Hi Donna, we flew with them to Aus 10 years ago. They were OK - everything is very basic and the service isn't great. Their flight partners Qantas were much worse - dumped us unscheduled in Tahiti and then LA with no food or drink and no compensation!

Hope we do get picked but I'm sure there are 1000's of people going. Won't have to stress about selling the house if we do get picked can use it to validate our visa then they can put a big stamp over my lovely shining visa sticker

I think this is good news I had heard (from my mother ) that my brother and his wife were going on holiday the same time as we go there for a visit. Now found out that they're not away until a couple of weeks later . The good news is I now have a valid reason to give my mother a clip round the ear, the bad news is I have to see my brother and SIL
