El Al ready to launch non-stop flights to Melbourne
Aug 02, 2022, 12:58 AMWell, I observed El Al's screening measures before check-in at Bangkok's Don Muang airport on several occasions and let me tell you, it was very onerous and time consuming. For some passengers, it was also quite humiliating. A lot of people refused to fly on El Al for this reason. Those who neede...

El Al ready to launch non-stop flights to Melbourne
Aug 01, 2022, 05:02 PMThat is provided El Al no longer does intense, time consuming passenger screenings prior to check-in like they used to. I observed this process going on, years ago now, at Don Muang airport in Bangkok and it looked like a huge hassle. If El Al applies this policy to every one of it's flights, the...

El Al ready to launch non-stop flights to Melbourne
Aug 01, 2022, 03:04 PMYes, that's a nice option too. Zurich is a great place to transit or spend a day or two.

Thailand drops Tourist Pass, outdoor masks from July
Aug 01, 2022, 02:36 PMYes and what's most frustrating is that Thailand's Public Health Ministry originally proposed to scrap ALL restrictions effective July 1 and here we are on August 1, with no word on when this might happen. Granted, a virtual self-test (possibly saliva only) you do in front of a doctor who then is...

Australia eases border rules for unvaccinated foreigners
Jul 11, 2022, 02:53 PMIndeed. The only reason they still have it in place is for virtue signalling purposes. It should be revoked immediately, except of course for destinations, where vaccination proof is still required. These include Manila (although unvaccinated Filipinos should be allowed on board, as they have the...

The Latest Qantas Insult
Jul 10, 2022, 05:40 PMWellington has a curfew too? What's the deal with all these curfews at Australian/NZ airports? I'm all in favor of noise reduction and improving quality of life, but come on, 95% or more of the world's major airports don't have a curfew and they're not playing these games. Would this one flight l...
