    Congratulations! She’s all checked in and flies in 1.5 hours so fingers crossed we’re on the home stretch of a 5.5 year journey!!

    It's been a while since my last post, but mum is on a flight tomorrow! I can't believe it's finally here. She's on her way to the airport now to fly in the morning. Thoroughly reccomennd Jennie from British Travel for anyone needing to book flights to or from the UK!

    Yep, lots of things to tick off - travel insurance - hadn't even thought, urgh! I'm not thinking about it all until 4 weeks prior, then can book the PCR test (booking @ Boots can only book 28 days before you want to book) then will look at all the declarations.

    When do you fly? You can't be too far from my mums flight (May 5th!) Fingers crossed everything goes smoothly!
  5. NatS259
    Only 1.5 hour transit time, so not too bad in the grand scheme of things, at least she’ll have a row to herself got to look on the bright side!!
  6. NatS259
    Yes they are. At the moment they just have to stay on the plane, they only stopped this for a couple of weeks.

    Mums flights booked through Jennie @ British travel for early May with Singapore. Will keep everyone posted! Good luck
  8. NatS259
    Thanks! Good luck!

    Thanks - when are you booked to fly and who with if you don't mind me asking? Did you book direct?
  10. NatS259
    Thanks, yes have been in touch with Jennie. Coming in under $3k London - Brisbane, April & May, can book the same flights direct (Singapore or Emirates) for a few hundred dollars cheaper, so wondering what to do if no guarantee of not getting bumped now. I'll ask her if that's the case now. I get the impression she is a very busy lady so don't want to waste her time or irritate her with questions!

    Has anyone had any luck booking a flight since recent visa approval and getting here/not getting bumped so far? Have you booked independently or through an agent? The hurdles never end!
  12. NatS259
    Update - will be booking my mums flight next week for March/April time. She is due to have her second vaccine end of March so will hopefully be flying after then. Awaiting her new passport so can update the visa as hers was due to expire, then will be doing the paperwork changes and booking! Will keep everyone updates on the no doubt stressful process!
  13. NatS259
    Thank you, I’ll look her up now!

    Off shore! Yes definitely waiting until January to make a plan. Hoping some sort of home quarantine scenario will be implemented in the next few months rather than hotel quarantine $$$ - wishful thinking probably!
  15. NatS259
    Completely stumped as to when to book my Mums flight for, knowing full well it’ll likely get bumped! Has anyone with a recent visa grant booked? So many unknowns it’s hard to now make a plan! Very frustrating as after the 2nd vac payment a business class flight + quarantine isn’t really an option right now. If it’s not one stressful waiting game it’s another
