That may have been what I needed when I wasted my time on that.

Hi Vic,

Well, it appears that several airlines are pushing to be allowed to
fly the lucrative Australia - USA route which is monopolised by a few
at present such as Qantas and United, thus an expensive trip.

If you can get a cheap AA or Hawaiian Airlines flight to Hawaii and if
you keep looking at Jetstar, the budget branch of Qantas, you should
be able to pick up a cheap flight to Sydney. Apart from wishing to
break a 14.5 hour direct flight from San Francisico to Sydney, that's
the reason I always stop over in Honolulu now. Even if I have to spend
a night in a hotel, I still save hundreds.

Whereabouts where they married - Sydney?

cheers
Peter
