We flew Virgin Blue to Sydney. The flight itself was a disaster because of delays, but it was hard to get pissed because everyone was just so damn polite. Interestingly enough, Virgin Blue tries to bring back the feel of air travel in the 60’s with flight attdendants that are young, female, and attractive. Is this sexist or just designing the experience?

One detail that is apparently true on all airplanes in Australia, instead of your standard air sickness bag, Australian ones are dual purpose: you can throw up in it or you can drop in a roll of film and mail it for developing.
