Default Looking good!

Guys,
Thanks for making the effort. The only thing that could let it down is if the flight arrives late, so please check United Airlines around 11:00 to make sure that that flight #UA840 from Melbourne via Sydney arrived on time. If it has, then allow around three hours from arrival time, 10:21 a.m. for us to get there.

It's Thursday here, but I'll see you in four days.

Regards from Down Under

John since 911 the airlines are a little iffy about giving out info on flights, sometime you can get it,sometimes not.You have my home and cell#'s so if you can call when you land that will help. I will try to get the info from the airlines but alot of us will be there all day anyway. I'll have my laptop with me so if theres a problem I could update everyone by posting on the forum and phone calls.I think it would be safe to say that if I don't post theres a problem on the forum by 12 noon all is good
