SUB. I wonder, could you explain the Q (b)ankers penchant for describing a flight with the prefix THE.

To the best of my recollection, most other drivers would just say DJxxx or whatever.

THE, refers to the one and only. However QF 1, I am prety certain, runs daily. If you want to refer to just one, why not stipulate the date and that way we can be sure it's just one. If you want to stipulate a generic, THE is totally inappropriate.

Better still why not give up (b)anking (before you go blind) and talk like the rest of us mortals.

Cheers. SS
