Oprah and Travolta coming to Aus

Oprah Winfrey asks John Travolta to fly her audience to Australia

Travolta was checked out on 744 as part of the deal to have his 707 painted in retro QF strip; is he still current? Has he 'upgraded' to the Dugong?

Any idea what they'd put on to fly this mob out?

According to the 'small print' on the channel 10 news Travolta won't actually be accompanying and/or flying them as his son is due to be born at the same time. I'm guessing a standard Qantas charter flight for all is in the offing?
Nice PR coup for Tourism Australia, anyway.

Oprah has to check-in her ass seperately as excess baggage and Travolta's botox and plastic surgery means he has to apply for a new ASIC card as he doesn't look anything like his old self !!

Travolta was checked out on 744
John Travolta did some 744 Simulator time! That does not constitute being checked out!

Looking at the average wingspan of the arses in the studio audience they will need double bookings.
