Hah I’m going to use that instead of the “whale”

Nice to meet you whilst creating toasties in the CBR Qantas club😊. It was an awesome flight, and yes, they could have made it feel more special, and even had the water cannons in Canberra for the inaugural flight 🤷. Flying the green A220 back again made for an amazing day! ❤🥰😍✈️🙏

[@YoungAussieFlyer]
