Pope's arrival
 

Just heard on the radio that the Pope will not be flying into YSSY, he will be flying into YSRI. No date or time was given.

Was looking forward to seeing the pope on Border Security, being asked if he had any food items.......

....... and then saying he didn't understand what the card said before he signed it.

What happens when they asked him if he packed his own bag?

"Sorry my son, Cardinal Philippe packed my bag I didn't know that was in there"

Where's that Narita drug dog officer when you need him...

Hopefully the popemobile is making the trip....I guess it now will have to be either Mercedes/BMW/or Volkswagen based....cant be a fiat or anything Italian ;)

PS: Sorry I forgot...it could be a Porsche !!!! :cool:

Sorry if it's already reported, but I believe it's an Alitalia 777 and the intention is to fly it nonstop to Sydney from Rome if possible.

Then the popemobile cant make the trip (too much weight)...better leave the pointed hat at home too !!!! Looks like it's going to be the Oz version for this trip...a holden ute with a beach umbrella !!!! I hope the seagulls stay home...that mess doesnt look good on the white outfit he wears. :D

I don't think that's correct. It should be a 747-400 of another carrier!
