My daughter and several friends were booked to fly with CX from PER to HKG tonight then on to LHR and Malaga, Spain on Sunday.
They received advice this afternoon that their flight to HKG had been cancelled due to the Typhoon so after frantic work by CX and their travel agent, they are now leaving Perth at 0255 with Air Mauritius to Mauritius then onwards to London with British Airways - all of 6 kms longer according to the Great Circle Mapper.
The joys of parenthood and airline travel !!!!
