1 00:00:01,320 --> 00:00:03,200 Speaker 1: And Amanda jam Nation. 2 00:00:03,600 --> 00:00:05,240 Speaker 2: I must say, if you were thinking of going on 3 00:00:05,280 --> 00:00:07,200 Speaker 2: a flight, and I was talking to my neighbor Reno, 4 00:00:07,320 --> 00:00:09,520 Speaker 2: He's going off to Turkey, I thought, whoa, you know, 5 00:00:09,680 --> 00:00:11,000 Speaker 2: that's a well. 6 00:00:11,200 --> 00:00:13,240 Speaker 1: You don't even have to be going to those destinations 7 00:00:13,280 --> 00:00:15,000 Speaker 1: to be affected. As we saw on the news last night, 8 00:00:15,040 --> 00:00:16,720 Speaker 1: a whole lot of Jack's friends all of a sudden 9 00:00:16,720 --> 00:00:18,920 Speaker 1: are going to Wallt's university holidays. A lot of people 10 00:00:19,040 --> 00:00:23,040 Speaker 1: school holidays coming up, going overseas, flying through Dubai or 11 00:00:23,040 --> 00:00:25,520 Speaker 1: the Middle East. All the flights to Doha. Many flights 12 00:00:25,560 --> 00:00:28,600 Speaker 1: were suspended following the US strikes on Iran and I 13 00:00:28,640 --> 00:00:33,440 Speaker 1: RAN's retaliation. Jack's friends their flight, rather than going to 14 00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:36,720 Speaker 1: the Middle East, was diverted to India for refueling. A 15 00:00:36,760 --> 00:00:40,360 Speaker 1: lot of people anxious to see how they're going. An 16 00:00:40,479 --> 00:00:43,440 Speaker 1: urgent warning to Australians earlier in the week, several flights 17 00:00:43,479 --> 00:00:47,519 Speaker 1: from Singapore and the UK to Dubai and Doha were 18 00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:51,199 Speaker 1: suspended on Sunday morning following these strikes. Services through the 19 00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:55,600 Speaker 1: Australian routes were resumed, but British Airways passengers were stranded 20 00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:59,200 Speaker 1: in Dubai. An alert issued by the government's Smart Traveler 21 00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:01,640 Speaker 1: website on Monday, has advised that the situation in the 22 00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:05,280 Speaker 1: Middle East is unpredictable could get worse with little warning, 23 00:01:05,600 --> 00:01:08,880 Speaker 1: disrupting travel across the globe. But I saw on the 24 00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:12,759 Speaker 1: news last night a travel expert saying, beware bailing out 25 00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:17,120 Speaker 1: of your flights because I mean safety, of course, but 26 00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:19,920 Speaker 1: if you pull the pin on a flight rather than 27 00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:22,720 Speaker 1: waiting for the flight to be canceled, you can't claim 28 00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:25,800 Speaker 1: any insurance. You don't get anything back from the airline 29 00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:28,080 Speaker 1: if you bail out before they've canceled the flight. 30 00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:30,000 Speaker 2: Or what if you're stuck in someplace you want to be. 31 00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:32,360 Speaker 1: That's right, and you know they're going to cancel the flight, 32 00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:35,400 Speaker 1: but you have to wait and wait until they do. Interesting, 33 00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:36,840 Speaker 1: isn't it. Did you see that flight last night? I 34 00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:38,679 Speaker 1: really felt for these people. This is a Quantus flight 35 00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:42,400 Speaker 1: that was flying from Perth to Paris. I saw the graphic. 36 00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:45,240 Speaker 1: They were almost there, fifteen hours in the air yep 37 00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:48,680 Speaker 1: had to turn and come back and there's a young 38 00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:51,960 Speaker 1: guy being land in Paris because I think just of 39 00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:55,400 Speaker 1: the airspace. Maybe that was it. But Judy says he 40 00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:57,680 Speaker 1: due to the turmol in the Middle East, you're flying 41 00:01:57,720 --> 00:02:01,440 Speaker 1: through that airspace yep. Sixteen hours in and probably flying 42 00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:03,160 Speaker 1: through that bit and it was too dangerous and they 43 00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:03,760 Speaker 1: had to come back. 44 00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:09,320 Speaker 2: Like September eleven, remember that Oh, Come from Home, Come 45 00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:13,600 Speaker 2: Come from Away, that musical based on reality, based on reality. 46 00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:17,600 Speaker 2: But when the twin Towers fell, all those planes are 47 00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:19,200 Speaker 2: in the air had to land somewhere, and they all 48 00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:20,079 Speaker 2: landed in New Founder. 49 00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:21,359 Speaker 1: That's where they all used to refuel. 50 00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:23,480 Speaker 2: And in World War two that's what they when in 51 00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:25,840 Speaker 2: that era in the forties, that's where you'd go and 52 00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:28,000 Speaker 2: fuel up your plane. A we're going to see that 53 00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:32,000 Speaker 2: happening again because Doha, the Middle East has become Dubai 54 00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:35,000 Speaker 2: has become a place where but also a place where 55 00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:37,640 Speaker 2: jets can now fuel and go to other places in 56 00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:40,160 Speaker 2: the world. It's a nice it's a dober hardbot. So 57 00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:42,640 Speaker 2: places like Singapore and Hong Kong in the past, that's 58 00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:45,080 Speaker 2: where you used to go to. Now those places might 59 00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:48,320 Speaker 2: come back into favor, but Hong Kong's run by China now, yeah. 60 00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:50,840 Speaker 1: And the Emirates. All those flights go through the Middle East, Interesting, 61 00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:52,760 Speaker 1: isn't it? And but would you go to the States 62 00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:55,080 Speaker 1: at the moment I just saw a story yesterday of 63 00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:58,000 Speaker 1: someone who was who was turned back at at the 64 00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:01,000 Speaker 1: gate because they went through their socialcial media and they 65 00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:03,560 Speaker 1: had a meme of jd Vance with. 66 00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:04,120 Speaker 2: A bald head. 67 00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:07,320 Speaker 1: That was all at took put on his social media 68 00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:09,639 Speaker 1: to have him not allowed entry into the States. 69 00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:13,160 Speaker 2: Stay home, just stay home, do the chores around the 70 00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:13,480 Speaker 2: hair
