[AusNOG] Equinix Aircon failure

[Matthew Moyle-Croft]

I just hope Virgin Australia do move to a proper booking system - if you fly internationally with an itinerary of more 2 flights to get to your destination then it's all a bit hard.  (You have to do it all by phone, they lose important facts like you're travelling with kids etc and so sit your kids randomly through the aircraft!).
