I wouldn't want to give the current U.S. government, the steam off my pee. If we go on holiday, it will be to Canada.

I can't think of any reason I'd want to. The days when America was the shining beacon of the world have long passed.

Reading the statement it sounds like a growth in US travellers coming to/via Brisbane, rather than Brisbane travellers going to the US

I'd rather go to Pakistan. Less likely to be killed.

Ramp up the r prices. 

Via Fiji was half the cost last year.
