This from the website:

http://www.immi.gov....visa-labels.htm

Airline check in staff should have access to the visa computer data base.
Wouldn't hurt to have the letter in hand.

Croc, taken from the visa letter:-

'Certain Subclass 457 visa holders may travel label-free to Australia if they hold a passport from an eligible country. The complete list of eligible label-free countries for the Subclass 457 is available at: http://www.immi.gov....visa-labels.htm'

When you go to the website it doesn't list the eligible countries. Bloody typical govt. website, useless...

My GF doesn't have a visa label.  She has just had the letter as the visa.  If your missus has a newish passport it may actually be on a 'chip'.

Mine has been out to oz twice and no drama with visa.

Have a great time.  Posted Image
Thanks for your reply. My wife does in fact have a new passport, but it does not have a biometric chip which surprised me.

I was worried that we would be refused boarding at the check-in by some ignorant jobs worth, without the visa label. You have put my mind at ease.

Sunday only, 11:30 to 14:30.... be sure to book as it's quite busy, and ask for a VIP card which will give you 20% discount...

In Topic: Thai Govt Hopes To Find Lessons In Road Toll Drop

What a joke... govt. officials trying to give themselves a pat on the back because the stats are down this year! The numbers are manipulated every year so are pretty meaningless...

If the BiB had more check points for drinking and driving that would help, but crime prevention isn't exactly one of their strong suits...

Come Songkran in another couple of months there will be another 500+ lives lost over the so called critical period...

Nothing will ever change in Thailand as the Hi-So's and Govt. don't really give a shit about the working class...
