Will wait a few days to see whether we have a "break out" or a "fake out."

Looks as though the fog is slowly clearing,and all flights will resume in about 10 or 20 minutes.
All travellers who have not purchased a ticket should do straight away.!

ie last sale $2.56 and buyer at $2.56 and seller $2.58.

I think they are VASTLY overstating the effect of that. The cost of border crossing is looked at holistically as a total by all travellers. Australia's departure tax is substantially higher than ours and airport fees at Sydney are outrageous to say the least but it hasn't hurt their tourism has it !! London also recently substantially increased its departure taxes.

On the Iran deal...while August spot oil prices ended up marginally at close of trading, its the medium term extra supply coming to the market in 2016 and beyond that provides scope for encouragement in the long term price of oil.
Eventually its possible that Iran could re-establish their full 3.5m barrels per day export capability.

Whooping 142 quid (pounds) to get out of Heathrow

Flew back from Honkers to Auckland on NZ 80. Applied to upgrade from Prem Economy to Business but not an empty seat on the plane in any of the cabins.

I flew back from Shanghai on Friday and that flight was totally full also.

Sure puts our passenger service charge, formerly known as departure tax of $25 into perspective doesn't it !!

Since it seems we are sharing experiences...
Picked a friend up who flew in from Singapore last night on Air NZ after a Singapore airlines flight from Manchester to Singapore via Munich... AIR was totally packed whereas she had a spare seat next to her from Manchester to Munich and saw a couple of spares Munich to SG. Aside from load... the service on AIR was exceptional - professional yet friendly and approachable staff, food, refreshments, seats... everything was just better. She was quite disappointed in SG airlines for once.
