  • Hawaiian Airlines moves step closer to joining Oneworld

    Sep 19, 2024, 10:07 AM

    It is unlikely competition authorities would approve any sort of cooperation between HA and QF so it is likely the VA arrangement will continue.

  • Frequent flyer dismay as Emirates axes this Australian route

    Sep 09, 2024, 10:33 AM

    This flight made more sense pre-COVID when it offered a daytime SIN-MEL sector and a late departure out of MEL that got you into SIN around 1AM but enabled you to work a full day in MEL before flying out.  Post-COVID, the ridiculous schedule meant it was attractive to no one.  It i...

  • Photos: inside Qantas’ newest jet, the Airbus A321XLR

    Aug 29, 2024, 03:29 PM

    Businesses now use the words customers or guests deliberately because they are trying to reinforce that they are a service business and customers have choice.  Passengers does not convey the choice so does not reaffirm the need to provide the best service possible.  Not sure the po...

    So very much the domestic product we were expecting.  In fact, it largely mirrors the product on VA's 737-8s though QF does not have the Economy X type product with 34" pitch available.

  • Suite dreams: American Airlines’ A321XLR business class beds

    Aug 28, 2024, 10:17 AM

    Remember the US carriers only operate this service on their transcontinental routes which tend to be an hour or so longer than SYD-PER and, due to population, the frequencies of their flights are far greater than the Australian trans-con services will ever get near. They operate a more classicall...

  • Classic Plus Rewards are a useless con

    Jun 27, 2024, 11:11 AM

    Ever since Qantas created its supposedly new Classic Plus rewards, the availability of the old Classic reward flights on long-haul international services has all but disappeared. Now, all that is ever offered in Classic Plus at a much higher point cost no matter what date range you select. A re...

  • QF Lounge Upgrades

    Apr 09, 2024, 09:38 AM

    There appears to be significant works between T1 and T2 at MEL underway which may be the beginning of the new Swing Gates project which will mean 2 domestic gates in Concourse C can convert to International as needed. If this is the case, the plan was for a new International Business Lounge to b...

  • QF Booking in EK Premium Economy

    Apr 02, 2024, 07:36 PM

    This may be a question for the travel agents out there.Does anyone understand how the QF/EK alliance works with Premium Economy bookings? I am trying to book an itinerary to Europe later this year. The QF website offers options on both QF and EK in both Economy and Business classes but shows no...

  • Experience on SQ 787

    Dec 11, 2023, 01:21 PM

    The Y seats SQ have on their 78X and regional A359s are not great. Even though the A359 is wider than the 787, the seats are the same width with the extra fuselage width just going into wider aisles.
