Cathay Pacific’s Australian rebound
Mar 26, 2024, 09:37 PMWould be fantastic to see Cairns brought back but am surprised this is under consideration given it was axed well before Covid. Understand the route was heavily dependent on seafood belly freight so maybe that is a factor.

Big changes coming to Cathay business class this year
Feb 22, 2024, 12:16 AMThis seems to imply that CX would bring the A330 back to Australia. That would surprise me for a number of reasons including capacity (inclusive freight) and need to have a more updated product to serve the Aus market generally.

Qantas Status Match?
Mar 17, 2022, 10:16 AMWondering if anyone has recent experience negotiating status match with QF? I'm DM with CX and obviously gutted about the situation there. I may have no alternative but to decamp to SQ in any event unless QF improves its connectivity into Asia ex-MEL but would be interested to hear from anyone wh...

The Pier business lounge is not what it used to be...
Nov 28, 2018, 02:34 PMThe Pier F food and service has improved considerably after an initial difficult period following Sodexo's takeover. It is IMO by far and away currently the best lounge offering I can think of anywhere.
