Review:
Nov 11, 2016, 09:09 AMI could not agree more Jay. When I read this review I thought there may of been another QF Melbourne business lounge rather than the underground bunker. This seems to be a very positive take on the lounge.Although the lounge has everything you "would" need it is not what you would expect in ...

The best business class seats on Melbourne-Auckland flights
Oct 06, 2016, 10:40 AMThe fact QF (or JetConnect if you like) compete with a far superior product from EK and AirNZ to Melbourne both on ground (in Auckland) and in the air. The ACK QF lounge needs an upgrade now and the F&B should be better....frozen pizza and party pies anyone, it's like going to a 9 year o...

The best business class seats on Melbourne-Auckland flights
Oct 04, 2016, 11:06 AMGiven the age of Qantas' 737s and the state of the Auckland lounge you wonder if Qantas really values the customers that travel accross the pond. AJ say's the lounge in Auckland will be upgraded and "good things take time" but they have been talking about this for 3 years...I'm not sure why it's ...

Platinum Plus: the next step for Qantas, Virgin frequent flyers
Mar 29, 2016, 08:10 PMAs a QF P1 and a VA Plat member here are my thoughts If you have a choice between the schemes and will reach Platinum go with QF (as long as you fly out of SYD or MELB internationally) .Although QF 's air service is as inconistant as the Hawthorn footbal club and full of many that should of...

Sample the new Spring menu at the Qantas first class lounge
Sep 24, 2015, 09:31 AMThe lamb ribs are fantastic....an absolute must have in the fist lounge. I'm usually looking for a second serve! The Qantas First lounge in Melbourne is about the only thing that makes regular international travel bearable.

Upgrade priority for QF
Feb 22, 2017, 09:57 AMHi Guys, 'm about to request a MEL-LHR upgrade (return) from business to first (using FF points) for myself and my wife. Although I understand the priority of CL-P1-P-G-S-B but do QF also prioritise within a tier for life time gold. For example would P1/lifetime gold get priority o...

Lounge Suggestions
Feb 16, 2017, 11:43 AMHow about installing individual arm based IFE units on lots of chairs in international business and first lounges that use the same interface and content that shown on the lounge providers flights. That way you could begin a movie or series while you wait in the lounge and then continue...

Does Virgin Australia need its own Platinum One tier?
Feb 16, 2017, 10:59 AMAs a QF P1 member (and LT gold) I see very little difference between QF's top WP and P1 tiers. Same F lounge guest policy, no anytime access, same domestic lounge access.What VA (and QF) "could" do is offer domestic access to the "The Club"/CL for dome...

Upon further questioning I was told this was a change to policy as at the 01...
