  • This sleek jet is the new flagship of the Qantas fleet

    How could anyone not like the A380 with its wide spaces and quietness etc. , but each to his own preference. I do agree that the A350 is exceptionally good but the A380 is just that bit better for First and Business Class travel.

  • Virgin Australia business class: a real game-changer

    Just out of curiosity who does the Qantas and VA catering ex Perth ? Almost every J class VA flight out of Perth I have had over the past couple of years has had very averge to poor catering so given comments here and other articles I was wondering if QF use the same mob!!

  • Virgin Australia business class: a real game-changer

    Over the past few year I always made sure I travelled to Perth on the VA A330 in Business Class as it was a real game changer but as it is now , Business on VA is not in any way shape or form  anyway near as  good a service on the B737.I flew Business Class Brisbane to Perth (B737) and ...

  • Island vibes await in the Maldives’ best resorts and hotels

    Truly a beautiful place but comes with a " WHOPPING " price tag. A villa by the beach is $1500 USD/per person/ per night . That's $3000 USD for a couple / night. This type of accomodation is for the very rich or the " Lotto " winners of which I am neither so obviously I won't be staying there.

  • Air New Zealand brings back first class suites

    Oct 26, 2023, 08:45 AM

    One does not have to look far to find a Business class seat that is light years ahead of Air NZ's ghastly current seat!!At least this is one of them and as  " AsiaBizTraveller" has said  even a 10 year old CX seat is vastly better.I for one will never fly with Air NZ again in those old ...

  • Cabin Divider

    I see from the comments that I’m not the only one who is not happy with this. But ..... I guess you can’t rush things along . Poor old VA have only had about 18 months+ to sort it out and make a decision. Obviously in the “too hard basket” or they simply don’t reall...

    Have VA installed a cabin divider on their newest B737's? Last time I flew on one ( Jan ) with the new seats the cabin divider wasn't fitted. VA have said they would put one in soon after the first trial of the new style seats and that was almost 2 years ago .

  • Does VA take its most frequent fliers for granted?

    Jun 24, 2024, 02:43 PM

    We have to face reality. Since VA's re birth it has emerged as a low cost carrier and is now noway near as good as it was prior to the restart and is no longer offering a high class service IMOP. I guess " we gets what we pays for " and whilst their service is adequate it's far down market fr...

  • VA's refurbed birds… opinions?

    Mar 01, 2024, 07:34 AM

    A few months ago I did a flight on one of them from Brisbane to Perth.I did not think the new seat was not any better than the old one and found the tray table was very close to my body. Overall I think the new seats are not a big enough improvement overall to warrant the cost. The problem with t...
