I don't quite get if cafe breakfast is gone, or its still there but with eggs as an option?
Also I noticed this doesn't include Asia routes??
Did they drop CD so they could offer Eggs on the flight??
The airline has taken plenty of flack for its cafe breakfast which typically consists of a bowl of muesli or other cereal, a fruit salad, yoghurt and a bakery item such as croissant or toasted sandwich.
Barstow also confirmed that Qantas would introduce its ‘Select on Q’ pre-flight meal ordering to international economy class this year, allowing passengers to choose their inflight meals online before they even step on the plane.
A provisional HOORAY!!! (until i confirm it's decent!)

And I assume this is being introduced as yet another optional extra the punters can choose to purchase ...Also good to see this from the AusBT article posted above:

ExBKK, HKG, SIN, NRT....all seem fairly Asian ports to me (at least the way I've read the ABT article, there will be egg dishes as an extra option pre arrival into OZ)
Can you imagine the confusions in economy as the stewardesses and stewards try to hand out pre ordered meals with seat swaps and all the rest of shifting that goes around.
I think it will create a nightmare for the economy cabin crew who already battle to keep 300 or pax calm etc during long flights.
This is excellent news. QF has shown they are capable of listening to their paying customers after all.
Hopefully this will continue

That's a fair jump to that conclusion. Could have just been a random move that just happened to be in the right direction. Statistically speaking, how many poor "enhancements" in a row could they possible do in only the negative direction.
</tongue in cheek>
It's not that big a jump. Red Roo has been taking note of all the complaints about the Cafe Breakfast and also reported to us that something was going to be done about it.
In this case, QF have listened and have responded in a positive manner. Long may this attitude continue, indeed. Although it might be better if they didn't make the stupid decisions in the first place that result in all the complaints!
Well, it definitely appeared as though the Cafe Breakfast had been replaced by something involving eggs on QF6 the other day as the menu showed an option with eggs. Lovely I thought before going to sleep. The only problem was I did not get offered any food at all, just juice and tea. My wife wasn't offered anything at all and a couple of other pax appeared to be offered drinks only. I guess only being half awake prevented me from asking for it, but I really shouldn't have to. The service from one of the two FAs on the top deck was decidedly lacking from the manner in which the safety demonstration was given to not offering pax food.
QF, what on earth are you up to?
IIRC you are given a menu to tick what you want and pre-order at dinner.
