    Good move by Qantas and they should take this to the whole International route.. Once flying from US , I saw almost 90% bus class empty and why bother with such a model when you can get good will and money/points from customers. I remember when I fly United, they always upgrade before even my...

    Should I jump ship to Qantas?

    What ever the issues with Qantas, there are no comparison to VA and QFF since QFF is a better global product , QFF got better support and nicely supported by the One world alliance... QFF is a 5 star product and VA is a 3 star product ...

    You should try Tok to Syd using Haneda airport since it is much closure to Tokyo than Narita and plenty of Bus. class to Sydney via Haneda. If you try Narita, Qantas always try to put you via Brisbane.. Haneda also short journey via train or taxi.

    Last two travel to Europe via Dubai with QF and EM was not that good experience even though I love Dubai lounge and food. One thing I hate is, the moment you are out of the plane and before transit you have to go through this hideous security barrier which I have not seen anywhere. After flying...
