OK I've taken the liberty of summarising the responses so far: 7 - a very narrow majority appears in favour of poo remaining outside public places, such as glass-walled, carpeted meeting rooms where food and beverages are consumed, etc. 6 - in favour of babies being changed in such public...

Most definitely a first world problem ... or potentially a second world problem. I do consider myself lucky to live in a county where there is sanitation, should one choose to utilise it. ;) Unfortunately I have eyes as well as ears. :rolleyes: Please, please tell me you're just trying to...

Now I never attended finishing school and wouldn't engage in a debate as to which utensil to use to eat grapes, but I was left wondering the other night if even the most basic manners were no longer taught to young Aussies. (Please do not take this post as too serious or elitist ... that is...

I had a nice A330 experience in J, MEL-SYD. It was full, and I was the last passenger to board. The flight attendant at the door motioned to the one in the galley. He came up to me and asked me what I'd like to drink and then brought it to me individually. 5 min later he brought out the usual...

There were more job ads in October, this time for pre-opening staff who were required to be available to start at the beginning of November. But when I was checking in there a couple of weeks ago and enquired if it would be opening soon, the check-in agent gave me a look of complete disbelief...

I was expecting to like it! I think the chef must have been having a bad day.

I had the freekeh salad and pappardelle in the MEL lounge. Unfortunately tbey were both bland and extremely oily. The pumpkin and ricotta on the pappardelle were pureed, providing an early retirement home sort of texture. There were a few red flecks providing colour but no flavour. No amount of...

Hi Snowman If you're in the UK, couldn't you ring the Qantas UK number? +442086004300 LM

The pillow menu was in operation on QF10 yesterday. It's not like a paper menu kind of menu and no one offered it to me on either leg, but they produce them on request. I selected the softer down and feather option and it was really nice LHR-DXB - very large and reasonably squashy. DXB-MEL...

The upgrade fairy arrived in time for me to nab my favourite seat The 7 day upgrade window is by far my favourite P1 benefit. In my view, it's worth far more than an invite to the opera.

I received two (yes, 2) invites within an hour and 13 minutes: Madame Butterfly on Saturday 27/10 Cirque du Soleil on Saturday 28/10 I thought it was a bug, given the new FF website fiasco. Do they think I have no social life (correct) and therefore need to go out two nights in a row, and...

No SST contact details for me ... and I am a P1. I managed to locate the wheel by going into Manage Your Bookings via the app, selecting Upgrade Travel Class, which brought up the full website view, and then selecting Your Account. I took a screenshot of my lifetime SC tally for old times'...

The LHR drivers are very flexible. I always get picked up on the street due to my travel circumstances. I give them an indicative postcode when booking. The driver then rings/texts me from a mobile when he/she's close. If I'm somewhere difficult to find, I just ring back and provide directions...

My theory on this was that there is only one F host in DXB, and he/she gets assigned to the highest ranking F passenger. I keep seeing the same one (Lilian I think her name is), and sometimes she's given to me, sometimes not. But that theory was bedunked last week when there was a CL-bag tagged...

This may be old news, but I also asked about the opening date of the QF lounge. It's now been pushed back to October.

My travel pattern may be different to others - mostly LHR-SYD-LHR in F. I'm not sure how much of this is due to P1 v. fewer people in F, but on my past few flights, I've seen a positive difference. This may sound odd, but I've been treated more like a person. The thing that most annoys me about...

When I was at T3 last Tuesday, I was told at check-in to use the CX lounge; they used to always recommend BA. And there is now a QF sign at the entrance, which I don't remember seeing before.

I received a cryptic text on Saturday saying that my flight details had changed, with a 1300 number to ring. I couldn't see any change in the booking, so I rang the 1300 number. It was just a generic number with 30min wait times for someone to ring you back. So I rang the SST, and they were able...

I'm quite excited to receive an invite that I can attend. Thanks Qantas! Celebrating 30 years of Qantas Frequent Flyer together Dear LM We're celebrating an incredible 30 years since Qantas Frequent Flyer was launched. In that time, we've grown into Australia's largest and most...

The shuttle has a luggage rack inside the door. I caught it at the Holiday Inn, which took a fair while to get to T3 from. I don't remember the driver helping me at all. But they might if you look really overloaded. Do you have a J or F ticket with chauffeur service? That would be more...
