    Qantas Business Class meals & menus

    May I ask why Qantas is reluctant to offer Garlic bread as an option in its bakery? I found sourdough is very chewy and difficult to eat on a flight. I suppose garlic bread is very popular for Asian customers and this would have an improvement to its inflight offerings.

    “new” QF B737-800s

    I suppose his bet maybe correct where now Jetstar is the biggest revenue driver of Qantas Group. Yet he has left the premium flyers behind. Why would we wanted to fly Jetstar when Business Class is not available? I think if the Boeing 737 would have its interior refitted, it would be the same...

    New Cathay Pacific 777-300ER interior

    So it appears to me that they are moving the Aria suite B77Ws to CX100/101 instead of CX161/162. This would be an improvement as it will allow Australians a more consistent journey to go back to where they come from (the UK) on Aria Suite for the entire journey.

    Qantas' New A321XLR

    I suspect this is the likely case with FY results out on 28th August they might have route announcements for the A321XLRs. I do hope there will be more orders coming soon.

    Qantas' New A321XLR

    I really hope this is soon and available by the end of the year. I am sure international students would love this service out of CBR to SIN, as changing at Changi would bring great convenience for Chinese international students at ANU.

    Qantas' New A321XLR

    VH-OGB has arrived BNE as QF6045 an hour ago. I hope A321XLR can roll out into service soon.

    Qantas' New A321XLR

    VH-OGB is currently en route to Bangkok/BKK and is rumoured to arrive in Australia by Monday morning as QF6041. Not sure which port will this plane arrive, but likely will be in time for results announcement on Thursday this week.

    Qantas Project Sunrise goes ahead, 12 new A350-1000s ordered

    I am disappointed that other premium ports in Asia such as HKG and HND are not getting these 4 class A350s. Surely the demand for premium cabins on those routes should have been high.

    Qantas PER-SIN schedule change 26 Oct

    I am disappointed that SYD departures cannot go beyond 2300 from SIN, which means less choice for late night arrival into Singapore and then change for SYD service. Also, I suggest the early departure to SYD is not helping with jetlag neither...

    Qantas PER-SIN schedule change 26 Oct

    The new QF71 schedule actually provided East Coast residents a much needed early arrival into Singapore. QF71 now arrives SIN at 1555, and it allows connection to CX716 instead of the 8pm departure to HKG. Those in East Coast can hop on the 6am departure ex-SYD, then connect with QF71 and will...

    Jetlag minimisation/avoidance strategies

    Sorry to revive this topic, but every time when I am flying into Australia, I just been suffering from severe jetlag that takes 1 - 2 days to recover, and I am talking a short flight like Singapore - Sydney. As Qantas only offers overnight service and I am unable to switch to other airlines, is...

    Western Sydney Airport (WSI) Discussion

    P1 Rebrand

    It seems Platinum has rebranded too. My Kangaroo went black. I wonder a charcoal coloured barbequed kangaroo is going to be chewy.

    Japan overtakes the USA for fourth spot in favored destinations for Aussies

    I think China market is a bit saturated provided there are plenty of Chinese carriers now flying to Australia. Yet Vietnam is the one Qantas should be watching. There are not that many carriers flying directly from Vietnam to Australia and Australia only has Jetstar service to HCMC. I believe...

    Major changes to Velocity Frequent Flyer announced 17/10/24

    Does it meaning failure in Virgin's pricing strategy, or offering a inferior J product that no business travellers want to fly Business with Virgin? I can imagine J should be the money making product for Virgin, and they should make it attractive to fill up J cabin every flight, or else their...

    Major changes to Velocity Frequent Flyer announced 17/10/24

    I actually struggling to understand the rationale behind Business Class SC earn rate is the same as Economy Choice/Flex fare. So Virgin Australia is not encouraging passengers to fly Business because the earn rate would be the same as Economy!? I suppose it is a common sense that Business should...

    Cannot redeem Cathay's new URC route from Qantas website

    Cathay Pacific has recently launched URC (Urumqi) service and it has yet to appear on Qantas Website. I wonder when and how should we notice Qantas about this so QFF can redeem points for Cathay's new URC route? Thanks.

    Recent QF SYD-MEL fly-ahead/standby experiences?
