My experience is also a question. I have been stuck in Auckland (overnight) heading to Queenstown and then stuck in Queenstown (for two days) when AirNZ decided to cancel all flights due to weather and coming out of Queenstown (upon cancelation of flights for the entire day) they had no seats...

Flew from SFO - SIN about a month ago and worked and streamed content online for pretty much the entire trip. There was only one spot where it droped out for a few minutes. Free to all KrisFlyers. I loved everything about that flight and airline.

Sydney VA lounge is appalling on many levels - the crowding, the crowd, the lack of cleanliness, the space and lack of seating - but the catering deserves special mention with treats such as potato in a wrap (carb on carb anyone?) so unappealing it means they never have to worry about running...

Take a $9 subscription to Gyoza and search busines and first and keep the destination vague like Australia to Africa, then search the month you would like to travel. I got a trip back from the US (Seattle) to Australia in October (Melb), but it came through on Emirates using Qantas points - one...

Am I the only one that loathes ATR's? Boarding from the back and having a front row with no exit is incredibly claustraphobic... I almost flipped out when I got in my first one and was give row 1... Yes back rows are where you need to be - but something about the design feels like a lack of...

So the Daily Telegraph is reporting today that the Business Cabin divider in the new refitted aircraft is causing issues for the staff and they have provided a response reiterating a fix: "Another decision that has contributed to passenger hostility towards crew was to remove the cabin...

Well that was the CEO on radio today so.... They ain't going to be cheap...

If there is so much capacity why don't the (announced) introductory fares reflect that and even by Jayne Hrdlicka's comments today about $10K lead in business class tickets to London doesn't reflect that either....

Just to be clear there will be (eventually) 28 new weekly flights between Australia and Doha. This does not translate into any new flights onto London/Europe etc, so the excess capacity is literally to a place no one wants to visit. So don't expect $5K business class airfares anytime soon to...

Took V870 Business from Sydney-Melbourne 5.30pm departure (left 30 minutes late) on 08 December. Lounge was a zoo (as usual) and unfortunately couldn't get on an earlier flight as every seat was booked. Was on one of the refurbished 737-800's with the new (more comfortable) business seating -...

You have misread my comments. Their lounges don't just need new chairs, they need to be seriously expanded and new ones built (Hobart, Cairns etc). Sydney is a disgrace and a couple of new chairs won't do anything for the capacity issues it faces. Also on the planes, they need smaller planes...

Virgin is in desperate need of a capital injection, not overseas flights. Their lounges need updating and expanding (looking at you Sydney), they need more and different planes (one plane does not suit all routes) and their web/app product needs a serious overhaul. According to the Financial...

Just wanted to provide a trip report from QF94/LAX to Melbourne 07/11 - A380 Business. The scheduled departure of 10.30pm gradually was pushed out to 1.30am, which was a pain, but nothing you could do about it. Spent the time initially at the AA Flagship First Lounge, that (if you want to...

I avoid LATAM like Covid. They have a poor service culture - their catering never hits the mark and getting lit (yes having a few) is beyond a struggle. Don't spend your hard earned dollars/points on this d-list airline. I go via North America and connect for this one...

QF have been on the record that they won't do Martini's / Espresso Martini's / Negroni's etc or anything 'too heavy' on liquor in their lounges. A bit paternalistic but anyhow...

Why can't Qantas manage an entree or apetiser on a 14 hour flight? Seriously deficient. And that mid-flight menu is not particulary attractive in case you go to sleep on boarding... I thought they were going improve their inflight dining...

Just what VA needs when they are investing zero dollars into their seven lounges and Sydney is already looking like a dogs breakfast everytime you go in there. Their lounge network can't sustain an influx of new members with out some capital investment into what they are offering. Any other VA...

Am I the only one who thinks this is really light on for a meal. A 2 hour (?) flight and all you get is soup and some bread. No side salad, no dessert. Terrible.

So just did two J-Class flights: QF618 Melb-Brisbane @ 1.15pm-3.25pm QF714 Brisbane-Cairns @ 5.25pm-7.50pm Then I did the return on the same route. Catering/beverage service were the same: Pros: Great crew on both flights Decent main course Generous pours on wine/G&T etc WIFI that streamed...

So had my first Qantas A220 flight yesterday from Canberra to Melbourne. Here are a couple of observations: Pluses: *Great crew *Bar service (early afternoon flight) *Catering (biscuits and dip) *Personal space (in extra space seating) Negative: *Economy seat fabric like steel wool soap pads...
