Same here - got told at gate that catering was not assured, however when onboard our CM made no mention of that. :)

VA908 BNE-SYD this morning. I was pleasantly surprised by the beep beep at the gate and being told I was not longer in 3A. Got to the end of the airbridge to see zero queue, and was welcomed onboard. J was full and our delightful CM was offering OJ and water as PDB. Once airborne, the offering...

By my reading you appear to be correct, as a Lite fare gives you nothing (unless purchased) and Choice or Flex give you 2 x 23kg bags. Unfortunately I don't you'd get much more than a cut and paste response if you complained though. 😑

In BNE for the next 30 minutes, can guest 3. Pretty quiet (for AM peak), however coffee line is long and the automatic machine is broken 😪 Chipolatas and scrambled eggs on the menu this morning.

Please don't give Bain ideas 🙏🙏

Spot. Freaking. On. Poor performance in baggage handling through and post-COVID also means that most travellers don't want to take the risk of their bags going to another destination, even if a "free" checked bag or two is included with the ticket. These days I'm only checking a bag if there's...

Poor weather would also be affecting quick turns at the moment as well. No entry/exit from the rear if it's pouring/stormy at BNE/SYD/MEL.

Same here. I applied for the Europcar status in early October and still nothing.

Sounds like Mrs Hawk as well....🤣🤣

That was on yesterday as well. Have they brought out the chicken sliders and onion rings yet??

Oops...my bad looking at the thread title (Airnorth) and not reading the post (Alliance). Having said that, the F70/F100 are generally fairly decent with both the pitch and legroom...and 2-3 isn't a bad configuration either. My question still stands...

Dare I ask what's cramped and unpleasant about an E190 as opposed to a 737-800?

In SYD lounge until VA989, can guest two. On the menu tonight, Chipotle chicken sliders with onion rings, vegetable biriyani with samosas, or chicken and corn soup. Not a bad layout tonight and lounge is about half-full.

I won't hold my breath on that getting fixed any time soon.... 😑 Thankfully we just pushed back. 1930ish out of BNE = 2200 into SYD I guess...

Departing BNE now, so ETA into SYD is looking like 2100-ish. [Edit] it gets better - now a 20 minute delay due to ATC shortages in Brisbane 😑

Cabin crew said apparently CBR wasn't an option, and we'd been over CFS before the decision to head back. Pretty murky here at BNE too..

Onboard VA954 at the moment...departed 80" late courtesy of unknown reasons (although weather in BNE has been poor today), then turned back to BNE after an hour in the air as SYD is closed due to storms 😑 3pm (958) and 4pm (962) BNE-SYD services were cancelled as well - and 5pm (970) is showing...

FYI a reasonable amount of Somersby in the fridge at BNE today.

In BNE lounge for an hour (or until 954 departs...), can guest 2. Turkey and cranberry on long rolls, fruit mince tarts, split pea soup on offer today. Quite quiet, which is always good :)

No Somersby isn't really much of a loss. Hopefully running down that stock to get something else (better) in... ;)
