    I have an F booking for 2 pax on QF2 LHR-SIN next May 2013.

    New 737-800

    Sat on a new 737-800 tonight from SYD-ADL..........IFE in seats needed rebooting, but was still impressed. Impressed as I didn't have a 737-400 as too many of my ADL flights have been, impressed that the new plane didn't go to jet connect...and impressed enough to consider not shifting to VA on...
