Thanks for all the responses. Sounds like row 24 will be just fine. I've flown PE in the 747 but this will be the first time in PE on the A380. I've been fortunate that previous A380 flights have all been in J - paid, points upgrades and once an op-up at the gate from SYD-LHR (after 40 years...

My partner and I are travelling QF 1/2 in August in PE and have selected 24 A/B in both directions. These seats are at the front of the PE cabin with loads of legroom but we are worried the area in front of our seats will be an area of congregation with people waiting for toilets, stretching...

Thanks for the TR. Watching the video of the built in stairs being lowered bought back fond memories of the TAA and Ansett DC9s. I haven't seen a B737 with this feature before. Makes lots of sense for LCC and other airlines that don't always have access to aerobridges. I release it would be...

Well I know Ms Kelly flies with QF. We were on the same flight last week SYD-BNE and it was a bit of a shocker...turbulence prevented service for at least half of the flight. The crew did well in the short time they had. FWIW, I'm with the 'wishful thinking' camp and expect we'll see AJ at...

Thank you both. I did as you suggested and indeed, it was sorted very quickly and with apologies from QF for the inconvenience. I was thinking there must have been some existing clause or some changes that I'd missed, so I really appreciate your prompt advice. Cheers!

I've booked two 'red e-deal' economy fares for partner (SG) and I (WP) to travel from BNE to SYD on QF551 in August. We know it's a short flight and wouldn't usually bother, but on this occassion we were hoping to use points to upgrade to business as this is the beginning of an overseas holiday...

I was on 551 on 27/8 (BNE-SYD) sitting in 23B. Welcomed by name at gate and on boarding. CSM approached soon after take-off, welcomed me back and asked if there was anything she could do to make the flight more comfortable. Given it was such a short flight, I said I was fine. She seemed...

Thanks Dale. Would be lovely to travel in first, but this is a cash trip for two, which is why we are looking at the reasonable J fares with MH. However I have OWE status so we will get to enjoy the F lounges and some other perks along the way. I've now seen a few pics of the J seat on the net...

Thanks very much for this helpful info - very appreciated. The conflicting reviews out there were making it less than clear. Maybe not perfect, but the seats sound fine and make MH a serious option for me. And I've always wanted to taste the satay ;)

I've read quite a lot of conflicting information about the business class seats on the A380 and am hoping someone on AFF can share their experience. I know the A330s that MH operate to/from Australia have angled lie-flat seats. I'm thinking this might be okay for a trip to Europe if the...

I was in the MEL J lounge this morning at 10.30am, a time which always seems barren in the food offerings. Too late for breakfast and too early for lunch, with just a few cups of yoghurt, toast, and a couple of dry croissants and pastries left over. I should have known better and not skipped...

This is what I was given also. I'm flying to MEL next week. Will be interesting to see if it happens again.

I flew BNE-TSV-BNE on Fri / Sat. I'm WP and was seated in 4D / 13C, with empty middle seats both ways. On the flight out of BNE, soon after take-off a FA came around with a tray and distributed small bottles of water to me and a few other passengers, mostly up the front. I could see the FA had a...

Thank you oz_mark. After taking the leap to finally make a post on this site, I was starting to feel quite despondent by the responses that were implying I was lying or having a "wind up". Like most of you, I'm a commercial aviation enthusiast with no ulterior motives. I'm no expert, but my...

Woops - it feels like only yesterday! And my QFF WP card says "valid end Oct 2014", as does my online QFF account, so I am confident I have it at least until then.

I was as surprised as you are, but I certainly didn't lodge a complaint! The status credits gained on the last day of membership showed up in my transactions the day after - i.e. the first day of my new membership year. I thought this may have been the reason? My flight to DRW was the...

I've been a loyal QFF for many, many years and attained WP for the first time last October, reaching the required number of SC's on the last day of my membership year. As a result, my WP status was given for a full 2 years - brilliant! The day after I attained WP, I flew BNE-DRW and rec'd an...
