    Herringbone J

    What do you think of the Herringbone seating configuration? So many airlines now use this once rare and unique configuration which seams to have very mixed reviews. I personally think the Air NZ version got it right, but what do you think? Would you pick it over a Mark II Skybed from Qantas?

    Regional Express alliance?

    Virgin Australia already has some sort of agreement with REX to allow seamless connecting flights between the networks, but wouldn't it make sense if VA is wanting to grow their regional network for the two airlines to codeshare?
