I’m on a roll. Another P1 upgrade - on my MEL - SYD return. Very much appreciated

I think if you read back through this thread you’ll find the overall experience is very hit and miss. There are some great examples of P1s being looked after and also some examples similar to yours. I have had both as I would say have most P1s. As I think I and others have said previously, P1 is...

Received a nice little P1 upgrade on my first domestic flight in ages.

Jeez, pretty poor service and food for F. Though I've often found that from o/s ports (LHR, SIN, DFW) my F experiences are never as good as ex-SYD. Your glacial pace reminds me of my F trip to LHR last November where the only F elements were on the ground in SYD and SIN. On board, a lot was...

Not surprised. I suspect there were a lot of people that were still holding on to status through COVID extensions / status keeper initiatives with SC rollovers etc that are really only now starting to fall away. I will be one of them - my SCs reset to zero on Monday and whilst I have qualified...

I would argue that QF sometimes treat P1s like WP (from my experience) and that I've had better experience on other airlines (EK, CX, AA) as a P1 (and WP) than on QF too. Agree with everything that RichardMEL has said and it's not worth going for. Even the VIP Team are limited in what they can...

Yes agreed about failings in the past. The best I have done in the was to have the meal out of Syd going to DFW 'delayed' (as I had stuffed myself in the lounge) by asking to have my meal served at as the last pax in F (was in 1A). Given the glacial pace of QF service this was sufficient. Re...

I feel like in years gone by there was much more variety across the seasons whereas now it's pretty much the same menu year round with some minor tweaks.

Disagree. Not wanting to speak on PF's behalf, I would assume she is referring to something like Row 4 on the 737 (similar to row 11 on A380). They do have extra legroom and are only able to be selected until T-80 by P1's (FOC). If this was removed and opened up to the public for a fee, then...

If that is the case then that's further devaluation of P1 as I can just be a non status pax and purchase the seat. A few $30 'upgrades' throughout the year is a lot less than flying to attain P1!

Why? NP was brought into the QF fold when James Strong was CEO, you then had Geoff Dixon prior to AJ so is now onto his fourth CEO whilst working with QF. Doesn't seem that a change in CEO changes his influence...

Bannockburn becoming the new Humpy Doo based on the number of times it's written on that menu! In all seriousness though, I reckon that's one of the better looking menus and always like the more regional style / inspired dishes on the way to places like India over the usual garb served on the...

It's generally still been there. In my view, the wine they're putting in it doesn't justify decanting. Refer to F-Lounge thread for some examples of ~$20 bottles of wine in the decanter

That amount of travel honestly astounds me - 15,000 SC's in one year! The fact that a lot of that from your comments is / was done in Y and PE is even more impressive (and at the same time I pity you in a way). I love to travel, but certainly not that much.

There are a couple of old threads on this particular topic but are closed. Some interesting reading. What do you frequent flyers do for work? There was also a thread specifically for P1's: Platinum One people - what’s your job/business? Here is what I wrote there at the end of 2022: "Given...

The AU > North America menu was identical to my SYD>LHR menu from early November (well the SYD>SIN leg). We had the Duval Leroy Femme (I wasn't a huge fan) and do have to laugh and their reference to Krug and Dom. Would concur that all in all pretty uninspiring.

I could see them going down more of a revenue based status earning approach similar to some of the US airlines

No, no invite here. Where is it?

It was a joke said tongue in cheek :rolleyes:

Yes, just like the last CEO thought that the 'simpler and fairer' program changes were also going to be well received with all the 'enhancements' they made to the program...
