Hi everyone, (very) late to the party for booking a US flight to the west coast (can be into Sea-Tac, SFO, LAX etc) in January. Dates are flexible, but it is peak season and I keep on getting an insane price for Philippine Airlines, business class @ around $4,850 return. This is less than half...

You are absolutely right, I need to hear those 14 announcements on the Mildura flight now boarding...

I would rather listen to music than the 30 public announcements on the same flight from two different attendants, in two different lounges... Just saying...

When will be the inaugural passenger flight? September?

Welcome to the chat, Ozbarbie. Qantas international catering is one disappointment after another. I travelled in economy SIN-MEL just after they decided they weren't going to use trays any more to place everything on - just a hot meal in a box (?) with some bread shoved on top - are they still...

Not surprising LATAM cancelled Sydney-Auckland. (In my experience) Despite the plane, the service in Business was appalling. For the lunch service I received two chocolate muffins, a packet of nuts and three pieces of cut fruit. They ignored me most of the flight and only selectively offered...

Just in reference to booking on Aunt Betty, I booked two business class tickets on Delta for my parents LAX-NYC return. They were downgraded to coach on both, and told they would need to talk to the booking agency for a refund (and there weren't any available business seats that day). Because I...

Small steps - lets just get them to put meat out for their toasties in lounge; then stump for a divider between coach and business, THEN widebody fleet announcement....

My experience is also a question. I have been stuck in Auckland (overnight) heading to Queenstown and then stuck in Queenstown (for two days) when AirNZ decided to cancel all flights due to weather and coming out of Queenstown (upon cancelation of flights for the entire day) they had no seats...

Flew from SFO - SIN about a month ago and worked and streamed content online for pretty much the entire trip. There was only one spot where it droped out for a few minutes. Free to all KrisFlyers. I loved everything about that flight and airline.

Sydney VA lounge is appalling on many levels - the crowding, the crowd, the lack of cleanliness, the space and lack of seating - but the catering deserves special mention with treats such as potato in a wrap (carb on carb anyone?) so unappealing it means they never have to worry about running...

Take a $9 subscription to Gyoza and search busines and first and keep the destination vague like Australia to Africa, then search the month you would like to travel. I got a trip back from the US (Seattle) to Australia in October (Melb), but it came through on Emirates using Qantas points - one...

Am I the only one that loathes ATR's? Boarding from the back and having a front row with no exit is incredibly claustraphobic... I almost flipped out when I got in my first one and was give row 1... Yes back rows are where you need to be - but something about the design feels like a lack of...

So the Daily Telegraph is reporting today that the Business Cabin divider in the new refitted aircraft is causing issues for the staff and they have provided a response reiterating a fix: "Another decision that has contributed to passenger hostility towards crew was to remove the cabin...

Well that was the CEO on radio today so.... They ain't going to be cheap...

If there is so much capacity why don't the (announced) introductory fares reflect that and even by Jayne Hrdlicka's comments today about $10K lead in business class tickets to London doesn't reflect that either....

Just to be clear there will be (eventually) 28 new weekly flights between Australia and Doha. This does not translate into any new flights onto London/Europe etc, so the excess capacity is literally to a place no one wants to visit. So don't expect $5K business class airfares anytime soon to...

Took V870 Business from Sydney-Melbourne 5.30pm departure (left 30 minutes late) on 08 December. Lounge was a zoo (as usual) and unfortunately couldn't get on an earlier flight as every seat was booked. Was on one of the refurbished 737-800's with the new (more comfortable) business seating -...

You have misread my comments. Their lounges don't just need new chairs, they need to be seriously expanded and new ones built (Hobart, Cairns etc). Sydney is a disgrace and a couple of new chairs won't do anything for the capacity issues it faces. Also on the planes, they need smaller planes...

Virgin is in desperate need of a capital injection, not overseas flights. Their lounges need updating and expanding (looking at you Sydney), they need more and different planes (one plane does not suit all routes) and their web/app product needs a serious overhaul. According to the Financial...
