Are OW and QF partners picking at the carcass.

And personally I detest Skybed Mark 1.It has pressure points in all the wrong places for me.

That's fine. So there are Skybeds on QF domestic routes.

On about one in ten to fifteen flights IME on PER-SYD/MEL over the past few years, so I regard it as purely a token offering.
And even when it's scheduled, there's every chance it will be swapped at the last minute.

I am sure the rate is higher than 1 in 15 for the PER - MEL/SYD flights currently. You just have to know which flights have the intl 332's on them fairly consistantly.

Theqantassource is a good way to gauge the patterns of the domestic runs. On some routes it is more than a token offering for sure.

No I don't think any of the OW partners would view us as low hanging fruit. We are very small fish in the sea here.
Sounds like you had great service on CX, I too have had excellent service on my CX flights. I don't think CX have any intention of chasing us, it's simply a consistency of service.

Don't mention "low hanging fruit" around me please. Always having trouble with that!

I did a MH J 772 KUL-MEL sector recently. I found despite being angled like the QF Skybed MkI, the MH angled lie flat was actually more comfortable. The mattress and doona were made of a nicer, smoother material, and the back of the headrest cushion they pull down to put at one's feet seemed to mitigate most of the common problems around angled lie-flats.
