Hello people.

Please take the time with me with what i have to say just so that i can then understand how things works.

I travel often or at least travel once every year during christmas seasons. I go to Europe mainly on economy all the times. Ive never tried the business class seats before but when i walked past it i wonder what it would had been like to try it. But can be.... rather expensive i suppose!

Note that when i book my tickets online i choose Finnair. By adding brisbane to berlin and another separated ticket by doing Rovaniemi(finland) to brisbane. The one way ticket is a separated ticket from Berlin to rovaniemi (just to try get it way cheaper on a different cheap website otherwise if i did that on just one page on finnair the actual berlin to rovaniemi would be double to price to get there or it may not work.

From Brisbane to Singapore i believe the flights that i usually go with are the QF051 A330-300 Aircraft type Qantas. Each time i make a booking it seems im doing the very exact same routine destination stop overs and also the very same exact time slot. In this case my flight departures 1150AM from brisbane.

The part of the return from Hongkong to brisbane is the QF098 A330-300 Aircraft type Qantas.


Ok these are the most important part because these getting there and the return are operated by Qantas. The rest are by Finnair so that is a diferent matter for me to discuss else where.

When i travel it seems to be the same time slot but also the same A330-300 type qantas fleets.

Now that you know my trip.
My question as follow: What are the Business class seats are like on these 2 fleets i be on as in are they worth the try or not ?

Q2: I notice last time i walked past business class seats that not every business class seat are quite the same. For example when i saw people already seating down on business class seat and i walked past it... one business class seat has like a permanent wall against them... but the other business class seat behind that person has no wall against the side of the seat person. It seems like some seats has a privacy wall beside the person and the other seats do not and its more open on the corridor... So im not really understanding if every business class seat does have a privacy wall beside the seat or its a on and off depending the seat (number) ?

Q3: So for example i want to book my full travel online from home. I begin with Finnair website. Because mainly my trip will be mainly more by finnair. In that booking will show these Qantas fleets. Does this mean i be able to freely select the seat of a preference choice if desire online ? For example when i booked my economy trip i was also able to log onto Qantas website with my booking and was able to choose any seat on any of the economy seat. But this time if i book business class would it aloud me to select my choice preference on business class seat or will that not work online ? As ive never been on business class seat i have no idea. By the way there are 2 adults.. And we are wanting to book it all together online this is why i want to make sure that me and my partner be able to seat as close as possible together. However i don't no what limits or so are with business seats. (However i do always book 2adults tickets well in advance sometimes 8 months before travel) just to give me the power to select and anything else to it.

Q4: My last trip i was seated on Seat 29 economy by qantas (Brisbane to singapore) I don't no exactly what group is that on the plane. However i understand that this flight has business class seats way at the very front rows of the plane and then there is a mini group area on the second group rows usually next to the getting in and out of the plane area. So which is the best the very first group of the plane or the middle area second group on all this with business seats group? Sorry for the confusing.

Q5: Am i suppose to pre-order pay in advance meals online if i choose business class seats on these fleets by Qantas or is the actual food they supply on business class seats are for free just the very same concept as Economy ? The strange part was that with this trip... i was not able to pre-order no advance meals on the qantas economy... But i was able to select pre-paid meals in advance on any of the finnair fleets after that but not the qantas flights on this booking... It was just what they give you on the plane only. This is why i wonder if it would aloud me to pre-order meal or i shouldnt and just get what they give on business class.. Just like to know how this one works!.

Q6: Can every seat on the business class seat to these Qantas fleets be able to have a flat bed seat to be able to sleep or are all these not very comfortable ? Or am i suppose to tell the servent i want to have my seat flat down to sleep? Sorry i know it's a silly question. But just wondering as i would not want to distract anyone behind me or beside me on business class seat. So i dont no what to expect out of this because usually i am so sick of the economy been so tight and getting sore legs... very tight seats and very uncomfortable.. This is why i end up feeling headache and or disorientated for hours and hours on the plane by not able to get any sleep and having a better space between me.

Heres a quick highlight:

Brisbane to Singapore by qantas.
Wait a few hours at singapore to catch the next flights by finnair... to europe.
The actual return helsinki to Hongkong by finnair but then its waiting a few hours to catch the next flight which is then the Qantas flight from HK to brisbane for the return back home.

I really hope i can get as much as information given.

Please note that i know i can look this up myself. But when i do... lookin at images online the business class seats looks diferent then what i saw when i was on the actual qantas plane... different then some of the images i see online. This is why i want to really make sure what does the business class seats on these fleets by qantas are like... Because i do remember slighly what they look like with my own eyes but when i search for it online they seem to show seats slightly different shapes and styles that are not exactly how i saw it when i walked into the plane.

Best regards
Malissa.

The "servents" on board the aircraft don't have to put your seat down, it will be up to you when to do it, and it is done by pressing a button next to you.

Not being skeptical, but the OP's style is very similar to a previous member who I cannot remember the name of.

I'm predicting this thread to go on for a while...
