Koala Class

[Cool Cat Phil]

Just found these photos on the Qantas Facebook page in relation to Australia Gifting 4 koala's to the the Singapore Zoo, celebrating 50 years of Singapore's independence.

I'll have to say that Koala is quite a poser for the camera

So this has got me thinking when do the Cats get their own class to travel in?

We are after, amongst the 'coolest' of the animal species are we not?

Right away I thought a caption for this could be "What, do I look like a kangaroo to you?"

And Good Old MSN has them flyiing in First Class.

Gum leaves, hot towels and maximum cuteness: What happens when four koalas are let loose in first class - 9news.com.au

Shame its a 737 J Class and Not an A380 F Class shown

QF fly the 738 to Singapore now?

 

[AustraliaPoochie]

I thought that the Koaka was in a 330 J class seat.
Window shades are down so can't see if plane actually flying if not eh?

 

[Spongbob]

Is that a reconfigured A330 economy seat?

To quote famous words

Tell them they are dreaming LOL No definitely J class 738

 

[AustraliaPoochie]

Maybe.
Could also be even on one of my beloved old 767s though.
Edit: first photo, behind the FA, it's the divider between 737 Y and J.
Can't be a 717.
Great spotting!!!.
737 it is.

There are other ways to tell it's not flying. That grey thing on the seat is a dead give away. An unrestrained wild animal at 30000 feet, I think not.

It is definitely not an economy seat.

Appalling. Koala is not wearing shoes and has feet all over the seat. Inappropriate attire for business class !!

It is a Boeimg 737 800 and I would go so far as to say it is a BSI aircraft and relatively new. Look at the first and second picture and you will see the tell tale blue lights of the BSI then look at the curtains dividing J to Y indicating three rows of J I believe this is unique to the 737. Also look at the elliptical shape in the center of the isle, again a clear indication of a 737 800 BSI.

That koala just wants to go home. Know the feeling :/

Bad advert for QF if it makes people think that's what their F class offering is...

Its not Qantas they don't mention anything on FB its down to pure poor bad reporting.

It's not First class, nor is it a hot towel. If you look closely, our little furry friend is being offered bespoke Qantas pjs! All part of the #KoalaClass service.

 

[get me outta here]

Looks like the furry one is being looked after by Angelina Jolie's sister.

Exactly this is First Class

At least they didn't (more like couldn't ) put their little feet on the bulkhead.

 

[AustraliaPoochie]

Pi** take, wonder if the marsupial got access to the QP or the international J lounge... edit: more so the international J lounge, seeing its going J international.

Sorry to bump this thread, but I wanted to share an update on our favourite koalas.

They landed in Brisbane today following a successful diplomatic mission in Singapore - flying #koalaclass of course!
