New Look Qantas Web Site Launched

[bodog]

Looks like Qantas.com.au and with it the QFF section have been updated with a new look and feel - what do you think?
From my first look I can't see any new functionality added - but they might surprise us
I quite like the new design - feels like its going to be a bit easier on the eye to pick up on content

Its turned a good website into a good website. I like the new tool bars in the Your account area.

Is this the same one that reared it's head (by accident) recently?

For those of us cursed with slow Internet, it seems to load pages a lot quicker than before.

If you mean last weeks false start, yes, looks like they have made it more stable, time will tell.

I just get to watch a little red dot move across the screen. Much like last what happened last time......

I used to get paid to do that, except the dot was not red!

It broke my Consume App's ability to check my QFF account.

I had to clear all cookies for qantas.com before it would work.

The site just looks cleaner now. I think I will like it.

It's OK. Not much big change - stuff looks a bit bigger, more clinical looking, font changed from Verdana-type to Arial-type. Some of the other pages (e.g. booking engine) are still in Verdana-type and old motif, so not exactly a change there.

I'm not sure it looks more contemporary than the old one.

At least for most part that I can see, it doesn't take a hell of a lot longer to load than the old one.


Overall, not sure if the change made things better (good value for money and time), but at least they didn't slow it up (as modern web site transformations tend to do, a la SQ).

I think it is ok - though the duplicate functions/toolbars on your account page seem... duplicated...

Disappointing when you click through to your bookings and into an actual booking it is the same...

It looks "cleaner". Is the website one of the 91 reasons to fly with QF? It should be. It is one of the things QF has got right IMHO.

Looks a bit more modern. Glad they didn't overload it with flashy (i.e. slow to download, eager to crash) stuff. Nothing to complain so far...

This makes 92.

Just to clarify, I don't mean the change I mean the website in general. It has worked well for me. Reduced my time on the phone to QF to virtually nothing.

It did that for me until I hit the refresh button...

Looks ok, only suggestions are to tone down the red in the menus to a darker shade and reduce the amount of white a bit in general. There is too much red which makes it look like a vodafone website!

Needs a bit more grey, it's very white.

Agreed, normally I can spend ages browsing the QF site as it was easy on the eye, but now its so bright and red/white it doesn't make me want to stay on it for too long.
