Paper towels enhanced from lounges?

[Quickstatus]

I wonder if we can find a non-US made equivalent

The kleenex copy version (also mentioned upthread) are made in Thailand

Marie promises we still get proper ones in QF F MEL. Isn't she lovely? Had to nick down to Brunetti and get the team some Cannoli. They pulled out all the stops today.

Is it the same as what you were looking for?

Close enough to do the job

I’d suggest making a customer care complaint of all of the “enhancements” or lack therof in the lounges.

My recent enhancement was MEL J domestic lounge showers having black mould on the roofs of the showers. The customer care (Mike HBA) agent was fantastic and directed the concerns to the lounge manager of Melbourne domestic QC, J and CL. However lounge manager responding by advising it wasn’t mould (it definitely wasn’t dust or anything else and looked like the sample pics on a number of the mould removal specialist websites I visited to check), but in the same sentence advised they had cleaned it anyway. So the impression I got and have always got when lodging feedback to the customer care teams about lounges is the management team of each ports lounge brings their own flair and attitude.

Lastly linking the above issue to the discussion about paper towels, change of brand, removal, I suppose the showers might just have more “not mould”

Been like that for a while. Was like that on 26 April when I was last there.

PER J lounge has no towels either and just a single dryer. Given it takes at least 30 seconds to properly dry your hands, that's not nearly enough dryers for an entire lounge.

12th June intl J lounge in Mel. They are still hanging on in there. Clearly it's just domestic passengers that don't need to have dry hands.

I’m seeing other unwelcome devaluations in some domestic business lounges (I assume QANTAS Club is also impacted by this). Toothbrushes in paper packaging with a single use paper sachet rather than a plastic toothbrush with a small plastic tube of toothpaste.

Accor hotels use those damn paper sachet things. They're so impossible to use. I detest them!

In fairness, this type of product is probably getting ahead of inevitable regulation on plastics from states rather than just a cost saving,

Happy to say that they were back on Friday!
