Qantas Business Class meals & menus

[mad_atta]

Totally agree with you on the meals. Business class is about paying for choice, especially on a 17+ hour sector. Let me decide if I want a three course meal or a quick supper before going to sleep.

Also, the mid-flight snacks are really poor. Not even a hot option!

@Daver6 the chicken sandwich was at least a toasted sandwich, though it's not obvious from the menu. It was also fairly tasty, even if the bread was hard as a rock.

But yes, a feeble offering for such a long flight. I've had twice as much food on QR flights of literally 1/3 the length.

Well, I'll be @MEL_Traveller and @vhojm!!
My Customer feedback with photos comparing my 2.5 hour CX flight with 3 courses to that subsequent QF 30 an 8+ hour flight clearly was taken on board

Congrats! While I don't have any expectation that it will make a difference, out if interest what is the best email address to send feedback to?

...and QF 7, October 2023. No menu, just pics.
The Aperitivo that's not even an entre: Arancini ball and a beer Had the champers and nuts on arrival.

A real entre: chicken satay and a cauliflower stir fry thingy. From memory was tasty and a good portion.

Looks like things are going screaminly downhill.

Sad to see the change. Though I think QF menus have mostly been going downhill for a long time now.

8pm is the cut off where Dinner flights become Supper flights. When the Northern Summer schedule starts, flights like QF30 become supper again.

Is it just me, or does that seem absurdly early? Especially for longer and/or westbound flights (where you're trying to make your body clock run later)? If you have to have a set time (which doesn't make sense to me, given all the variables like length of flight, direction of travel etc) then I'd have thought 10pm would be more appropriate. You can always offer an express dine option for people who want to eat less and then sleep.

Paging @DejaBrew - right up your alley!!

To be fair, that itinerary essentially just details the opening flights of a NZ status run

OT: very long day for an SC run/flight set!

Haha yes, we had 4 hours in Sydney to go into town for a bit.

Have a double status promo run/holiday in April that is MEL-AKL-MEL-NRT-OKA-NRT-MEL-AKL-MEL becuase it was much cheaper to book the Japan flights out of Nz. May be a couple of long flying days with 2 weeks of bliss in Japan.

Love it @vhojm

Yes, way too early. Again, at least give us the option to decide how much or little we want to eat!

We used to not eat much in the lounge expecting to enjoy the inflight catering on Qantas. We have now abandoned that idea unless on well, I guess, any other airline but Qantas. And MAS which is woeful.

Pretty sure I used the Customer complaint/ compliment form @mad_atta rather than filled out their generic post flight email.

I went with the compliments first, as the cabin crew were excellent and named them for recognition on QF30.

Not necessarily in the Complaints department, but I highlighted the difference in the Food offerings of 2.5 hours on CX, SGN - HKG.

I believe in constructive conversation.

Customer Care gave me 10,000 points for my feedback, not my aim but didn't knock them back!

Credit where credit is due and the crews, I believe, understand the short comings of QF offerings but make up for it with great service.

QF644 PER to SYD 8am departure.

No pdb. Some refreshing juice after take-off. Bacon and egg Turkish sandwich was pretty good. Nice change. Tomatoes looked good until I realised they were cold
