A bit cheeky to include the DC-9s, in my opinion!

I wouldn't have really thought Bungendore would be large a enough place to have the honour of having a jet named after it. For most Canberrans it's a blink and you'll miss it distraction on the drive down to Batemans Bay.

Qantas have been featuring wines from the Bungendore area for their premium cabins for some time, I will drink to that!

Ah, well that changes things a little... I didn't think of the wine aspect of it... It's still a blink and you'll miss it place, but there are quite a few good wineries just outside of town around there...

Another 40 or so of new 737's with BSI and full IFE and I would be very happy
Oh and some actual 787's for QF and a 777X order

That is all

Seems like a perfect thing to offer to Platinum One members, rather than the press?
What do you think Red Roo?

Fitted out slightly better than a QF 737 I would imagine

 

[simongr]

Bet it doesn't have BSI though

I'm happy to fly the world in the 34Sqn configuration but not the Qantas configuration :!:
