Hi. I'm booking a work trip (business class) and found QF 96 while playing around with schedules (I'm coming from JFK - more on that in a bit). I prefer the take-off and landing time of QF 96 for my return to Melb but noticed it is not an A380 but a 747...is it a refurbished 747? how comfy? Tell me about the comfort level of QF 96 business vs QF 94 (A380)...thanks!
Re: coming from JFK - Last year I had the pleasant experience of flying on AA from LA to NY (or was it NY to LA...can't remember)...anyway, I couldn't believe how much nicer AA business was than the junky old plane QF flies between JFK and LA. Now, I think taking AA is a bit more expensive so I can only justify it if I take an AA flight to make the earlier QF 96...as I know I will have to be booked on AA as the only JFK-LA QF flight is timed around QF94. Any thoughts on this (and why doesn't QF fly a nicer plane between JFK & LA)?!
For the Melb to JFK flight I'm staying a few days in LA so I definitely will be flying AA business class on that leg - happy me.
Thank you
