QF First to have Aesop Amenity Kit onboard and products in the F lounges

[Princess Fiona]

I am soooo excited about this!!!
QF F Amenities have long needed an overhaul.

This is part of a range of changes to F. Some start from tomorrow and some over next few months.

Do Aesop have a range of paper hand towels?

Do Aesop have a range of paper hand towels?

I came here just to ask about that as well

I got into trouble for saying that a few weeks ago

They don’t need to. They currently have paper towels in all if the Flounges.

 

[Coathanger]

Proper enhancement.

Difference between contents and the kit itself?

Just the whole package.

I think it was the bag itself wasn't it vs contents. I don't think anyone would argue with the contents but the bag itself tends to have varied opinions.

The article I posted says this will be included in the amenity kit.

Yes! After CX’s partnership with Aesop ended I always wondered why QF didn’t swoop in given the obvious Australian connection.

Never really cared for the products from Aspar and LaGaia Unedited.

Will Aesop also take over the running of the First lounge spas?

Well a legacy Australian connection at least, Aesop is owned by L’oreal these days sadly.

Whilst that's true, they're still based out of Melbourne as the HQ i believe.

I hope they would given that Aesop offer facials in a few of their locations worldwide including Sydney and Melbourne.
It wouldn’t be a huge deal to do.
Switch products, tweak the menu of treatments, same staff as they are trained therapists.

I can’t imagine they will be going for Aesop in the bathrooms and onboard and continue with the existing provider for Spa products/ menu.
But hey I don’t run an airline

Yes, in Collingwood.

I think most people would still perceive Aesop as an Australian brand regardless of its legal ownership, just like they would with Tim Tams and Arnott's Biscuits despite these being owned by an American private equity and investment company.
