This mustn't have made QF too happy when they wear the uniform in the QP’s.

But they’re normally in suits when travelling aren’t they? No branding on your suit?

It has been reported that Virgin Blue were going to become more active in sports, so I expect more to come....
Note VAustralia/Virgin have a deal with Australian Open (tennis)
Let's see now ... on a DJ 737, Premium Economy is 2 abreast seating in the first 3 rows for a total of 12, right? So, how do you accommodate an AFL team and supporting personnel in the manner to which they may have become accustomed? Why not swap seats forward and aft for each quarter of the flight?
I didn’t realise players and everyone on the team flew J on QF previously. Coaches and senior management might, but not everyone goes to every game, so I doubt it’ll be an issue. They’re not selling well anyway, or so I hear.
At least it gives the Gold Coast team an airline they can fly on :mrgreen:
This could serve as impetus for Virgin to improve their product. Nobody wants to see poor 6'10" Aaron Sandilands cramped in DJ Y.

Is it just me, or is that an unusually narky comment from QF?

Quite a few sporting teams use the Lounge now anyway.
I was in the Lounge in SYD three weeks ago and in walked the Wollongong Seahawks basketball team (ok, I had to look very closely at the badges on their shirts).

One would think that $8 million could be better spent on revamping their hard product though
Access to The Lounge: $ 35.00 (no more than 2 hours before flight departure)
Blue Zone seating: $ 50.00 (based on MEL/PER flight & assuming it's available)
In-flight snacks: $ 15.00 (a conservative estimate IMHO)
Total each way $100.00
We haven't even factored in the ubiquitous 'rogue aircraft' sans the IFE & PE seating either. That would rot your socks!
