Qantas Perth-London: will you fly direct, or connect via Dubai?
Apr 21, 2017, 08:39 PMI loath the Dubai pitstop security rigmarole so if the price was favourable I'd like to try the direct from Perth option. Might just be too long on an aircraft but worth investigating for me anyway.

When is it acceptable to recline your airplane seat?
Nov 28, 2016, 07:48 PMPlease just do a courtesy glance backwards before you twat your seat back to full recline! I get a veg meal and on a large aircraft I am often dining at least half an hour before other passenger, who don't realise I am eating. I often have to grab my meal tray to stop in ending up on ...

Seat allocation on QF10
Sep 06, 2016, 06:08 PMI fly LHR-SYD/MEL (in Economy) regularly and always choose a seat online but ask at checkin if there are empty rows they can move me to. I frequently have different seats for the LHR-DXB/DXB-SYD legs, they just issue 2 boarding passes. Maybe a different case in J.

UAE tightens ban on VPNs with jail time, fines of up to A$725,000
Jul 28, 2016, 06:30 PMYet another reason why Australia's flag carrier should not be aligned with the flag carrier of a country like this. I hate being forced to fly via Dubai on my way to Australia from Europe. I hope the partnership is not renewed when it comes to an end.

Could fitness centres be the next 'big thing' in airport lounges?
Jul 20, 2016, 09:29 PMYes! I often think a treadmill down the back of an A380 would be great, weight considerations aside! When transiting I usually walk as far and fast as possible just to stretch my legs out!

Five tips for doing business in Japan
Feb 19, 2016, 07:22 PMOn the point of negotiation, Japanese culture certainly does make it hard for people to say no. I've experienced asking for something and having the person tell me they will check only to have them never return! I found it helpful to ask open questions that have a positive option to answer,...

Qantas rethinks inflight Internet for Airbus A380, domestic routes
Nov 19, 2015, 09:24 PMWe really need this for LHR- SYD/MEL routes! A quick check at Dubai is great but it would be reassuring to be able to check in on the 14 hr stretch between DXB and SYD, no one would be sleeping that entire time!

Qantas to axe seat selection fees on most international flights
Sep 15, 2015, 11:41 PMLove Qantas but after paying £900-£1600 for a LHR-BNE economy return, being asked to fork out an extra $50 for seats really feels like a kick in the teeth. I hope they remove it all together some time. Just be honest and include it in the ticket price. Feels incongruous to...
