Review: when Qantas first class is the best business class
Mar 06, 2024, 05:24 PMNo, even the daytime flights I've flown it on have had J bedding, as they should at the very least. I don't expect the F bedding or service, but would definitely expect something.Same with the AY operated QF flights to SIN (and soon BKK), sadly they use QF bedding, rather than AY, but one takes w...

Review: when Qantas first class is the best business class
Mar 06, 2024, 05:14 PMI've managed to get the F cabin on a J ticket twice now, first time the seats were available from booking for some reason (I'm only WP), second at T-80 as you say. Even at 2:15am, the remaining 8 or so seats filled up within 4 minutes, I was not the only one with a 2:10am alarm set!OQL is in terr...

Review: Qantas Finnair A330 business class, Sydney-Singapore
Nov 03, 2023, 05:45 PMActually, I found the seat quite comfortable - I suffer from chronic back issues, and the ability to comfortably lay on my side was a bonus.

Losing Platinum Status

Is Qantas Australia's worst airline?
Dec 13, 2021, 08:27 PMOriginally Posted by Ttravels Qantas is a two-speed experience, depending whether you have FF status.I’ve heard enough anecdotes to understand that the phone wait is at times painfully long. It would appear to be staffed for normal loads, without sufficient resilience built in for days wher...

Borders getting tighter
Aug 20, 2021, 10:48 PMI am hoping this latest situation finally puts a lid on this ridiculous notion that zero is achievable. Just need to get McGowan to take his rose tinted spectacles off now. If anything resembling normal is ever going to come back re international travel, there will be cases, and not just a few li...
