• QF J service

    Oct 06, 2022, 04:33 PM

    My wife and I recently flew Mel/Fco/Mel, via Perth, domestic catering was poor and wine selection very average only one white was offered a Hunter Semillon. The transit in Perth was great. The QF International lounge at Perth airport was superb. Both of the long -haul flights were great, top-not...

    That's why I fly QF and will fly QF when international returns, no desire to transit in the ME.

  • Significant reduction in capacity 7x789 V 6 x 747. I fly the route on a fairly regular basis and the aircraft always appear to be full. A couple of options - 1] 4xA380 and 3x A330 via Per. 2] 7x789 and 3xA330 via Per. This would be subject to QF reaching and agreement with Perth airport.

  • If they do get the okay for an A380 into HND where do they get the A380 from. It really needs to move to a AM departure and PM out of HND?

  • Emirates Paid Upgrades

    Has anyone ever purchased a oneway upgrade on departure with EK. it would be from Y to J?Looking at the AM flight Mel/Dxb.

  • I am fan of QF fly with them regularly, Gold and just about to make P, but I think the domestic service these days can be a bit hit and miss. The welcome back can or cannot happen, the crew can be friendly or just do there job.The catering on short haul J is very average and unless someone else ...

  • QF will go for 6-8 F class on the ULR and that is why Boeing and Airbus will take a while to come up with the right aircraft, not to forget the engines, doubt whether QF would ever go for RR again. The config will be premium heavy; 6-8 F, minimum 70 J and 60 PE an...

  • Qantas and One World becoming a joke

    What a rant, just enroll in Enrich and fly Aust/KL direct!QFF isn't for everyone but it sure beats a lot of other programms.

  • Qantas flights QF 9/QF10 going cheap?

    Jun 19, 2018, 02:49 PM

    Not sure were all you guys are getting your info from but a friend of mine who works for QF says the 9 and 10 are full in J and W on every flight per/lhr/per. Non revs and upgrades hardly ever clear.

  • I think that SYD/DFW will move to 7 x 789 and they will introduce 4 x 789 MEL/DFW, JNB will transition to 4 x A380 and SCL 3 x A380. They may even drop SCL and codeshare on LA, rumours have it that LATAM want to go SYD/SCL non stop. If and when the AA JV is approved Brisbane will get a daily AA...

  • VH-ZNB Boeing 787-9

    May 11, 2018, 03:41 PM

    Haven't come across any issues with the aircraft though have only travelled on it once, Mel/Lax. Good flight, food and wine great but, champagne good old Duval Leroy, still something better than Jacquart that I encountered on one flight last year.

  • Qantas not only competes with heavily subsidised carriers but also has to try and serve all major Aussie markets. QF Perth's new International service only work as they can consolidate flights and hub passengers in from other parts of Australia, also using T3 and T4 allows it to maximise the util...

  • I was Platinum for a number of years before dropping back to Gold so I have really noticed the difference, agree the Melbourne International lounge is dreadful, crowded in the mornings, dark and depressing and very average food offerings. Sometimes I just go to Vue for a coffee and wait for my fl...
