Do Qantas’ upgraded meals hit the spot?
Oct 03, 2024, 10:19 PMI appreciate the effort but I agree with the above sentiment - get the basics right like a good bacon and egg roll for breakfast, decent hot meal or sandwich for lunch and maybe a cake, scone or sandwich for afternoon tea and it will be a crowd pleaser. Style over substance isn’t going to w...

Qatar Airways to take 25% stake in Virgin Australia
Jun 27, 2024, 02:37 PMNot a totally surprising move at a high level, and would bring investment and expertise to Virgin, as well as access to fleet renewal orders potentially etc. However that aside it just doesn’t sit well with me that a foreign state (with questionable human rights) owned carrier would ha...

Qantas to fly Finnair’s amazing new business class
May 19, 2023, 12:09 PMPretty sensible way of adding capacity quickly and with a quality airline. BA have had similar arrangements with Finnair for a while now and having travelled on a few routes (like Nuremburg to LHR) it’s been a pleasant experience!

Reader review: Qantas ‘pop-up’ international transit lounge at Darwin
Feb 03, 2022, 10:02 PMConsidering the temporary arrangement I was really impressed with the offering when I stopped off in December. As mentions the staff were a huge part of that experience - they genuinely seemed keen to help and welcome guests, secondly a tiny touch but being welcomed into the lounge with a cold to...

New Priority Pass venue in Melbourne T1
Jul 10, 2024, 02:24 PMI’m not sure how you are paying $1,400. I have the Prestige (unlimited) Priority Pass membership which I bought through Accor ALL for €390 / $625. It works well for me with fairly regular travel and having the choice of a lounge if there is one, or $36 restaurant credit which I believe...

New Priority Pass venue in Melbourne T1
Jun 27, 2024, 03:15 PMFinally MEL has a venue that accepts Priority Pass in T1 (Qantas terminal). It’s called Pope Joan and located in the food court as you go through security. I’ve still to try it but it looked pretty nice from across the tables. Priority Pass holders can spend the usual - up to $36 alth...

October 2023 Qantas International
Oct 11, 2023, 11:03 AMOriginally Posted by reeves35 QF has a crew base in London with a payscale significantly less than legacy Australian based crew. QF9/10 between PER and LHR and QF1/2 between SIN and LHR will basically always be crewed by this staff. When I flew QF10, I got talking to the flight attendant who had ...

Experience on Sri Lankan right now
Jul 06, 2022, 12:10 PMGiven the economic situation in Sri Lanka right now I wondered if this is impacting Sri Lankan airlines. There are reports of additional fuel stops being made in India as there is no aviation fuel in Sri Lanka at the moment. I'm due to fly with them to Europe soon and considering whether it might...
