Qantas to deliver ‘room service supper’ in A380 business class
Apr 27, 2023, 11:45 AMExperienced the SQ 'just one meal' concept this week. You can have it after takeoff (past midnight), or 2 hrs before landing.

Jul 17, 2015, 08:09 PMBronze is as good as the tin can the beans came in. QF PE is good, but not as good as when it was first offered.Upgrades depend on load, but Bronze are bottom of the barrel if allocations are tight, as they are for most flights these days.
