Has anyone recently done the short KLM tag on flight from Bali to Singapore or vice versa? We’re doing it over Xmas this year, was a very competitive business class fare. I’m just wondering how “complete” this experience will be on such a rather short flight. Surely we will be able to test out...

Flew AA in First last night from MCO (Orlando, FL) to LAX and what a truly awful flight this was! I usually defend American Airlines when debating with friends and family who often -unfairly so- compare it with the likes of Singapore Airlines or Emirates. I always thought AA was pretty good...

Yea- pretty much the standard on many airlines, unfortunately. I flew Emirates First (lucky me!) from Sydney to Dubai yesterday. Having my scheduled shower around 3 hours before landing which happened to be right when crossing India which often is a bit of a rattle in my experience. And, not...

Couldn’t agree more- this should not even be a debate.

Happy for you! Though I must admit, I’d happily forego one night of accommodation for a flight in First class ;)

You must just have simply bad luck! I’ve called QF a lot over the last few weeks and always got through to Hobart, just a lowely WP. Always calling in around 3 minutes to 9am, not sure if that has to do with it. One single time I was waiting on hold for ages and then got suspicious so I checked...

This is totally bonkers, flight planning on a coughpy whiteboard o_O Anyone who has ever flown them can thank their lucky stars that those Maxxes all stayed in the air while they needed to, seriously.

Love how it is not any salted nuts. They are PREMIUM and also even from Australia!

Frantically googling PBO airport, did I miss anything?

Those poor souls will be the last ones to find out anything but still everyone is asking them… I don’t want to be in their shoes!

Gosh- who wrote this highly idiotic and grammatically incorrect description for the champagne? Expresses the feminine femininity? :rolleyes: I might be the only one ever saying this but I actually quite enjoy the fact that Qantas spaces out their meal service. Whenever I get to countries like...

The duck looks and sounds great, definitely gotta try this next time!

Oh, as many on here seem to know by now, I’m with you on the pumpkin ;) But champagne is a different matter- we’re currently planning our wedding for next year in the Champagne. I obviously love the drink but even more so I love the region. One of the most amazing spots on this planet imho...

I remember coming back to Sydney on the very first flight getting us out of New Zealand after the 4th or 5th Covid lockdown. All dead still over in Auckland but over here, there were already 3 A380s at Sydney airport (I believe 2 EKs and one SQ from memory but could have been QF) and we got so...

Thanks a lot! I tried to find a First thread before asking on here but somehow it did not come up in the results. Sounds like Cuvée Louise is a standard at the moment. I’ve just been to their cellar door in Reims a month back or so and I would not mind that drop all night at all! :p

Baaaah- Qantas! You’ve outdone yourself again, it seems. What the heck is this sad little piece of white bread with some tired lettuce leaf and a slice of boring supermarket bacon in the midst of it??? Unless it tasted surprisingly nice? Crusty French baguette, some churned butter and...

Thanks mate! :D It’s probably not even worth speculating but I wonder if “the bot”, or “the drone” as one of Qantas’ call centre agents called the other day, uses quite simple block out periods for school holidays? We will most likely never find out and I’m happy that many of us get lucky from...

Oh- that’s the top of the range from Piper-Heidsieck, isn’t it? I’ve honestly never tried that one so wouldn’t mind giving that a go!

Have just scored a First classic rewards seat on QF12 in October. As I haven’t been lucky enough to fly QF since pre-Covid, does anyone know what champers they tend to serve these days? Long time ago, it used to be the Taittinger Comtes and then for many years, you get Veuve Grande Dame which I...

Had tried various flights from the US West coast to Australia and despite plenty of I (and/or even A) availability, computer said No on all of those requests. Realised only when the lovely lady in Hobart pointed it out that it’s school holiday time early October so there was that. I don’t have...
