    ALL QF's 330's to get lay flat Business seating - Including Domestic

    The iPads when they first rolled out on the 767s were actually okay and pretty usable I thought. They just needed more content, which was easily solved by loading the server up. However, as time wore on and nearer to the end of life of the 767s, I noticed they updated the iPads with newer...

    ALL QF's 330's to get lay flat Business seating - Including Domestic

    I think QF have indicated that Singapore will be the focus for the initial launch for their upgraded international A330s. Given that they have said that by March there will be two upgraded A330s flying internationally, I would presume the first two aircraft would only be rotated between QF81/82...

    Something's definitely up...for the A330s

    I believe both the Virgin and SQ A330 aircraft actually have the same seats in J and Y, with the only difference being the size of the screens in Y -- 10" on SQ and 9" on VA. However, the VA aircraft have a very new age bland colour scheme whereas the SQ cabins come across as being more earthy...

    Does MH release OW award availability nearer date?

    Hi Matt, I am aware that the website does not show MH availability and was on the phone to them. The lady told me there's no availability which stumped me a little as the flight is showing as I2 on EF. There are no seats showing as allocated on EF, which leads me to think the flight is wide...

    Does MH release OW award availability nearer date?

    Hi all I'm trying to redeem a QFF classic award on MH but there seems to be no classic award availability on the flight that I want even though it's showing as completely open (from EF). I was wondering if anyone knew whether MH releases more award seats to OW members closer to the date of the...

    A330 - XFA/B - Refit?

    I think QF is doing the same thing with the QF767/652 BNE-PER-BNE flights becoming a 737 on some days...

    ALL QF's 330's to get lay flat Business seating - Including Domestic

    Judging from the seatmap, I'd say it's the same product as it had when it was with Jetstar, just with the middle seat in business class replaced by a workstation table.

    ALL QF's 330's to get lay flat Business seating - Including Domestic

    Looks like EBB goes back into service on 31 July -- QF501 BNE-SYD QF571 SYD-PER Then on 01 August -- QF650 PER-BNE QF597 BNE-PER The configuration of the aircraft looks like (according to the GDS) 34J / 269Y (although 57AB and 58AB might be blocked off on transcon services). You'll know...

    Which POS do they use to determine availability?

    Re: Flight Availability/Loadings & Upgrade Probability Help Desk Thanks mikew for your response. Appreciate it! I think the two agents I spoke to on the phone were pretty insistent and basically just said "there is nothing available in T" and that "you won't be able to tell the fare class...

    Which POS do they use to determine availability?

    Re: Flight Availability/Loadings & Upgrade Probability Help Desk I thought it wasn't with QF as well but trying to make a booking online confirms that it is POS specific. On qf.com, when booking SYD-HKG-SYD, there's no T class on the SYD-HKG leg whereas booking HKG-SYD-HKG, there is. I...

    Which POS do they use to determine availability?

    Hi guys I have a SIN-SYD-SIN ticket at present, booked in T class. The SIN-SYD leg of the ticket has already been flown. I want to change the SYD-SIN leg to SYD-HKG and have been advised by the call centre that it's okay to do so (they'll just combine half of a SIN-SYD and SYD-HKG T class...

    ALL QF's 330's to get lay flat Business seating - Including Domestic

    I think some of us are just annoyed at having to play the A332 transcon gamble again... Although the chances of scoring an A332 with AVOD is significantly higher now (12/13 of the -200s will have AVOD after EBB returns assuming a new IFE system has not been installed).

    ALL QF's 330's to get lay flat Business seating - Including Domestic

    Looking at one of the pictures of the cabin without the seat covers, the seats in economy look like they have the plastic black seat backs like on the new Weber seats on the current domestic A332s. I wonder if they have decided to replace the seats in economy with this refit. I was under the...

    Individual USBs in seats?

    No Yes No Yes Essentially, only the refurbished 747s, and the A380s have it.

    QF51 & QF52 - Business Class - Bring back the Full Breakfast Option

    To be quite brutally honest, it's not like they tasted any better individually prepared than before. At least previously, the service seemed to flow more smoothly. Now it just seems shambolic (in my experience, at least). Really not a good look for business class I have to say...

    QF51 & QF52 - Business Class - Bring back the Full Breakfast Option

    I think the issue with the day flight up to SIN (QF51) is that the whole big and small plates concept seems to be a lot more work for the crew. In my experience, they seemed really flustered and disorganised with the lunch service and it was almost 3 hours into the flight before I got my big...

    Tale of 2 brekkies [or Qantas "Cafe" Breakfast Sucks!]

    It's quite possible that the reason breakfast has become a continental option is because very few passengers will be able to have a full cooked breakfast barely 2 or so hours after they had dinner (or supper). This problem is exacerbated on the south-bound flights into Australia as time is...

    Tale of 2 brekkies [or Qantas "Cafe" Breakfast Sucks!]

    There is no cooked breakfast in Y on the Asia-Australia overnights. It is the continental option -- one piece of raisin bun with yoghurt and a juice.

    Virgin Australia’s free Wireless In-flight Entertainment system

    That is somewhat true -- but the actual WiFi transmission appeared to be on all the time on my flight last week down to MEL on VH-YIT. I could watch stuff while still at the gate until just before we started taxying, and almost immediately after liftoff. And it seemed very smooth... in fact, I...
