Re: ALL QF's 330's to get lay flat Business seating - Including Domestic Hi pksw At the moment, the seat maps indicate (for both flights) that they're the old configuration (business class with a workspace in between the middle block of seats). One of EBO/P/Q/R. This can change anytime...

Hi guys Here's the situation - I've got two QF bookings with the following itinerary: ET#1: KA437/QF128 KHH-HKG-SYD ET#2: QF321 SYD-AKL QF321 is actually LA800 operated by LAN. I've rung QF up and the very lovely res lady has actually put on-carriage notes into both bookings so it's...

They are part of the five 744s that are slated to be replaced with the eight new B789s. The other two are OJM and OEB.

I was on EBC last week between SYD and MEL and can confirm that it does indeed have iPad minis in Y as well. This must be a recent development as I seem to recall that previously, passengers were getting compensated when they had to operate the east-west sectors with EBC and EBD. Looks like...

Hi everyone I'm probably asking a stupid question here but when we make a Book Now Pay Later booking and foot the $25 deposit, what happens if we want to make a flight change later before the ticketing deadline? So say the total fare is $320. We've paid $25 so the balance is $295. What...

At the moment, the A330-200s on QF5 and QF6 are the old international configuration cabins, which have the same seats as the unrefurbished A330-300s and the same Rockwell-Collins IFE (think small PTVs). See here: Photos: Airbus A330-202 Aircraft Pictures | Airliners.net From October sometime...

Hi everyone Sorry to dig up this old thread but does anybody have any experiences with this lately? I've got a ticket from MEL-SIN on JQi but I had to separately get another ticket on QF between SYD-MEL. Will QF at SYD check my bags through (even if they can't print the boarding pass)...

I have a sneaking suspicion that that's because they almost always need the extra 2 seats in J for the flights where they have been subbed off (28J vs 30J in the old configuration). Somebody I know was travelling on QF5 a couple of weeks back and at the time the new config aircraft was subbed...

I may be wrong but I don't believe any of the refurbed -200s have gone international yet. They will, however, be doing so sometime in September or October as there are quite a couple of refurbed A332s scheduled on the SIN and CGK services, which I am guessing is either due to a lack of A333s or...

Hi guys Does everyone know if the qstreaming to BYO devices has been turned on on the two ex-JQ A330-200 birds - EBC and EBD? I'm have the (unfortunate) displeasure of flying on one tomorrow evening and want to know if I should prepare my own entertainment ahead of time. The last time I flew...

In my humble opinion, I think a lot of the subs at the moment probably have to do with the different configurations - the non-reconfigured A333s have 30J 267Y, while the reconfigured A333s have 28J 269Y. If a flight is sold out (or oversold) in J, rather than having to downgrade 2x J pax...

QPE has returned to service some weeks back with a new coat of paint but still has the old cabin configuration as QPD is the one currently in the BNE hangar for its heavy check and cabin refit. I am guessing they can only do one A330-300 at a time, and also that they have to work around the...

My own personal feelings on this are that: - With the refurbishment of the A330s heading internationally and B744s and A380s with new cabins, they will finally be up there in terms of the hard product. The food is actually not that bad and entertainment variety actually pretty decent. -...

If I had to hazard a guess, it's probably because out of SYD the J sales are doing better which means using the reconfigured planes would result in 2 less J seats. One of the flights from SYD-SIN is in fact operated with an A332 with 6 more J seats (36J 199Y). Eventually they'd all be in the...

It is going back into service in the next hour or so on the QF597 BNE-PER. Apparently, VH-EBN will take its place in the hangar next (but this is not confirmed).

This is only a temporary situation for EBB-EBD as they had to come back to Qantas before they were ready to commence the A330 retrofit. J has iPads supplied at each seat but Y only has the main screens as no iPads are provided. When I flew on EBB last year, you couldn't connect to the Wifi...

The rotation is slightly different the next two days with the reconfigured aircraft appearing on -- QF52/51 SIN-BNE-SIN (22/23 March) QF29/30 MEL-HKG-MEL (24 March)

They look almost the same as the refreshed seats in the B767-300. However, there are no iPads supplied in Y even though qstreaming is installed (and no, BYO devices cannot connect to the wifi network).

At the moment, it looks like it will be a Business Suite. However, with QF domestic, swaps can happen anytime up until you get onto the aircraft.

While I can't comment on the soft product having never stepped foot on CI, the actual hard product on their newer A330s (B18356 - B18361) is actually exactly the same as what you'd find on the VA A330s and as such, is actually not too shabby. From what I gather, the SYD and BNE flights are...
