Bannockburn becoming the new Humpy Doo based on the number of times it's written on that menu! In all seriousness though, I reckon that's one of the better looking menus and always like the more regional style / inspired dishes on the way to places like India over the usual garb served on the...

It's generally still been there. In my view, the wine they're putting in it doesn't justify decanting. Refer to F-Lounge thread for some examples of ~$20 bottles of wine in the decanter

That amount of travel honestly astounds me - 15,000 SC's in one year! The fact that a lot of that from your comments is / was done in Y and PE is even more impressive (and at the same time I pity you in a way). I love to travel, but certainly not that much.

There are a couple of old threads on this particular topic but are closed. Some interesting reading. What do you frequent flyers do for work? There was also a thread specifically for P1's: Platinum One people - what’s your job/business? Here is what I wrote there at the end of 2022: "Given...

The AU > North America menu was identical to my SYD>LHR menu from early November (well the SYD>SIN leg). We had the Duval Leroy Femme (I wasn't a huge fan) and do have to laugh and their reference to Krug and Dom. Would concur that all in all pretty uninspiring.

I could see them going down more of a revenue based status earning approach similar to some of the US airlines

No, no invite here. Where is it?

It was a joke said tongue in cheek :rolleyes:

Yes, just like the last CEO thought that the 'simpler and fairer' program changes were also going to be well received with all the 'enhancements' they made to the program...

Not really. You can pick up a bottle of grange for about the same price as a (non-sale) SYD>MEL J fare which would only net you 40 SCs or ~1% of P1. I'd much rather have a whole bottle of grange than a dom QF J flight with a crowded lounge, sub-standard food and wine offering and a potential...

I've had a mixed experience. P1 no. F passenger, yes. No grange though...

Wow!! Looks like it was being served in the F / P1 / CL section of the lounge? Any idea how many bottles?

I had no notifications from Auspost, but like others it was delivered yesterday and I collected it when I got home last night. Regarding Vanessa's letter, when can something really be called a 'tradition' as she alludes the gin is becoming? I would have thought we would have needed two years...

Bugger. I'd prefer the Negroni (or the bubbles of the past) over the gin (yes, I'm aware that gin is a critical ingredient in Negroni's) but I have plenty of gin already at home.

I really hope we get that here in Aus as I do love a Negroni!

I reckon that's better than the P1 comp from the most recent newsletter which is return trip to Seoul and 5 nights

Yes, but it's not consistently applied from my own experience and I wouldn't say that the offering is better even if you get into that area. In my scenario of a lounge within a lounge there should be more premium offerings of food and booze etc. (and don't mention that rubbish menu that they...

Perfect solution IMO would be a three lounge strategy: 1. True F-lounge for F/CL/P1 2. J Lounge (akin to today's F-lounge) for paid J/WP 3. QF lounge (akin to today's J-lounge) for upgraded J, SG, QP and lounge invites The above is really quite similar to the domestic set up with CL/J/QP...

Yes, it's different to any I have seen on aircraft recently. It's similar to an edition that they circulated at some point during COVID when they were sending the magazines to P1's. It has some features on certain destinations and restaurants as well as the usual ads for watches / jewellery /...

Not sure if P1 specific or not, however 'As a valued frequent flyer' I have just received a 'special collectors edition' Qantas magazine (which tbh looks the same as the other QF magazines) from Ms Wirth as she 'knows how often I travel' (so obviously need another QF magazine to read) to...
