Some interesting comments above…you seem to think work travel is easy. Try spending over 100-150 days a year away. Sorry to take off course but it really offends me when people have a crack at work funded travellers. We sacrifice a lot and this forum is supposed to be a safe space for like...

This is always my favourite thread all year I look forward to. I’m back out on the road for the year so grabbing a bite in Brisbane thoroughly enjoying everyone’s posts and hoping to get around to posting mine tomorrow. Was a quieter year at 86 flights but appreciate everyone’s efforts to post...

No go on a Syd sin soon after new year (but that worked well as got great service in Y in a front row seat) but upgrade cleared on a sin Syd 24hrs out as a P1 requesting 5 days in advance.

Did QF operated by Finnair J recently and got the usual greetings but thought they had a nice touch at the end to ask if there was anything the Purser aka CSM wanted to feedback That would be a nice addition to QF to actually take down any service issues or recommendations.

I had my first Y international in a while this week and had great service on QF. Looked after well straight away with a little wine tasting from the very front of the plane done very discretely. Some of the best service I’ve had has been in Y which is exactly when you need it and appreciate it...

Secured a J Oz-HKG a few weeks out. Did require going to the bot but could see I and D so thought I had a reasonable chance

Who knows…I tried to upload the accompanying pic but took too long from where I was having dinner in BNE yesterday Did BNE MEL this evening and posting from somewhere with better signal. Quite enjoyed the beef on today’s dinner service operated by QFlink - never had any issues on QFlink A220...

Some recent TT meals Got a menu on outbound. I don’t do TT often but haven’t noticed in the past and didn’t get one on the return. I was on the last flight back to SYD so got to see when EK bought out the food and drink for their departure at 9pm. Im a big EK fan and it was really high quality...

QF Y international I think is reasonable to expect a greeting. Back when I did fly Y it was fairly consistent and is really when you need it the most. Have had a few glasses of red from F when at the front of Y on an A380 to J red on 330s and PJs and cheese plates. No recent data points CX and...

Ploughmans plate on the golden triangles pre 5.30pm has subtly changed. Latest version attached

Chicken was so much better today than last week. They coated in something so had a little bit of crispness and felt much better quality. Definitely not Sichuan spicy level. No chilli this week but I added some Sriracha sauce and condiments.

Had my first 321 experience today. I was on a later flight which got shafted but managed to move ahead to an earlier which meant a very rushed departure from the office but managed to keep my signature seat. This meant I got to witness the crew trying to figure out where everything was guided by...

Dang wish I checked if there was one booked from international With a SYD public holiday I’m on the QF 787 SYD-MEL since I don’t have to take the usual 5pm

Had the chicken salad above on a domestic service post 5.30pm today. Was really tasty with the other option being a beef ragu for those that wanted a full dinner replacement. The wine was a 2020 Catkin McLaren Vale Shiraz which was great and a real elevation from the recent reds. Great drop...

I got one on a last minute personal BNE-SYD as a P1 a couple of weeks ago. This seemed at the discretion of the lounge team and much appreciated. Most of my flying is in the top cabin so nice to see we get looked after when having to book down the back.

You can make work trips fit in. I don’t have an immediate family myself so willing to travel anywhere anytime. I think there’s a huge trend where people don’t want to travel. Seems like that’s starting to trickle through to domestic loads too. A little off topic but I just love to travel for...

Team in syd and Mel were asking for my thoughts on the rebrand. Staff were saying they just look for the emerald logo in the app at the lounge but this will help a lot. Was in 1F on the 220 tonight and could see the CSM on his iPad but didn’t get a glimpse of how we appear in terms of colour codes.

Travel for work and I love it. Even though you don’t get to deeply explore somewhere you get great memories and get to find where you want to spend more time. That helps support the personal trips where I want to broaden my horizons and see what else is out there. Life is short and I want to...

You get used to it after a while…just like anything else in life

Perfect, thanks for the update. Seems like I’ve been relying on inaccurate info
