economy class

I was searching SYD-HKG flights next year and I noticed from April the flights QF127/128 and QF 117/118 were both A330 flights. I rang the QF Call desk and they confirmed this was correct and not just a system glitch. Obviously this will mean the 747 is being removed on this route - yet it will...

Hi All. Apologies if this has been asked before, but I cant find much on this topic. So, I am flying out next Satuday on SQ214 and decided to try my luck on... mySQupgrade On checking, the following message pops up: "There are no seats available for upgrade at the moment. Availability is...

A short time ago I boarded a QF international flight and had a conversation with the flight attendant who was surprised to see a QF Platinum sitting at the back of the aircraft. I informed her that I arrived at Platinum by flying discount economy or economy for all of my status points. She said...

See latest CX Y offer CNS/HKG direct $750 each, so was going to book two for mid Oct., at the checkout it says select seats, all blocked out except for exit seats at $230 a pop, was annoyed at this come on so tried to call CX, well after 20mins waiting I gave up. After searching I then find out...

I used to see the fact that QF hides fare class on their website as something annoying, but today I realised just how stupid that decision is. So I tried to book a Flex Y ticket MEL-SYD-DFW-ATL, YYZ-ORD-LAX-SYD-MEL and I made sure to select only QF codeshare on the AA domestic segments. Using...

Hi, Have not flown Emirates for many years, or international Y for a few, but a quick trip to Paris at the end of May sees Mrs Aus ATC and me in Emirates Y. I made 2 separate bookings (saving a few $$) but not realising till afterwards that I missed getting us both free seat selection (me...

Hopefully a quick question a AFF member can help me with - i did a search and couldn’t find the answer. I have a super sale fare with QF that has paid seat selection (which i don't want to pay if i don't have to ;) especially since this can be changed by the airline). There are three of us in...

This is mostly a curiousity question, prompted by me being soon to fly to LAX and back with some fussy eaters (adults). If you don’t care for any of the mains in the Business Class Menu, can you ask for a meal from a lower cabin class? If yes, does anyone have any experience in doing so?

Hi AFF family I'm flying LHR to AUH this Friday with Etihad and I know they are overbooked in economy. Anyone had any experience in what Etihad will offer those willing to be bumped? Also I'm platinum with Virgin and I know there is J class availability, is there a chance they will upgrade me...

Does anyone know the reason Qantas decided to remove the curtains between Business and Economy on the 737 during the refit a few years ago? To me it loses a lot of the exclusivity of being in Business and having economy passengers walk through the cabin to get to the toilet can become...

Out of all the airlines that fly direct from SYD/LAX what airline has the best economy seat? Leg room is more important to me than recline and I really don't care about the food and/or entertainment. I would like direct flights as I need to go for only 4-5 days. I'm use to flying long haul...

I am flying JJ8162 Sao Paulo -Joburg Business class (classic award) then 10hour layover before flying QF64 Joburg - Syd Economy (classic award). Will I be able to access the Qantas lounge in Joburg? I can see rules that cover long haul followed by short haul flights. But not long haul /long...

MH have a flash sale offering 30% off. SYD -LHR from $1100. Kathmandu $583. I think that's a good fare for Oneworld. Book by 28th January. Deals

Good afternoon all. I am flying to Bangkok at the end of the week on Emirates in J using QF points. Coming home a few weeks later my friend in flying Y on the same Emirates flight. I would like to get him onto a lounge but I understand I cannot access QC seeing I am booking on an EK ticket...

Hi all, I was on a recent flight from London to Melbourne (QF 10, stopover in Dubai). I was in PE on the upper deck. I was walking around the cabin (Y and PE) and stopped to stretch in the big area back by the flight attendant area (in front of the stairs). I decided to use the loo while I...

Hi all, Is it possible on the Virgin website to book a return flight, Y on BNE-LAX with J on the return leg? It seems I can only select either Economy OR Premium/Business but not all for international flights (can do all fares on domestic selection). Help most appreciated.

Wanting a quick trip to LA and was considering economy over and having a comfort seat. One thing I didn't realise (I do think in hindsight obvious) I cant be upgraded as a comfort seat needs to be on the same booking as the person so the upgrade would need to be for both seats. Sooo didn't go...

Given that the 787 has made several flights now between OZ and US I thought it would be good to have a dedicated thread for review of flights across all the cabins. Please provide as much feedback as possible in each cabin but especially in Y+ with the concerns about getting in and out in terms...

Dear AFFers As 2017 draws to a close and after reading a number of reports on which airline has the best First/Business/Premium/Economy experience I have been inspired to start a series of polls for our own community. Given our shared love of travel, I'm sure that we are well positioned to give...
