    Airline review: Air Vanuatu economy class, Vanuatu to BNE as read in 'Traveller' SMH

    Maybe this is in the wrong place - Mods? Could be a different place to go for some - Luganville Espiritu Santo to Brisbane direct. Seems that scheduling is an enforced 1 week stay. Credits to QF. THE PLANE B737-800 "Air Vanuatu offers direct flights from Brisbane to the Vanuatu island of...

    Lufthansa Economy Classic fare not eligible for KF earn?

    Hi all, this isn't a huge deal as only a few hundred points are at stake, but I was very surprised to find a recent Lufthansa flight (within Europe) was not eligible for KF mileage accrual. It was booked as "Economy Classic", which as you may know is the middle tier of the three Economy fare...

    Cancelling Qantas Economy Flex (as a return leg)

    Hi, I am looking at a one-way flight from Melbourne to Stockholm (my return flight will be more than 12 months away so unable to book this return flight). By searching for a one-way ticket, it is about $1600 for a Economy Saver. By searching as a return flight, the cheapest to Stockholm flight...

    "Best" Y Seat on A330-200 International?

    Sorry if this has been covered before, but my searching couldn't find it. I have a QF booking in discount Y, SIN-SYD...MEL-SIN, which when I booked it was operated by 333 aircraft. It has now been changed to a 332 both ways, so my bulkhead seat in row 24 has disappeared, leaving me in a regular...

    Thoughts ? VA in its desire to become a business airline forgot economy

    Well let me say at the start, the topic may spark some debate. I remember VA from the Virgin Blue days in early 2009. My first flight with VA was HBA - SYD, the in flight live TV was amazing. crew I dont remember but it was a better experience than flying with JQ. It had me hooked on, then I...

    Coast to Coast [Economy] Cost Cutting

    Flew SYD-PER return over the weekend in Y. It feels like VA is cost cutting with the meal service. The dinner meal service wasn't on a tray - the hot meal was wrapped in the white napkin and there was no dessert on either journey. There was a 2nd drink service 1 hour after the meal service...

    Small cars bigger than economy seats

    Saw a news article today about how small economy seats really are. That the back seats in small cars are bigger then the room in cattle class, and that they arent much better in business class. No wonder I feel cramped :D 15-hours in a Fiesta more comfortable than flying?

    Economy seat size

    What are everyones thoughts on economy seats.. I understand I will likely get the "Fly business if you don't like it". I am only 186cm but have very wide shoulders and every single time I end up in the aisle I get my shoulder smashed by the trolley. I also end up with half my shoulder in the...

    Emirates long-haul economy

    How bad is the 777? How does seat width and leg room compare to a QF A333? I know one can look at seat measurements but these don't really mean that much unless you have experienced the seat for yourself. I am guessing the A380 would be more desirable?

    Fed up with flying economy

    Finally made the plunge and signed up here after I realised I just (again) over paid for economy tickets from AUH to LJU. Pumped to see so much valuable information although it does seem a bit overwhelming just starting out on this quest for better flying experience.

    Economy class - Dublin to Sydney

    People here tend to write about their Business or First Class experiences, but not everyone can travel at the point end (or upstairs!). I just got back from a trip to Ireland which I had to stay in Economy the whole way - despite having the points and money to upgrade, I seemed to have bought a...
