economy class

BA now has paid meal options for economy pax. If you choose this option, it will replace your free meal on board. Prices are really quite expensive... GBP15-18. Meals for other classes (including WTP) can be reserved on line... but do not feature any additional dishes. The menu is the same...

Just flew Economy with Emirates as a QF SG, and I'd like to get some comparison with experiences on QF, as so far when traveling internationally with QF I somehow always got an upgrade to J (well, all of the 3 times I flew with them, it's not like it's every week :) ). Only made SG for the first...

Ingredients 1x set of eye shades 1x set of ear plugs 1x Seat 88G 1x Thermarest 1x large amount of luck/karma Result 1x Lie flat bed. Surprisingly good food on board, although the welcome drink was served once and then never again, which was disappointing. However, I was right under the AC...

Lowly Y here, already planning next year's trip to Europe (May-June 2016). Is it known yet when the new Premium Economy class is to be introduced on MEL-SIN-FCO and LHR-SIN-MEL flights? Any ideas on the likely price point? Mid-way between Y and J? My linking flights will be BLQ-MRS, and MRS-LHR...

Hi everyone, A bit short notice I know but I am looking to fly home to Manchester (or London if that's a lot cheaper / easier) on roughly 23rd June (dates flexible as long as I am home before 29th June) returning via Singapore. I need to be in Singapore for the 18th July and can spend one /...

Jnr#2 wants to head back to AMS for approximately 6 months. I can get her a return flight using 140,000 QFF points plus ~ $480. Is it possible to change the return date once the outbound flight has been taken? Is there a change fee? Any advice would be appreciated.

Suddenly remembered this morning that I have economy flights booked to LA, and that I'm supposedly able to pre-order food now and get an extra dish that you can't get on board. But I've looked everywhere in the booking and on the Qantas website and although there are still articles up about it...

more pics on my blog I've never intended to fly with Emirates until I needed to head over to Singapore to which Emirates had the perfect timing as well as fit perfectly into my budget which saw me book the flight ten hours before my flight. I'm not usually one to leave flight booking up to a...

Hi all, I've uploaded another Flight Report. The wonders of having so much free time (graduated uni)! In June this year, myself and my father travelled to Bangkok on QF23 (I'd done the same flight the previous year and Dad had done the same many years ago in a B747) and on to Tel Aviv (see my...

Hi Have booked economy on SQ A380. I originally selected seats 81K,H which is an exit row on upper level and we have paid extra for the privilege. Now I've got a bit of time I'm researching on seat guru and I'm starting to question my choice and thinking of changing to seats 71AC, also exit...

Qantas has announced it's bringing a new standard to International Economy with the introduction of ‘New Economy’. New Economy is a trayless service with the removal of the tray allowing for up to 50% larger meals. Select on Q – Eat is also being introduced to Economy meaning three main meal...

I searched through 25 pages of threads but couldn't see anything posted. Had a ROK-BNE flight last night to get me to 400 SCs a few days before my anniversary. Pre-allocated 4D on E190 and when I went to check-in yesterday morning 2D was available so I allocated it. There was only 1A and 2A on...

This just in from ABT! "Qantas will move to serving boxed dinners in September as part of an overhaul of catering for domestic economy flights. The new menu, developed in conjunction with one of the airline’s suppliers of business class meals, will offer a choice between a hot meal and a...

Doing the normal "I wonder whether my airfare purchase got the bottom price for my dates" search and then expanding it to cover a month afterwards revealed that Q is offering very cheap flights. Most are Q to HK then BA to LHR. The few I looked at were A380 for both Q and BA. So cheap that it...

It doesn't sound that great, especially when compared with Emirates... Flight test: Etihad Coral economy class

have been a lucky person in recent years and have been able to achieve J travel for all long haul flights. (BTW my personal definition of ¨long-haul¨ is currently anything over 2 hrs.) And part of the reason for my ability to travel well is due to knowledge gained here in this fórum- my personal...
