Beer in a bottle - not in BNE (optional in MEL)?

[samh004]

I honestly think this varies by staff member in each lounge. I've had bottles in BNE before, and also glasses. Sometimes I'm even given a choice.

SYD T3
QC - beer in bottle - ok
J Lounge, beer in bottle - not ok.

Maybe those in the QC are more trustworthy?

I still don't understand why there is no consistency throughout the lounges. Surely it would be more economical to serve in bottles if people prefer that.

Virgin Lounge serve all their beers in stubbies, glasses
available on request. Prefer drinking from the stubbie also.

Much wider range of beers too.

Just grabbed a Heineken at Brisbane
Qantas Pub, surprise got the option,
stubbie or glass. About time.



Also have a hot pasta dish available.

I forgot to post but last Friday (10/02/2012) in the BNE business lounge I was asked if I wanted to have my Pure Blonde in a glass or the bottle.

Yes, can confirm their policy has changed and they now serve beer in a bottle! Maybe they read AFF???

Re: Bottle or Glass in the MEL J lounge

Mildly interesting event in the MEL J lounge today - I was asked if I wanted a bottle or glass for my beer - I opted for bottle as it is one less item to wash...

I haven't been offered a bottle in the QP/J lounge in a long time - is this a change in policy?

As a follow up - I haven't been offered a bottle since this...

I noticed recently but didn't think that anyone else would have picked up on it.

*update*
In the SYD J Lounge atm.
There was a small que for drinks, some help arrived.
Pax ordered a VB, from the bottle, no glass please.
Staff member says, 'sorry, we have to pour it into a glass'
Senior staff member steps in, 'no, there has been a rule change. From the bottle is now ok.'

Yes, QF are reading these forums...

I thought bottle was glass as well!

This has been in affect in SYD Business Lounge since the beginning of May, perhaps earlier.
