Chance to dine at Rockpool Bar and Grill with Lesley Grant

[simongr]

Each one of mine was several paragraphs

Oh wow! It makes my ~200 words per question not seem too bad now haha!

Hmm - mine were one liners like last year.

Grateful? It seems to have had the effect of making them whine about the A330 product they now have

Am I missing something? Is there an A330 service for ADL? (other than the soon to be dear-departed-QF81)

No. The comment was in reference to axing A330 services from ADL and PER. The result seems to have been whining from some sections on the east coast about now having an inferior product to Asia. The same product that ADL and PER people have had for ages.

Sent my questions and good luck to all

 

[TonyHancock]

Can someone do me a favour and ask about PB please? I'm keen to hear whether QF thinks is it all working fine, or whether there are issues and they are being dealt with.

Unfortunately I'm overseas....and yes flying QF!! Someone has to keep the QFi going!!!!

I felt setting the scene for the question was better than asking without a backstory on why. So I guess the actual question was short.

I am sure I raised it last year - can't find the feed from the event...

Just different styles I guess.

Was surprised to find that I'd been an AFF member for more than a year. Time flies when you're having fun!

Thrown my name in the hat with some longish Qs. Getting to go would be awesome, but getting to meet some folks off here would be awesomer!

 

[davec]

Sadly will be O/S (via QFi of course) for a 3 day trip which will cover this date ..... Next time I guess!

 

[casanovawa]

I think PB has been done to death hasn't it??? Its not like QF could be aware that people up the front aren't happy about it... They would have done something by now wouldn't they if they cared or were concerned about it...

I do hope they weren't just fishing for compliments but for questions that spur improvements, not 'enhancements', constructive criticism if you will.

Oh well, guess we'll find out in a few days...

I think QF's most engaged and knowledgeable FFs are to be found here on AFF, so it makes sense that QF would be interested in the honest views of AFFers about QF, the FFP and how things could be bettered (rather than "enhanced", or "improved" a la the recent Asia "improvements") . It wouldn't make much sense to hold a function like this to talk to dedicated fans, or to dedicated haters, or even to those CLs, P1s and WPs who might fly a lot but who have no idea about how the FFP works. IMHO. QFMMV.

It was a very open discussion with lots of information provided - they certainly got a sense of how people were feeling - anytime access got a good airing and some frank opinionss on both sides. It was certainly not an opportunity to fish for compliments - some came and some certainly did not...

Another entry submitted. Good luck & good dining to all the lucky winners.

soooo.... anytime access got a good airing. but the policy didn't change. did anything actually change as a direct result of the last meeting?

I think there's a danger of getting carried away here.
Qantas are running a competition to meet Lesley Grant and have a slap up lunch at Rockpool with a convivial chat.
They did the same in Oct 2011: a slap up lunch at Rockpool and a convivial chat with Simon Hickey and Steph Tully
Did the world change then?
No
And I don't expect it to now

Good Luck to all who enter

If I was lucky enough I don't expect to have a great deal of impact on QFF but I'm thinking my world might change a little, in a nice way. .

Poeple do need to have reasonable expectations. On anytime access, QF got the message that some WPs were upset about it. But they already knew that was going to be the response before they changed the policy!

I think they are looking for suggestions and feedback. That doesn't mean they will reverse course on something simply because a few people say they're unhappy. But obviously they want to know what people think. Simple as that.

Domestic arrival access was provided however, so they gave a little I suppose...
