Good J prices: EY MNL-Europe rtn

[clifford]

QR is good, they’ll price in AUD even for flights ex Asia.

But at what exchange rate?

Pretty close to spot rate. Quite incredible really. Combined with QF J CRs to/from Oz becomes incredible cheap. As per the gist of this thread.

Some QR flights 'ex Asia' are its B777s with 2-2-2, but lacking direct aisle access from window seats that WY has on its B789s.

Multiple QR trips ex CGK and not had the 2x2x2 at all. Mostly A359 - so yeah, no QSuites either.

Travelling with someone, I wouldn’t get too upset with the old config. Actually plenty of space.

Fair enough, but I rarely travel with anyone.

Not neccesarily because I couldn't, but my spouse and I have carer duties, so someone really needs to stay home pretty much all the time.

But then she goes of with her friends and I'm left to man the barricades.

Works well for us at the moment, but if/when circumstances change we'll be off travelling together, but probably not on one of those old, coughpy QR 777's (unless the price is very right).

The old aisle seat in the middle pair is still the poor persons direct aisle access seat (with no one stepping over you). Unlike the nasty EK 2x3x2.
