Good News! Pyjamas on (almost) all Qantas international flights in J!

[Berlin]

Just to have a dig at all those Qantas haters out there- it’s actually REALLY nice that Qantas provides PJs for Business class to begin with. And I always LOVED them with the roo on it!

 

[RichardMEL]

But the only time I wear PJs is in hospital.

When you're operating?

*hide*

I like the roo as well, but for comfort, I always take and wear my well worn Qatar Airways World Cup t-shirt top and matching bottom.

Does get me the occadional sideways look from crew when I'm standing around the galley

"The airline used to provide its iconic kangaroo-adorned Business Class PJs on QF72 from Singapore to Perth, but this is no longer the case." Why not? It's even an overnight flight.

Others like EK have nice pj's. QF seems so flimsy, threadbare in comparison.

OK, I'll put my pennies worth in. I see it as a waste of world resources to supply PJ's for 28+ pax on a day time flight. I just flew from Syd-Hong Kong. The flight departed at 10:45 morning and landed in HK at 16:30 the same day. Are pax really that needy that they need PJ's for a day time flight ? I expect to be shot down for my statement but it's how I feel.

Agreed but I think having the option is key. Not everyone is on the same schedule/time zone. ‘On request’ would meet everyone’s needs without waste.

Well, at least Qantas has them. No chance on the likes of Singapore Airlines and many others or those ridiculous cardigans to wear in an already overheated cabin on JAL. Then rather those QF PJs with the roo on it!

Though JAL's F sleepwear is pretty good. But it all comes down to personal likes. And a cardigan in Tokyo on a cold December's day gets used but QF PJs do not.

I like the idea of a day flight. Means my clothes are fresh on arrival.

 

[RichardMEL]

Tbh I try to take a pair with me if I remember - so not taking more.. if I wash at the other end so much the better(to use on return). Added bonus don't have to wait to get changed, and helpful on airlines with no pj's.

Also noting some airlines like UA only offer pjs on flights over 12h and only then usually on request.

EK has never had PJs in J until very recently. Introduced last month but only on flights 9 hours or longer duration.

I wanted to say, since when does EK… You’ve answered my question!

But change the concept from ‘PJs’ to ‘loungewear’. Save your clothes getting wrinkled. Save food spills. Generous size makes it easy to get comfortable compared to say jeans or chinos. Keeps your original clothes fresh for any engagements post arrival.

Not everyone wants them, but the choice should be there for the passenger. Pax can bring their own loungewear and contribute to sustainability, and indeed some do.

A note of caution - last time I used QF pyjamas they gave me a horrible rash

Don’t you have to return the cardigan?

 

[drron]

Don’t you have to return the cardigan?

Although it says so when I asked the FA took it and wrapped it up for me to take.

I’ve worn a lot of QF PJs over the years rash free. In fact, I’m wearing some now!

 

[PumaPilot]

On the thread of PJ's, I love the Qatar PJ's, best one yet, well made and comfortable

Umm, maybe it's because I go to bed quite late anyway, but I would consider QF72 a late night flight not an overnight flight, given it starts and ends in the same time zone, albeit arriving at the late hour of 12:30am.
