Interesting in the press release it notes "... additional capacity has been accommodated by the reduction in the Business cabin and some reshuffling of the cabin interiors such as the galleys, partitions/walls and closets"
No mention of the number of toilets being reduced or most of the self service bars being removed.
is OQD back doing flights?
It seems a lot of speculation, but wouldn't the feedback be better until after people have been on the actual config and have experienced it?
The same went for the refurbed 747's. Seemed that the feedback was fairly negative before hand, yet those who have been on the refurbs have actually found some positives to it...

Wow, it seems the new configuration is not popular. I must admit I will wait until I have tried it to see whether I have any comments.
Reading this thread however brings me back to my ever consuming thought...... If Qantas just loved their passengers they wouldn't get all this continual negative.
EH
Yes it is. Seems first flight back was QF 11 on the 20th. It was interesting watching the boarding from 49A. The 3 people in row 48 were descretly taken to the business lounge during boarding. I think if you had these seats you would want to board early to get overhead locker space, but otherwise I think it was handled well.is OQD back doing flights?

What happens if F/J pax are in the lounge already due to pre-boarding? Surely the FA can't ask them to leave?

Looking at the seat map it seems the Upstairs Economy folks in Rows 35 & 36 especially, will see little outside the plane :shock:
Might feel like they are peering outside of a cave :shock:

35D seems to have a very good view of the toilet. Yet it is also an exit row seat so I take it Qantas will be charging more for it. Hard to tell from the seat plan but 36D seems to have a wall next to, looks like it might be hard to get into.
But on the plus side for economy row 32 it is looking pretty good. It is an upstairs bulkhead row and appears to have plenty of leg room. Also there are no bassinet positions in this row. As it is just a bulkhead row (and not an exit row) it should be available for no extra charge.

I just had a look on E/F and as a WP I can select any seat on the UD in Y except row 35 which is blocked. Row 36 is already allocated. On lower deck, 48 is blocked also.
Using the other half's SG number on E/F, everything is blocked on UD except row 34. So looks as if UD is domain of the WPs.
