And here's the AusBT review of J class - Qantas Boeing 787 business class (Los Angeles-Melbourne)
Of the notes, this would not be hugely due to the aircraft - being late in arriving, maybe the ground crew at MEL were having a time with less arrivals.3. It was much faster to board/collect my bags than with an A380, I've never really enjoyed competing with 400+ people at baggage claim.
Does priority baggage work any better with the 787? Or still the same issue with priority baggage not being treated with priority?
I think they are all changing to paper. Too many issues with the lav system with people flushing them down the toilets.Paper? Doesn't J have thin cloth hand towels?
The seat itself was fairly comfortable, although in terms of pitch and width I'd probably still slightly prefer an A380.
That is disappointing. People should use the bins for everything but toilet paper. If I get paper towel in the lavs rather than what I'm used to in long haul J I'll certainly leave QF some feedback expressing my displeasure with the change. Paper towel feels very cheap when the airfare costs thousands.I think they are all changing to paper. Too many issues with the lav system with people flushing them down the toilets.
Well I never thought I'd see the day where there was such passion over hand towels in the lav
btw part of the LAX-MEL delay may well have been caused by the (almost usual) delay to QF12 ex JFK - waiting for connecting pax.

With over 600+ 787 flying today (and even some within the QF group) and MEL-LAX being an existing route, it is hard to get too excited about about number 601+ entering service without looking foolish...
