Qantas First class SYD-LAX

[RichardMEL]

Maybe they never offer it because they know you wouldn't want it. Evidence of how much research they do and how well they know their customers

Funny, but if I've never had it iffered, then how would they know? Further, I could change my mind...

If it's part of the service standard then it should be offered uniformly imo.

Now, had I requested - no doubt something could have been organised. However, this is not noted anywhere, and some pax are offered proactively (eg @muppet above).

Again, this is not a personal gripe or DYKWIA, but more my usual bugbear with QF about being Consistently Inconsistent(tm).

"research" in what way?

Desktop research like any business would with high value customers.

Good 'ol QF Inconsistency.

Consistently inconsistent is QF's brand as opposed to SQ, TG, EK, EK or other carriers with exemplary F products.

To be fair, SQ has zero ground services so QF is in the lead.

Hi all,

I'm shortly about to fly QF First from SYD-LAX, and have a few questions:
1/ It's a classic reward, so will I still get a First host calling me the day before to book in a spa treatment?
2/ I have a connection from MEL-SYD (with ample layover). Will there be an offer for a First host to meet me in Syd for escorting through immigration / security (as happened in LAX when I flew F from there last year)
3/ is there anything good on the drinks menu "behind the bar", only for F passengers that you'd recommend?
4/ Has anyone flown QF12 in F recently and has a copy of the onboard menu?

Any other tips? I've been WP for many years, so I'm very familiar with the F lounge, but never flown out of SYD in F before.

Thanks!

1. It used to be a call before Covid, now it's an email.
2. No, it's up to you to get the dom->int transfer bus and walk to the F lounge yourself. I have done this several times in the last year as a P1 F pax.
3. I don't think so (in SYD), but there is a roped off F/P1/CL section with a couple of dishes only for that area (minute steak and one other ..?)
4. Try this thread, looks like the most recent QF12 menu is from Feb:

I’ll try (but probably fail) to be brief and focus on the menu. But my experience: - Started well with escort by the lovely Ting Ting from the F lounge to (and through a very crowded) gate, then straight onboard. - After seating in 1K waited 15 minutes before FA Ebony came round. Champagne nice...

I did QF11 in first on 18/6. Very surprised how well everything went. Got an email from first host day before, spa treatment was great. Qf11 departed on time. Crew was excellent, food solid, drink list great as well. No complaints, pleasantly surprised as I flew QF12 in February and it was subpar at best.
