Qantas international Economy Class meals

[JimmyJ]

QF157 Mel-Akl

Cajun Chicken with pumpkin couscous salad. The salad was tasty and actually very good. Cheese and crackers, Lindt ball were as expected. The only let down was the wine which was pretty average and not worth a second drink.

The real question is why haven’t we seen bread and ice cream return to trans Tasman flights?

Service in the Melbourne International Business Lounge was also pretty good. Staff came through room with plate of the day beef pastries with Greek salad and trays of a Campari spritz coughtail. The food at the buffet table could still be improved however.

Lots of examples of New Zealand and Asian flights here, but has anyone got knowledge of what is served on Flights to Rome from Perth?

QF146 AKL-SYD



Beef Pasta. It is what it is.

No photos but flew back on QF102 NAN-SYD which I assume was Nadi catered.

Economy choices of
* Pasta Bolognese - turned out to be penne with a healthy amount of mince meat
* Chicken with mash and vegetables - quite decent serving.
Also usual biscuits and cheese. Wooden cutlery.
2 red and 2 white choices on the wine front - had the Watkins Shiraz pictured above.

Small size Kit Kats served later.

Had flown on an FJ A350 on the way there and the QF catering was definitely better though more room in the larger aircraft.

Was also impressed with the Fiji Lounge in Nadi. Good little kids section which reflects usage. Serviced bar and a good food selection with a mix of sandwiches, curries and salads.

QF71 Per to Sin. The economy meals are about the same as ScootPlus ones. You do get an ice-cream however.

Described as Beef Bacon Burgundy. Meat was tender and the mash had no lumps. Tasted fine for what it was.



Chicken Kung Pao.My wife said it was nice.

Well it is QF describing it and after the way they describe the wilted leaves you get in J what would you expect?

I think it’s Kung Pao ‘inspired’? lol. I had this dish on QFd. It was certainly tasty, but not authentic!

Am glad you liked it. I on the other hand have now decided to do all possible to not fly QF . Just flew EK to DXB AND then later to LHR. Apathy describes QF food and service. EK was exiting on 'Y'. Even with profiteroles in caramel sauce infused with cream. took so long to eat and enjoyed all to the last peppermint chocolate. Now a dedicated EK fan. Sorry QF , you lost it a long time ago.
