Had a bit of a longer look at the images produced with the
QF Sunrise Cabins blurb.
On the outside of the First Suites are these symbols - anyone suggest what they might represent (I appreciate its 'prototype', but someone thought these should be appropriate).
The last one: ?Lock? I'm not aware of any pax suite doors that lock. Maybe its 'Do not disturb' ?
Again, acknowledging that we've only seen 'prototypes', it looks like they are going for the high ceiling, no overhead bins layout for the central sections of the business cabin. QR has this in their B777s (IIRC) and its not a positive. The side bins are very large and seem to hold everyone's stuff, but it means 'other people' leaning over your side suite to get to their bin but more importantly for me, it means no personal air vents in the middle section. I find these enclosed suites can get warm to uncomfortably warm with the doors closed, so I always want an air vent, and always go the side (and rear facing, so the seat is by the window). EYs Apartments didn't have an air vent and I roasted, there. Small point - they've got the bins' doors with their hinge at the top - again, not optimal as things can drop out, and the capacity is less. Again, its prototype but I'd say they've put a bit of work into these.
Actually in First, it looks like no overhead bins. I wonder if that's what is actually contemplated, due to the abundant in-suite space? Again, no personal vent is a big negative for me, esp for the very long Sunrise flights (but offered a freebie, I'd give it a go
)
