QFF Platinum requesting release of extra Classic Reward seats?

Fair enough. I think that only strengthens my argument that the crew won’t be particularly happy. There’s a huge difference between a bunk bed nestled away from passengers versions lying flat on a poor man’s business class seat.

Absolute bunkum. I have a few JetConnect crew friends and they actually lovingly refer to the crew rest as "the pillow fort". I have very rarely come across badly tempered Kiwi crew - generally they are fantastic, and this applies to TT as well as long-haul like QF69/70 and QF15/16.

100% agree. The JetConnect crew on QF69/70 are downright amazing!

Fair enough. The only reason I brought this up was that I recalled news stories back when this change was made in 2022 with reports that crew weren't happy with the situation. Here's one such report from ORAAT:

Oh My: Qantas A330 Crew Rest Controversy

Here's why Qantas flight attendants built a blanket fort in the cabin on a recent 14 hour flight between Brisbane and Los Angeles.
