Ranked & rated: Qantas’ best and worst business class seats
Dec 01, 2023, 08:39 PMThe A330-200s are horrendous when flying mid-haul overseas. Their reliability is poor with endless engineering requirements causing significant and frequent delays. And with just one toilet in some configurations to service 28 Business customers, it’s hardly a premium cabin. On a rece...

Qantas to replace A330s with Airbus A350s, Boeing 787s
Aug 24, 2023, 06:39 PMI'm confused... this article says replacement is a 1-1 swap with the old A330s (there are 28 of them) yet this order is for only 24 new aircraft. Did I miss something?

10 years on, has the Qantas-Emirates partnership delivered?
Feb 03, 2023, 02:02 PMDefinitely agree with your comment about QF F&B. Having been privileged to fly EK and QF in F and J, QF lags so far behind imo. EK dining is something to look forward to.

Qantas launches Points Club, rewarding spending rather than flying
Mar 20, 2020, 01:02 PMOriginally Posted by dm12 Disagree. Perfect time to launch a program at keeping spending going. They recognise its not all about themselves (unlike some FF'ers) and doing what they can to keep the economy ticking along. It's a fair point about promoting spending dm12, but when there's significan...

Qantas launches Points Club, rewarding spending rather than flying
Mar 18, 2020, 06:30 PMAt an unprecedented time due to Covid-19, Qantas chooses to launch a brand new loyalty program aimed at big spending??? Did I read that right today? Yet at the same time, thousands of its members are either stuck overseas, or unable to travel for work (their livelihood). Reservations phone lin...
