  • Qantas axes Melbourne-Perth 787 flights

    Yep bad fleet planning. Good time to let QR have an extra frequency out of Melbourne.

    Sad day QF have always had a MEL link with LHR, even in the 70s QF001 originated in Melbourne.  Dreadful to have to fly J class on a 737 to connect in PER and no PE available at all ex-MEL to LHR even via SIN. Forget SYD, dreadful transfer. This move just strengthens the ME and Asian carrier...

    Has anyone noticed that from the end of July 2024, Melbourne loses its direct LHR flight; QF009/010 flights, only conx  are over PER/SIN/SYD. Well, QF is known as, AIR SYDNEY, Glad we have Qatar SQ/CX and others who certainly enjoy a lot of loyalty.

  • Revealed: Qantas’ secret first class lounge menu

    I certainly won't make the cut unless I can get UG seat on QF001/19June, SYD/LHR with points, which is in not going to happen only 3F available at this stage! Crazy paid $25k for 2 seats last year. Flying to SCL in March and they want $12k each return J. Still good to see QF doing well.

    Great news, just did MEL/PER/MEL J class - main course, then pudding, chocolate bar, lindt Choclate and then an ice cream WOW! Would have liked a starter/salad and a piece of cheese, too much sweet stuff!

  • QF J service

    Oct 06, 2022, 04:33 PM

    My wife and I recently flew Mel/Fco/Mel, via Perth, domestic catering was poor and wine selection very average only one white was offered a Hunter Semillon. The transit in Perth was great. The QF International lounge at Perth airport was superb. Both of the long -haul flights were great, top-not...

    That's why I fly QF and will fly QF when international returns, no desire to transit in the ME.

  • Qantas flights to Johannesburg after Boeing 747s are retired

    Significant reduction in capacity 7x789 V 6 x 747. I fly the route on a fairly regular basis and the aircraft always appear to be full. A couple of options - 1] 4xA380 and 3x A330 via Per. 2] 7x789 and 3xA330 via Per. This would be subject to QF reaching and agreement with Perth airport.

    If they do get the okay for an A380 into HND where do they get the A380 from. It really needs to move to a AM departure and PM out of HND?
