Rex outlines business class dining for Sydney-Melbourne
Feb 27, 2021, 06:31 AMHopefully the will be offering a meal choice. Salmon and artesian cheeses are not to everyone’s taste. They are quite strong flavours and don’t have universal appeal. Also Rex needn’t worry about matching Qantas. More likely Qantas’ catering downgrades will sink belo...

Virgin Australia begins re-opening airport lounges
Nov 18, 2020, 09:22 PMIt is telling that Virgin are thinking of keeping the Canberra lounge closed. That would suggest they are not chasing government business so one must wonder what the business class offering is going to look like.

Qantas to close service desks at airports, lounges
Nov 06, 2020, 03:15 PMExtremely short sighted move. They might feel at the moment like they are the only option and can do what they like but it is a very poor call. When things go wrong we all would like a human to deal with.

Business class sleeping for a 2 year old?
Oct 30, 2019, 05:21 PMAs suggested use the seatbelt and some pillows to reduce the risk. Also for the enlightenment of some.

Qantas often blocked empty seats for me for international flights but sometim...
Oct 06, 2019, 06:02 AMGetting the spare seat has more to do with the fact the forward seats can only be preselected for p1 p and gold and only released more generally much closer to departure.
