I like the chromatic windows on the 787, on saying that, the only time the cabin crew should have control over the windows is on take off and landing. 

I just hope the Daily Per-Sin flight stays at the 12pm time slot, I will be changing to a 2 weeks on 2 weeks off roster soon and will be utilising that flight to get me to Thailand, coming off nightshift that lunch time flight is perfect.

get upgraded a lot at the gate when going to work, on the short flight from Perth to Newman, which in a way sucks because i usually feed at the Qantas lounge before flying out, food in economy is terrible these days. First world problems.

unless you earn 3600 status credits (2400 of those on a qantas flight) in a year, good luck getting platinum one ;)

Being Platinum sure helps with upgrades. Upgraded myself and girlfriend to Business class from Bangkok to Sydney for only 50,000 points. Pretty sure I was on a sale fare too, as I had to pay for flights from BKK to SYD, SYD to CNS then CNS to PER, so I was being cheap :)
