• This seems to imply that CX would bring the A330 back to Australia. That would surprise me for a number of reasons including capacity (inclusive freight) and need to have a more updated product to serve the Aus market generally. My hope is that the lie flat product will rather be retained on long...

  • I was there a couple of weeks ago and it certainly is an oddity that there’s no option. CX is currently giving its FFs a generous AM award as compensation for there being no lounge. 

  • I’ve found it fairly reliable on HKG-Aus legs but highly variable elsewhere eg. non-existent to/from India.

  • This is good news! An overdue but nonetheless very welcome change!

  • In that case, QF should not receive anything near the support and protection it receives from the Australian taxpayer.

    Wondering if anyone has recent experience negotiating status match with QF? I'm DM with CX and obviously gutted about the situation there. I may have no alternative but to decamp to SQ in any event unless QF improves its connectivity into Asia ex-MEL but would be interested to hear from anyone wh...
