• It feels very budget carrier to not have seatback screens.  I really appreciate airlines like Air Canada which are so consistent with their product offering fleet-wide.  For a full service airline like Qantas to not offer seatback screens it's a penny pinching exercise which I find disa...

  • I feel badly for the staff and pilots who are likely to lose their jobs but in reading this I cannot help but wonder, are Qantas going to go after some of these lightly used GEnx powered 787s?  I believe 3 had been delivered with a further 7 ordered.  Not sure how tight fleet planning i...

  • I'm not sure when they ended first to Sydney but I wouldn't be surprised if it was around the same time Qantas refitted the 747s without a first class cabin.  I'm surprised they cannot make a first offering work to Sydney and Melbourne given how big the legal and financial service industries...

  • If Hudson could implement fast and free wifi would be great for passengers and would have good PR impact, not sure if their solution would be Starlink or an existing satellite: Viasat 3 APAC doesn't appear to have a launch date, a new launch provider has not been found yet.  If they can find...

    Hello,I cannot seem to find any info online (other than google saying the lounge is open 24 hrs). I am on QF43 to Bali tomorrow and was wondering if the lounge will be open in the early afternoon or is it only open for the 6AM and late night departures to DXB? If anyone has any info I would rea...

  • Great idea, thanks. The EK site doesn't seem to list the operating hours of the SYD lounge but google says it's 24 hrs which cannot be given the curfew...

  • Hello, after a number of years I didn't re-qualify for platinum status (quelle horreur I know..) and was wondering how the Sydney business refit was coming along? The images of their Perth and Brisbane lounges look quite impressive in comparison to the fairly dated state of the Sydney lounge but...
