  • The complete guide to Qantas Boeing 737 business class

    Aug 12, 2020, 01:30 PM

    Clearly difficult times to comment as neither Qantas nor I are going anywhere internationally at present. My experiences on the Qantas 737 in business were predominantly trans Tasman when I absolutely for schedule reasons had no choice.  The A330 or latterly pre Covid the 787 into Auckland o...

  • Is this the first step towards better inflight WiFi?

    Again "not everyone". I am quite content in a Wi-Fi free zone when flying.

  • Qantas upgrades business class breakfast

    May 20, 2019, 11:44 AM

    Returned on QF38 in Business on Sunday morning. The brioche mentioned in the article was tasteless and cold in the middle and the fruit salad far from fresh. As others have noted it is a sad and non-competitive offering on overnight Business Class flights from Asia.

  • AMEX overhauls credit card frequent flyer points

    Nov 15, 2018, 03:59 AM

    After 34 years as an Amex Member I really now wonder why continue? The same points conversion as my Mastercard and Visa.

    On a more positive note to my previous Finnair post. Qantas cancelled a reward flight on 24 April, received a full points refund on 27 April and taxes are back on the credit card today 05 May.

  • Status benefits applied immediately?

    My experience last year going from Gold to Platinum on a multi leg trip in Asia was immediate.

  • Qantas short of hot meal options on NZ routes

    Yes, I try to avoid the QF 737's trans Tasman J for a number of reasons and this is one of them. Not a problem I have come across on the QF A330's into AKL or EK to CHC.
