• Qantas A330s get Economy Plus seating

    Jul 03, 2026, 03:51 PM

    Again, well done QF.  Lets all look forward to 'economy minus' also being implemented into this new arrangement and kept quiet from the passengers. As we all know seat pitch measurements are a sham when knee space should be the measurement and indicator of actual knee room between seats.Once...

  • Great idea but as the story mentioned - no FF or lounges. To me not a big issue but to many they enjoy their perks, even when at a reduced price. The other issue was the age of the aircraft - 737-200's, passengers also like newer shiny jets..I personally would have loved using the airline, but I ...

  • How complicated a system it is. How about we just go back to the good old days when QF FF was introduced and passengers earn straight forward points per km flown and enjoy the ride. This system of fare types, status levels, distance flown or the new system of revenue earned to calculate points an...

  • QF has been the master of future marketing promises for years and the deliverer of none. In the 70's QF was King and today now a lonely court jester. The aviation world has moved on and Qantas has not kept up, with passengers now choosing with their hearts and budgets given the choices available....

  • Qantas A350 economy legroom

    Seriously, on an ultra long haul flight which QF is going to charge a premium for over 1 stop options. QF is defiantly having a laugh while showing total disrespect to its loyal customers and new. If QF was serious, it would have the Y cabin in a 2x4x2 configuration with at min 36 pitch and attra...

    Totally agree and have experienced the same. It is simply a combination of the above comments, with some passengers feeling they are entitled to bring on bigger and more hand luggage than allowable (presumably through non diligence of airline staff at boarding gates) than the other mere mortals t...

  • Seems to me, quite an embarrassment in modern aviation. AKL airport staff will soon be hand pumping fuel from imported 44 gallon barrels to get the aircraft in the air. What a joke!.

    I had a similar experience, but different. I had a credit with Virgin Australia a few years ago due to a flight cancellation and this credit was accessed and used by a third party without my knowing. This mystery passenger was based overseas. The credit was refunded to me after a l...
