Best domestic business class compared: Qantas vs Virgin vs Rex
Mar 20, 2024, 04:16 PMOnboard service can vary widely and wildly from one flight to the next, so there's simply no way to accurately say service is X, Y or Z based on just one or two flights. Meals, WiFi etc are more consistent between flights so can be more of a reliable marker. Some people will say Qantas has ...

Mar 13, 2024, 03:02 PMCathay hasn't revealed the seat's provenance but all signs point to this being a solidly styled & customised version of Collins Elements, which is its latest version of the doored Collins Super Diamond platform launched as BA's Club Suites (perhaps confusingly, that seat was followed by the C...

What’s it’s like to fly in the Qantas A220
Feb 25, 2024, 09:14 PMNo special insight, airlines can choose to have all three seats on the right-hand side the same width for either/both the reasons you mentioned. Also it might be the case that while the Safran seats designed and offered on the A220 have this wider-middle-seat config, that might not have been an o...

What’s it’s like to fly in the Qantas A220
Feb 25, 2024, 04:54 PMHi Tour_contact: yes, there's an option for airlines to specify the middle seat as being a bit wider (19" instead of 18"), but Qantas is among the airlines which chose not to do this, in order to give that extra inch to the aisle.

EK First access a Qantas Lounge in Hong Kong?
Mar 17, 2023, 09:00 AMIt's as Philby says above: the Qantas HKG lounge remains closed, but will reopen sometime in April (no, we don't know when that'll be). One expects the pre-pandemic rules would still apply under the QF/EK alliance, but if you reach HKG before the Qantas lounge opens, you'll probably be bound for ...

Qantas Double Status Credits - What are the chances now?
Mar 03, 2023, 01:51 PMI'd not be surprised to see a DSC offer later this year as the final wave of status extensions peters out. As Philby rightly says, they're a sales tool and a powerful one at that, and will definitely have strong appeal to QFF members facing a post-Covid 'status drop'.
