Qatar Airways: free flights for Aussie healthcare workers
May 13, 2020, 11:58 AMA nice gesture, perhaps, but in the Australian context at least, I would suggest that of all healthcare workers, our CLEANERS should be the recipients of this largesse, given (a) their critical role on the frontline of keeping us all safe (moreso than mine as a medical specialist), (b) the risk t...

How competition gave us the world's best business class

Qantas A330 ex BNE VS JAL 787-9 ex SYD
Jan 27, 2020, 09:20 AMThe JAL Dreamliner experience in business class (and down the back, for that matter) is excellent. The seat is very comfortable and private, but doesn't have a huge deal of storage for personal items, if that's important to you. The service and catering on JAL is superb.
