  • Human guinea pigs prepare for 20-hour marathon flights

    Oct 17, 2019, 08:26 AM

    Having done a lot of long haul, I find the A350 far superior to the 787, which is way noisier and cramped, neither come up to the comfort of the 380. 20 hours in nine abreast comedy class with a seat pitch of 31, would require some special drugs.

  • Virgin Australia readies new-look lounge design

    The VA lounge in Sydney can certainly do with some help. Boring and over crowded even on last Sunday afternoon. The food can certainly do with a revamp.

  • Review: Air India Boeing 787 business class

    Am about to travel with AI from FCO/SYD/FCO, very reasonable fare as the seat is more important than the meal was a good choice I expect. My usual carrier on this route has been TG which has become very Plastic as has CI. Looking forward to experiencing AI for the first time in years.

    Q suite like Qatar, lounge area with sitting area along with stand up area. Larger bathrooms, Dine on Demand. Doors on both F/C and J/C.

  • Best Star Alliance lounge in Melbourne (afternoon), Bangkok (evening), Milan ...

    Anything but the TG lounges, which are disgusting.

    I flew them last year from IST/SFO one of several trips I've taken on TK both in B/C and E/Y. I've never been disappointed with their service nor food. They have been threatening to start flying to Australia, wish they would I'm a great fan TK.

    I’d take the pocket rocket any day over the boring 737.

  • Best airline, hub for Melbourne to Rome?

    May 09, 2018, 09:32 PM

    The best choice for me at the moment (do this trip from SYD x4) has been either TG or CI. Quick connections and I'm at FCO 22 hours later.

  • Airbus A350 vs Boeing 787 Dreamliner

    Feb 21, 2018, 08:09 PM

    I've flown both several times, the A350 wins hands down. Quiter more spacious feeling better windows plus better air. Hate the 787, has Cramped feeling really inconvenient window arrangement.
