• @david - and thanks from me, as well. It answers the question I asked 22nd Feb. Any insight into why Qantas has chosen not to take advantage of this option? My guess would be it is only because it may have had an impact on either the aisle width, or the ability to make all three of the right...

  • Something that would be a bit on the 'innovative' side - and frankly, on the 'fair' side as well - would be to allow Y travellers to upgrade from international Red e-deals to international Premium Y (where available) and J Class.Yes, this would not be popular with tiered / rusted on QF FF'ers how...

  • David, an excellent review of the new A220-300. However, there is one point missing from the review. Can you confirm whether Qantas [has / has not] opted for the slightly wider seat width in the Y class 'E' seats ? This feature (if implemented) allows the middle-seat passengers an extra inch...

  • Finally, about time !Yes, we all know Qantas wants passengers to have a superior WiFi experience. Yes, we know the technical issues surrounding KA-2 band lack of satellites in the Southern Hemisphere etc. But seriously, lack of WiFi on international flights has become a complete competitive disad...

  • Have to concur with StuParr (above). Polaris information is spot on - but 45 mins to clear Customs and Immigration in SFO? You may need that lounge access more than you think, as you await to join a later flight. It seems to me that your planned connection is less than the required MCT (minimum c...
