Other lounges I have visited in the last 12 months are losing their lustre as. Especially visitors dressed up as backpackers. Food quality is declining as well.

No way I will fly Business class on a B738, especially on QF. SQ will always win out on Service Quality.

Cruising the high seas, seems to be a better option for those seeking travel comforts. It seems that most Airlines are stripping FF to the bones.

What a shame, they are terminating the Darwin Stopover. Who else will operate the DWN/MNL sector??

My last purchase was a Qantas wrist watch on a Flt from Manila back in 1994. Still have it, still works with only one battery change.
