This is probably my favourite flight review I've seen from you, mainly because I like the Boeing 787, and that the route you travelled on, the food on the plane, the friendly staff, and the key features seen in the business class seat! You've covered this very well! I hope to see more!
Good to see you back Rory. Love how you cover everything from destinations, airports, checking in, food, service, etc. Very informative. Be looking forward to seeing more videos :)
The king has returned! And this was well worth the wait! This was actually much better than what I was expecting, the food looked good and for a domestic product it would be outstanding but I'm not so sure if I could say the same about international, but still a great meal. I did really like though the crew, they seemed so nice and friendly. I've always had that with QF cabin crews. Anyway great video Rory and can't wait for your future videos!
I was thinking today where's Rory lol! Great review. Always love the food reviews as well. Good luck on your travels this year. Off to South Africa next month. I will be doing my internal Rory Ding review when I fly!
The flight into sydney is one of the most amazing experiences ever, especially on a clear day. The scenery and expansiveness of the city envelop your senses and really get you excited.
Hi Rory, great video mate. I am due to fly from Darwin to Melbourne on QF10 on Wednesday and I had no idea that this was a international flight, i’m glad that I watch this video because otherwise I would’ve been completely caught offguard.
Welcome back! Missed you these last couple of months. I am planning on flying in from the States in October. I am getting older and economy feels like being in a cattle car. After watching this video, if I can find the money, it will be business class for sure. Thank you for another great revue and for taking the viewers along for the ride.
Thank you for showing me what it looks like in business class. I don’t think I would ever feel comfortable in paying the high cost and would only travel economy, unless I win the lotto of course. Really enjoyed watching.
Hi mate, I enjoyed your positive presentation of your Qantas flight after many months of negative review of our national carrier. I am about to fly from Melbourne to Darwin to catch a cruise around our northern shores, so as a recreational traveller, a positive review of things to come are always exciting. Your review helped; many thanks.
Hi Rory, I am so happy to get a notification from you and I certainly wasn't disappointed even though I am not a good flyer and avoid it whenever possible. I am also happy to join and become a member which means I am very happy to be an official "Ding-a-Ling". I don't need any perks and I am happy to support your channel and hopefully it might help you get on the IP to Perth. I encourage everyone to join and also be a "Ding-a-Ling".
@@RoryDing Well that means the GHAN and that is cheating lol!! The carriages are identical. Oh, wait, it could also be the Great Southern and that would be wonderful. Future comment coming soon!!
That goat curry looks amazing… heck, all the food in that Qantas Club does. And walking through a duty-free lounge without being able to buy anything would kill me… I need my cheap Johnnie Walker Black Label haha! All in all, another great video
Once again, a great review and great production. Your videos are calming and relaxing, a nice change to others that are rushed and loud. Congrats on the Business seat. Bid on a seat SYD to LAX a few years back. It’s a different world up the front. Keep up the great work. ❤️✈️💺🍜
It's been a while. Welcome back. Nice to see the fabulous food & the inflight services you enjoyed on this unique flight on Qantas. Never have a chance to fly on them yet. Hope to see Qantas' A380s on your videos.
Wow so refreshing, your video appears honest and real. I like that you were objective and you pointed out the good and the bad. I have done may long haul international flights with Qantas business and will do many more. I hope you get the chance soon. I just did BKK to Syd and loved the carrot & ginger soup, LOL.
Great detailed video of your flight Rory. Wish we had have flown that aircraft to Darwin when we flew last month out of Canberra instead of the Alliance Embraer we had which was much smaller and didn't have entertainment screens. Can't wait to be flying the Qantas B787 in a couple of weeks when we fly Business class to LA :-).
Nice to see you could get a seat because after six weeks of waiting hours for the phone to be answered on numerous calls to customer service and being told it would be fixed but wasn't and the promised callbacks not coming either we still do not have tickets or conformation for our flights to LAX in two weeks time using our Qantas pass. Here is a good one, the customer service operator in FIJI says her changes that will fix it will be sent to the ticketing office in NEW ZEALAND but it will take FIVE DAYS. QANTAS THE NATIONAL CARRIER? A TOTAL MYTH!!
Excellent video for us and excellent experience for you. Judging by all the comments it would be fair to say you have been missed and the next time you go AWOL you will need a letter from your viewers. Haha
Very nice review of Qantas and your experiences. It's up there with Wingin'IT, another TH-camr that does frequent travels, and reviews of flights and his travel experiences at all levels of flying - economy/coach, business, first.
Excellent video Rory. I’ve been looking forward to it since I saw your instagram story on the day that you travelled. I’ll miss the 787s when they stop flying here to Darwin. Most nights I hear QF1 & QF9 depart to LHR if they’re using Runway 29. I look forward to my turn on a 787 one day!
Thanks for the review Rory. I can't imagine flying 16 and a half hours in cattle class to Darwin from London non-stop. I think deep vein thrombosis would be a real risk for passengers. Business class only for me I'm afraid. Darwin to Sydney is a long flight within Australia like Brisbane to Perth. Glad you could lie flat.
Looks like you had a good flight with Qantas. That airline's biggest problem is inconsistency with service quality. I've had good flights, and woeful flights with our national airline. Been like that for the last 15 of the past 35 years I've flown with them. Over the last decade I've tried to avoid Qantas. The UAE carriers offer a far better service to Europe. Who's best for AUS-USA? Probably Air NZ if you're not in a rush.
I did QF 8 …. DFW - Sydney business class last month on 787. American allowed us access to the DFW Admiral’s lounge for our four hour wait for the 11:30 pm departure! QANTAS is THE BEST ON THE PLANET!!
Such a long time Rory. Where've you been? I'd be disappointed if in these past few months you've been to places other than Sydney and we've not seen it.
Now this is what you call a review! I love how thorough you are
Thank you 😊
Rory, that a fab review. So good to see you again. Cheers.
Thank you Deb ☺️

Yeah the best part has to be crew! I need to check out their long haul dinning menu one day!! I agree the lunch is still light!
You new subscriber love 💕 from India (Bangalore) 🙏

Excellent commentary and high definition videos on your TH-cam channel is a source of great information and enjoyment. Keep up your good work.
Thanks for the nice video
Just brilliant Rory. Love your reviews. Keep them coming!

International flights seem to be affordable at the moment, lax to Syd in business can be around $330 😊
@@RoryDing Whoa!!! Not thousands?! Where can I find that rate? Sign me up. Seriously, sign me up.

Thank you 😊
Welcome back Rory. Have missed your videos.
We missed you..and you missed ordering the pie in the lounge, OMG! Lucky for us, you made up for it with the yummy on-board meals.
Yeah sorry Alli, I didn’t want to eat too much before my flight 😬😬😀
That goat curry looks amazing… heck, all the food in that Qantas Club does.
And walking through a duty-free lounge without being able to buy anything would kill me… I need my cheap Johnnie Walker Black Label haha!
All in all, another great video
Thanks for the interesting review Rory - I really enjoyed it. The staff certainly seemed friendly and top notch - good on you Qantas!

Thank you for watching my videos 😊
Yay! Rory is back! I missed your videos :D
Another great report, Rory
Fantastic video rory, and a good way to experience business class, though I thought they would of got rid of the menu like Singapore Airlines

I’m glad they kept the menu!
Your back with your great videos !!

great flight i enjoyed travelling with you greetings from the netherlands

such an alien world :) keep up the good work
Good review Rory Ding
Great video. Well done.

I’d love to see what is available in the self serve snack station next time. 💗
Next time I will have a look 😀
I think Tourism Australia will finally have to hire you as tourism travel ambassador
Thank you 😊
I did QF 8 …. DFW - Sydney business class last month on 787. American allowed us access to the DFW Admiral’s lounge for our four hour wait for the 11:30 pm departure! QANTAS is THE BEST ON THE PLANET!!
I’m flying virgin Boeing 737 tomorrow from Tullamarine to Coolangatta!!
Nice
Enjoy your flight 😊
Loved it Rory! But did miss a meat pie without sauce 😉
Oh! Haha I didn’t have meat pie at the lounge, I wanted to save space for the lunch on the plane 😬😁
Great review.
Rory, missing your train videos.
Great work!!! Well done. :)
Thank you 😊
Great info about the odd vs even seats 👍 Could you bend in the edges of the head rest?
Yes you could 😊
Such a long time Rory. Where've you been? I'd be disappointed if in these past few months you've been to places other than Sydney and we've not seen it.
I have been too a few places but nothing interesting 😁
I love it
Hey rory when will you be making another video
Arnotts cracker in business class..? Great episode BTW…
awesome as bud
That flight comes from London
