      @@pcavi food was okay. No complaints there. Mid flight menu was lacking. I saw the menu on your video and QF menu is much better. My return leg back home to Sydney was meant to be on a qf12 a380 business but I had to change my return date by one date…and that date happened to have only AA/UA so I just stuck with UA. Still happy tho, better than economy

    Qantas did a great job on the refurbish. I really like the look of the lounge and First Class. Always wanted to try Qantas. One of my bucket list items.

      Avoid it for now. It's gotten what we call a "Shonky" award, for products or business that are the worst of the worst. They are no longer the Spirit of Australia. Our current CEO is a horrible, woke, virtue signally man who rather pad his pockets than return to Qantas' greatness. Hopefully it comes back soon.

      @@Audios81 that sucks! I worked for Boeing in 2006-2009 on the 737 line. When a Qantas bird was on the line, they had their own employees standing by to ensure the work was done properly. They were some of the coolest guys ever. They were down to earth, and just the kind of guys you could talk to. Most other airline acceptance crews tend to be snobby and crabby.
      I am saddened to hear this. You know, eventually karma will catch up with a bad CEO. Wishing the best for them. It's still on my bucket list, and probably another 10 years away before I can make the hop across the pond. Hopefully by then things will be better.

      @@pcavi that's too bad. It looks great! But then again, here in the US, we got Spirit and some crappy other US Airlines that thinks a bag of pretzels and a bottle of water in first class was acceptable. I dream of flying on the Qantas A380. I flew out of LAX every single day, and would slobber on takeoff catching video of their 380 over near the maintenance hangar.

    Unfortunately, you won't get the lounge or equivalent in other aircraft.
    The A380 has a section that Airlines struggle to know what to do with. Qantas and Etihad have the lounge. Etihad also tried the residence. Emirates went for the shower.

    • @pcavi
      @pcavi  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Seat itself is not amazing but the mattress cover goes long way to make it a comfortable seat. Seat itself is a bit limited in terms of width and footwell. Yes I think Qantas is still saving money where it can like with non-essential catering items like self-serve bar
