• JFK-FRA-SIN is a quandry for SQ.  They could definitely use the A380 on the FRA-SIN sector just about all the time but it was often too much for the JFK-FRA sector.  They are currently using the 77W on the route which is probably about right given most of the premium NYC-SIN pax wo...

  • Unlikely to happen.  Just like QF's Chairman's Lounge, membership is offered to people the airline deem influential (political, media etc) and who value their privacy.  If VA or QF made access available to frequent air-warriors, this exclusivity would be lost.  It sounds snobby but...

  • Supplementing the A380 instead of smaller 77Ws or A350s would be the only way they could increase Australian non-stop capacity from MEL, SYD or BNE.  I'm not sure they are too attracted to operating through lesser ports such as HBA or CBR.  No one has had much success doing that.&n...

  • I guess QR may look to move more of its MEL and SYD flights towards A380s to make use of the available slots it is allowed.

  • So, from your observations, you say VA can't fill all 8 J seats so, on that basis, they should add another 4?How do you know that the vacant J seat you saw wasn't next to a super-high value Beyond member and there is more value in letting that person have a vacant seat next to them rather than ha...

    As you are travelling J Class, I would think you would access whatever lounge the MH check-in staff direct you to. This may not necessarily be the Qantas Lounge.You will not be able to earn QF points or status credits on the MH sector as your ticket shows an TK flight number. (The QF status cred...

  • The WiFi installed on A332s is only activated on domestic services even though many international services operated by the same A332s to places like DPS, CGK and SIN spend over half the flight time over the Australian continent where Skymuster coverage is available.

  • With Qantas now looking to replace their A330s in the next four or five years, it is entirely possible that they will never get fitted with WiFi. Qantas is basically a decade behind their competition having mucked around for years waiting for an international system that meets their needs and wh...
