Qantas have certainly chosen a unique seat design for this aircraft. I quite like it, especially the two large windows per row, but I can see features like the coat hook and small light on the seat in front becoming broken quite quickly. Onboard service was a real let down. At least there was better food in the lounge for you to enjoy.

If you were blown away by that product, you should definitely try flying with Eastern Asian or Middle Eastern carriers then your jaw will drop! Recently flew on the BA A350 in club from London to Tokyo for 13 hours, it was very disappointing to say the least (crew were friendly though!). My outbound was with Japan Airlines and I have to say they are a whole world away from BA, BA can only ever dream to be on the same level as them along with most other oriental and Middle Eastern carriers from my experience.

Didn't seem like a premium service on board in my opinion, very dated cabin and the presentation of the food was poor in my opinion. I did like the look of both lounges though, and it's definitely a bonus being able to access the lounge on arrival in Brisbane.

It's not a bad seat in business class overall. ANA'S A380 to Hawaii would be better, JAL's seat is still probably better than Hawaiian's I think. And economy on the 767 looked alright to me too.
@BoywithLoveeee22 күн бұрын
@@LetsTravelAviation I agree. I’ve flown Hawaiian before but not worth paying that much points. I would rather use those point to fly premium on jal or Ana. I’m hoping that they’ll release the availabilities for next month on Ana.

Where do I start. The device holder does not come down like a tray. It was functioning perfectly. It only tilts for when the seat in front reclines. If you sat with your bum firmly into the back of your seat (as designed) you would find ample knee space. Unless you’re over 6ft 5
@LetsTravelAviation25 күн бұрын
Trust me I've flown these A330s many times, and the device holder was definitely broken on this seat (as you can see at 5:45 the left side had broken free of its bracket and was tilting significantly down). And I am just over 6ft so believe me it's not ample legroom. It is better than the 737s but the 787 definitely has more room.

That plane looked dirty... I don't ask for much, but a clean aircraft is one thing I do expect when flying. Haven't flown QANTAS for years... the destinations I go to aren't covered by them. Hopefully things can improve, but the last 20 years has been turbulent for that airline and I don't feel I should reward a company that so openly screwed its employees.

Great video!! the a330 is certainly going to be the best way to cross the country when QF 9 no longer starts in melbourne. It certainly was a missed opportunity for qantas to not refurb the 330 200's when they refurbed some of 330 300's, which in my oppinion are on par with the 787 seats, if not better due to the 2-4-2 layout. Whilst i do love to fly the a330, it sure will be nice when we start to see the new 787-9 and -10s flying east west!

Nasty surprise. 😮 I don’t see why 😂. You got safely, got a decent meal on a regional plane. No; regional planes don’t have free seats next to our as it’s just a 2X2 configuration. At least in Europe. What kind of amenities do you expect on a short hop?. I don’t know what’s wrong with check in. You have dedicated counters in business, and could bring your own boarding card in your phone.
@GG-hi5ifАй бұрын
Totally different side of the world here, but flying BA is slightly worse the seats arent as good (just a usual 3-3 with middle seat blocked). I’d only fly business domestically😢 on qantas or ba for status points. Also hold your mic further away, sounds like youre holding it too close to your mouth

Great trip report. The Embraer 190 is a really comfortable aircraft to fly on. I hope REX do introduce better onboard service so they can compete with Qantas on this route. It would also be great to see the Embraer 190 painted in the REX livery as the National Jet Services livery is quite uninspiring.

Great thing about BA is their crews. They are friendly and delightful most of the time. However, I find BA catering on long haul needs improvement. The portion and presentation is not something I would call business class. Their bedding is too thin compared to many other top tier airlines. Overall, BA is still a decent airline to fly with, but nothing special and nothing to look forward to really.

A350 is my favourite plane, however BA are my least favourite airline, and coming from a Brit that should never be said but they've gone downhill so much over the last 10-15 years that I only use them now if I have very little other option. For me, Finnair are the best European airline.
@r12004rewy3 ай бұрын
Looked a fantastic flight probably helped by a relatively new aircraft, some of BAs long haul fleet are pretty ancient, but even if that is the case the food and cabin service should be of a similar standard. BA certainly seem to be trying to improve their service standards. Agree with you comment on having to walk back from the B gate lounge you are correct
@LetsTravelAviation3 ай бұрын
Yes it was! I've never flown their old club seats but I'm certain the experience wouldn't have been as amazing overall if I did this flight. Perhaps they put some money into figuring out the best catering amounts or maybe it was just luck this flight but I was definately not expecting to get my first choice of all meals, so kudos to them. On other flights in the last row of the cabin I've often been left with only 1 choice. Thanks for the support!

You're absolutely right the train does run from A to C and back to A. And we could absolutely have reboarded the train at B and gone back to A. It is possible if you really want to do it. The only downside is you arrive into A like an arriving passenger and you're only choice to get back to departures is to reclear transit security - something I had neither the time nor the desire to re-do. You can bypass this by just walking back to A.
