TRIP REPORT Qantas 787-9 Premium Economy

[@emilienanglada5136]

Flew premium economy on Qantas from Sydney to HongKong in March and it was the best flight I have ever been on. The seat and service was absolutely excellent. great video!!

[@carolleenkelmann3829]

Oh, yes. Those were the days my friend. B.M. - August, 2019!

[@NewYorkAviation]

Certainty. Let's hope things return to normal soon.

[@carolleenkelmann3829]

@New York Aviation unfortunately it won't be a normal like before 2020 but just to be able to fly again without terrible restrictions would be so wonderful. So, here's to a Happy New Year and to aviation and a flight from NY to LA, on to Brisbane on QF 16, Prem Economy looked really good.

[@Sanznachito]

Really great to remember what it was like to fly pre pandemic... thank you for sharing! 🙏

[@TripReportaviation]

Awesome trip report! It's much better than flying with US carriers. Love your wing view. The service was like on long-haul flights

[@pritamkoli]

Nice coverage

[@davefrommelbourne1237]

As I’ve mentioned before the JFK-LAX tag flight is very unique. It’ll be interesting to see when they commence the non-stop from JFK 🦘👍

[@NewYorkAviation]

I prefer the stop in LA so hopefully not for a while

You didn't finish your veggies LOL. Thanks for the review, the meal looks(or even taste) better than CX business class meals.

[@NewYorkAviation]

I know! My mom would not be happy. The meal was great, definitely not as presentable as CX business but tasted far better. And that’s all I really care about :)

[@merridybenton7028]

did your seat recline as far back as the ones in front of you?

[@aussieragdoll4840]

You didn't mention it, so maybe you didn't know... the pillows are designed to fit over the headrest. So you don't need to keep adjusting the pillow to stop it falling during your flight.

All day flying must have been fun

[@NewYorkAviation]

haha, it was

[@aviation1912]

[@jovanholland36]

NY to LA on a Qantas 789?

[@_w_w_]

Yes, cuz Southwest sucks.

[@NewYorkAviation]

_w_, haha - these are the type of comments that make me love the Aviation community.

Only offshore through booking is permitted to undermine domestic US competition by offshore carriers. International standards generally exceed domestic standards. The through booking concept was explained at the beginning, it was printed.

[@thegreatguy7615]

do you have family in melbourne? currently in lockdown in melbourne and watching your videos and notice a majority of them are to melbourne haha.

[@NewYorkAviation]

Yes! I have family in Geelong. Victoria seem to be going into lockdown every couple of months, it’s quite unfortunate

[@RealAdventuresWithAlbany]

Cool

[@michaelsharp3615]

Fly to Omaha sometime please!!!

[@NewYorkAviation]

I will make that a priority

[@kyblack123]

Lol. Like me, didn’t eat your verges.😊

[@carrisasteveinnes1596]

No used needles, cigarette butts and feces on the floor. Yep, that is an Australian airline.

[@marystewart9712]

Flying these days is a nightmare not an experience. Short hops are fine like catching the bus to the shops but long haul is little better than livestock transport except with humans. You are shunted on and shunted off without little more than a perfunctory nod of the head. No crew member ever asks did you enjoy your flight because they know you would be a masochist if you said yes. The toilets are disgusting, the food who cares you are not going to get anything else and by the time you arrive at your destination you are sleep deprived, humiliated by being being jostled by your fellow passengers who all seem bent on being first on and first off so why do they insist on bringing their luggage on board rather than checking it in and possibly needing therapy.

Eat your vegetables damn it...
