Hi Jayden, great vdo. do you prefer Cathay or Qantas business class seat, food and service between HK and Sydney? Thanks.

sorry for the late reply. Seat wise 100% Cathay. Much Wider feet space and more storage space :) Food and service maybe Qantas for Aussie friendliness.

I'm flying virgin in a few days to Adelaide is it worth it to pay for the va lounge? and is economy x worth the price?

I would bid upgrade a reasonable price to business if possible. Usually start from $50 which includes lounge access but cheaper than walk in price of $60+ and only slightly more than economy x.

the Qantas staff were def very friendly and helpful. your vegan meals looked yum, espesh the fresh fruit. my daughter doesnt eat meat any more, but she said shes not fully vegal because she loves cheese and eggs. lol. i think id prefer a seat right up next to the window, to look out, otherwise - why have a window seat. and if they moved everything closer to the window.. then there would be a bit more of a privacy gap before the isle. seeing your cat, was you in Sydney or south australia or was she staying in sydney with your friends. another great trip report :)

You're like the fourth male vegan flight reviewer I've seen on YT. I feel like there's ironically a niche for non-vegan flight reviewers now, considering so many videos just show airlines' vegan options.

[@TheScratchingKiwi]

Would love to see reviews of gluten-free meals by flight reviewers. I hear some of the meals provided by airlines are abysmal (one banana, plain boiled rice, a glass of water). People with coeliac disease can still eat meat! It looks like ordering the vegan meal with no bread may be better than asking for gluten-free (just avoid the oat milk). If all the flight reviewers go vegan, I guess that opens up the YT market for reviewers who aren't. There are only so many reviews of 'fruit platter' that people will watch! 🤣

[@JaydenWong]

With Qantas the vegan option is available on the menu anyways so you don’t get it first per se. You could even say vegan food is one of the normal options onboard but that’s gonna hurt some people. On my domestic flight yesterday only vegetarian food was served. And nothing to do with Non stop dan Lol. It’s a trend now I guess. I have a few vegan friends myself and vegetarian family members too. We all have different reasons for doing it but I’m not getting into that. TBH myself and most that I know all are quite flexible ie we will try new food when we travel and even if it means breaking the rules of veganism or vegetarianism.
