TV3's words not mine! First class on a Qantas A380 with lie flat beds and food & wine as good as at the Palace! (I did the same flight through Dubai in economy last year and it wasn't too bad at all.)

They funny. Especially since SQ21 started up again and took over the longest and that's not even that long :P

Surprised they didn't throw in there 'for a pregnant woman'

“The flight was OK but the only food they offered us was gruel”.

Sometimes I just sit and think. Other times I just sit.

Travelling with your personal hairdresser must be a real drag. Poor peasants.

Lazy is such an ugly word, I prefer to call it selective participation

I've flown Dubai -> Melbourne in a Qantas A380 and the quality of Economy was shocking compared with Emirates or Singapore Airlines.

I've seen some flight trip reports about Qantas A380 first class & one very experienced flyer said the Qantas 'beds' were very good.
