Great Flight. Qantas do have a solid product but i feel they do need to upgrade soon to compete with other airlines around the world. The skybed's are getting old now and really could do with a good makeover to keep them up there. Great seats no doubt but i feel if they change now they wont lag behind in the future. Also its worth mentioning if you are someone that may fly this route in the future i strongly recommend Fiji's product. For the price you pay with fiji its probably the best product around. If money isnt an issue go qantas but it only costs $1875 for the flight with Fiji compared to $3650 with qantas, there is no way that exra money is worth it.

Thanks for sharing!
They know how to treat premimum customers.
I am bit underwhelmed by the catering, would have been nice to have more details especially the winelist.
but my Wife was a bit annoyed
- Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned. It sounds like FJ did everything to get the issue resolved and you certainly can't complain with how everything worked out not only getting a direct flight, but getting the chance to fly upper-deck on a B747, a dying privilege these days. So what did you do all day? You were checking in early morning, but the actual QF flight wasn't until midnight. Did they get you a hotel for the day?
I like how they crossed out 23:25 on your boarding pass at put 11:25 instead... the whole 24-hour thing is just way too complicated for us simple-minded Americans :)
Catering looks light for this flight. Only a dinner and a la carte breakfast offering? Dinner menu does look good with some exotic options that you wouldn't find on your standard US carrier (lamb, halibut, beef cheeks).
Thank you for the spotting bonus, really liked the morning shots at SEA with sun coming through the clouds.
At the end of the day, a disastrous cancelled flight turned into a nice surprise. Thanks for sharing this series with us.
And im glad you liked the spotting. Ill tell you it was really funny on the JFK to LA flight because on our holiday we drove from Denver to NYC (via a few places) but i spotted highways and towns that we drove through from the plane which was very cool.
once again thanks for reading i will do reports when ever i fly from now on :)
