Qantas- domestic can be a lottery from checking in to what you fly on.
Dash8 always comfortable out to Lord Howe,
Dash8-400 overgrown Metro, never seem to get a departure time that matches your scheduled one,
B717 great aeroplane to fly in, but crews are paid a pittance,
B737 getting tired, squeezy down the back.

Jetstar- the greyhound bus, okay for point to point travel.

Known clientele, just travel wearing your best flannelette shirt and front teeth in.

Virgin- good product, flown 8 sectors with them over the last few weeks.
Pretty squeezy down the back.

Before the prune experts jump in, I have flown an average 8-10 sectors domestically over the last 35 years.
That includes Australian Airlines, Ansett, Impulse, East-West, Airnorth, Jetstar, Qantas domestic and the foreigners during 1989.
