Lurker,
You got that right.
I mate of mine flew to LHR on QF1 late June. Said it took most of the SYD-BKK sector to get the IFE working.
That's nearly as good as the sector he did a few months back where he was told the pax in the upper deck had 3 bottles of wine loaded (full pax load). The FA's had to scrounge arounge downstairs for some extra bottles.
