Just basics, it will be a two class cabin going forward a 'proper' full service Business class seperated from economy, new uniforms across all employee groups, and massive attempt to bring a good consistant product no matter where you fly with the VB group of airlines, which in my opinion is VB's biggest down fall, right from the type of boarding pass you get in MEL compared to say ADL.

Terminal/lounge refurbs in BNE/MEL and SYD, BNE starts in around four weeks time, carpet will be gone bar the boarding gates, the rest will be titled, major Lounge refurbs in BNE/MEL and a tweaking of the SYD lounge as it has only just recently be reopened.

Widebodies currently being looked at and are before the board but pretty much confirmed its going to happen and has to happen for the main reason being slots into SYD, Turboprops were mentioned but not as high on the agenda as widebodies at this stage.

Pretty much the leisure market is still very important and that wont change, he really is hungry to grow the business market and to double the membership of the Velocity FF program which is currently at around 2M members where as QF have around 8M members.

That pretty much sums it up.
