Hawaiian Airlines cf. Qantas

I have travelled on both and I reiterate that the 767s of Hawaiian are in much better shape than QF..The interiors are colourful and contemporary.It must be at least 10 years since QF 76s had a makeover.
The Qantas CC try hard but spend the first two hours of a sector apologizing for the aircraft interior and lack of modern IFE.Most kids travelling on holidays can't see the bloody Video screen.At Christmas for example there can be 20 to 30 children under the age of 10 travelling...its challenging.
it also helps that Hawaiian have an extra 2 CC...nothing is rushed
Qantas was once an industry innovator always ahead of the curve.They invented Business Class.Now they barely know how to play catchup.
Hudson Fysh would be apoplectic to see what has been done to his creation
