All that and great service. At Qantas you get given the 3rd degree when you ask for anything, as if they are doing you a favour, by letting you fly with them.
And of course lets never forget when the little leprechaun stranded passengers all around the world with no notice, and his other personal habits which turn off a large percentage of the population.
Almost 3 times Air NZ price (on a nice new B787) to fly to LAX, on an old noisy, dry B747 and for that premium, you don't even get wifi
