Does the QF pilots union have a hotel committee???...from what I,m reading it is the company who does all the hiring and firing of hotels.
The company I work for allows the pilot unions hotel committe to do all the required groundwork and submit proposals etc etc...They (the company) control the purse strings but generally agreement is reached and most crews are happy with the selection,as those on the hotel committe(on company buisness,)inspect and stay at these establishments before mainline crews use them.
I was on the Hotel committee several years ago,the one thing that was apparent was, that sifting through the hundreds of complaints,it was painfully obvious that the same names(those complaining the loudest)would appear on a regular basis.I think it is worth mentioning,this may not be the case at QF,but some people will piss and moan even when hung with a new rope ..PB

Blatantly obvious solution for Quantas LA hotel issues:
Sack all the old hags who are doing the whinging and replace them with new American gals, kind of like they did with the poms in Heefrow.
These girls can over-night in Sydney instead of the other way around and you could pay them less too. This plan will ensure that the:
-Hosties are happy.
-Pax are happy.
-Pilots are happy.
-Management are happy.
-Tired old boilers and flouncing poofs are........... NOT happy. But who cares???
Make sure they are all young and luscious too. Throw in a few of dem southern gals from Naw-leeunns because they talk sexy!

That is without doubt the best suggestion I have heard yet
Should run the same plan in Tokyo and Frankfurt
The old boilers and flouncing poofs are the Achilles heel of the airline
(btw no u in Qantas shaggs)

Ha Ha afraid not Simon.
The faults of many, if not the majority of Qf long haul cabin crew are cold hard facts and sad reality pal.
Having not seen the LA hotel or downtown area I can't comment. But Pasadena was very very good and I suspect more secure with much better shopping. I'm sure they are very Pi$$ed about moving from there. However is downtown LA any worse than Jo'burg, Manila or Jakarta?? Argentina used to be very dicey too but never a winge about that !!! Ha Ha as if.

qcc2 Please be careful about generalisation. Yes I have seen an American carrier in several top 10 surveys. That some of these surveys, not all of them, were only for American carriers is beside the point!!!
Just don't generalise. Yes I'm a bit of a pedant!
