Qantas To Reconfigure International Aircraft

[Nutrageous]

If P class disappears, where will all the staff sit on duty travel? Not to mention the pilots and exec mgrs on staff travel? heaven forbid - sounds like a recipe for more disgruntlement.

Not to mention the pilots and exec mgrs on staff travel? heaven forbid - sounds like a recipe for more disgruntlement.

Most pilots realise now that even on a "High Priority" Long Service Leave trip their chances of getting any seat on an International flight is significantly reduced, as various staff with apparently far more responsible roles (regardless of length of service) in the company command a much higher priority than long serving staff.

By adjusting onload and upgrade staff categories Qantas have effectively made international travel far more practical, comfortable and relaxing on someone else's airline.

Try ZED fares. They beat staff travel hands down.

I heard talk last week that the 2 class B744s will be getting a reconfig of some sort over the next few months....

Y+ seats being finally added.

Hopefully they add the new Y class seat covers as well as the updated carpets and curtains to match the rest of the B744 fleet!
