Re: [Video Only] ALONE in ANA New First Class 'THE Suite' - Boeing 777-300ER NRT to LAX

It's lucky there were no other passengers in First. You drank enough champagne for the rest of them! I'm surprised you could stand up when getting off the plane!

Great report.

Re: Ahoy there, Qsuites, nice to meet you! Flying up front Sydney to Doha on Qatar Airways 777 business class

I once had burger and chips on an Etihad flight and it was the best thing ever. More airlines should do chips lol.

Nice report thanks. Did you drink that whole bottle of Tattinger?

Re: British Airways Club World on the 777 from London to Sydney is not the same during a pandemic!

Baexecutive,

I appreciate everything you say. However charging 4k for business class in the current climate is just taking the piss, even if it is all the way to Australia.

Re: The British Airways A350 Club Suite Experience

Very clean looking! The A350 is a beautiful aircraft.

Re: AA Flagship Business 787-9 - AKL-LAX, 1A, 1/11/2019

Not sure what it is about American carriers but compared to Middle Eastern carriers that food is pretty shocking tbh.

Re: British Airways Club World on the 777 from London to Sydney is not the same during a pandemic!

Interesting report. I'm surprised BA are still charging that amount for Club and First though considering everything. I would have chosen not to fly though unless it was absolutely vital given everything that's been going on. I would love to see a report on the hotel in Chippendale lol.

Re: Shocking Catering - Etihad 787-9 Hong Kong to Abu Dhabi (EY833) in economy

The benchmark is Emirates. EY is introducing a bunch of cost-cutting "innovations" that will simply chase more people away. Most people will now go for EK with their superior and consistent product (though FZ codeshares sometimes ruin that) or QR with their very strong route network. Not ...

Re: Today's equivalent of the Canon 350D?

Thanks. I guess it comes down to budget. I hadn't expected the 100-400L to jump in price so much. I think I got my first one for just over £1k. So I reckon £500 max for a camera would be the most I could afford.

Today's equivalent of the Canon 350D?

I haven't owned a DSLR since I had the 350D and the 100-400L . I see the lens has really shot up in price to over £2k.

Can someone please tell me what camera would be best to replace my old Canon?

Thanks in advance.

From Manchester To Sydney And The Whitsundays

Hi all, Back in November last year we visited family down under in Sydney. The trip was for 23 nights with 5 of those nights being spent on a short trip up to Hamilton Island where I have never been before. The whole holiday was more or less the trip of a lifetime. Hamilton Island was indeed the hig...

I started to read the report with great excitement and was really gutted when I scrolled down and the majority of pics don't show up. Anyway, as you say it is a rather different way to travel to Oz from the UK. I'd be interested in knowing how much it costs compared to Etihad or Emirates. And how lo...

Nice pics though. Thanks for sharing.
