Happy to see your videos again Rory. Great to see this flight back - used to take it all the time on my return from Perth . Always a great flight to be relaxed and come home.

[debramage]

Gee remember when it was a 6 hour flight minium. Going to NZ later, premium economy for this lass. Thanks Rory.

[raelenesharp-rczw]

LOVE your reviews Rory! ❤from Perth ✈️

[scottietheshark]

I think I'll take the first lounge, please! Pretty good deal for premium economy!

[littlemiss_]

[tangiers]

hey rory i think i saw u sunday morning crosing the road at flinder st station, saw ur insta to see if u were in melb and saw ur story. hope ur well mate, sorry to hear about it.

[zakelwe]

Great review as always Rory. Someone needs to sort out the cooking at the lounge and missing a course on the plane is just plane odd, pardon the pun.

[debbieanne]

Hi Rory I only found your channel a few days ago and love it ❤ have watched many of your old videos. Seeing you departed through the international terminal could you purchase duty free? I guess not. You are the best train, plane and ferry reviewer on YouTube

[jasonfoster]

Hey Rory, hope you are feeling okay from your incident in Melbourne.

[heathertruskinger]

Moustache, now Rori ?
Good look !
A pity that Virgin stopped wide bodied flights to Perth from Melbourne, a few years back. But that was understandable with the money concerrns in 2020, and trying to restructure.
Now qantas is cutting wide bodied flights too ( well, at least from Melbourne)....that takes it pretty much to a 737 duopoly ( with a few A320/321) thrown in.
The market is the costing is so high to have any kind of real comfort....most just end up having to choose being in the sardine cans, that make up economy on these flights.
I forgot to add... another great and comprehensive video. Thanks

Bom dia rosy lindo avião boa viagem ai bom trabalho ai

[deelightfool]

Great vid as usual Rory. I Lol'd at the Gau Bao and it's generous serving of pork.
I have a question what do you do with your bags in the lounge? Is there somewhere we're to store them or do you have to carry them around with you?
