This is NOT a promotional video. I pay for all of my flights and hotels (and I always tell you how much!) so I can be as honest and impartial as possible. I do not receive any special treatment that wouldn’t otherwise be publicly accessible, in fact, the hotels and airlines have no idea about my visit and that's the way I like it!

I’ve always loved your content and your style of presenting them. Your wit, knowledge, and honesty are the highlights!

As an avgeek, I absolutely love the facts and information you present, plus the departure and arrival details keep things interesting. Keep up the brilliant work, Kevin. Cheers!

I have travelled in this particular aircraft in Jan 2020 from Sydney to Tokyo but in economy class.Qantas service in Economy class was not so up to mark but the flight attendants were super energetic ❤.. Awesome review as usual

[josephchien]

Highly recommended to fly the Taiwanese carrier- China Airlines, as they also operate on AKL-BNE route, which is absolutely a great product on food, seat pitch etc.

[Hatsunari_Kamado]

A rare instance of you boarding a special alliance jet 🎉

The crew are always amazing for me with qantas. The hard product needs major improvement though

[paulkazzer]

QF Frequent Flyer has entrapped 14 million members which is a huge pool of passengers who’ll put up with an average product. The departure of the former CEO should hopefully put concern for the passengers ahead of the corporate shareholders. Hope you enjoyed Brisvegas as it’s affectionately known. Great review as always.

[prismofrandom]

Great video! My day is always a little better every time you post a flight review. Keep it up.

Yet again, another brilliant trip report. I flew this same route in late March year with Air New Zealand on their 787 and paid GB£171 or US$217. I really loved Auckland Internatioal Terminal. I found it quiet and intimate compared to most international airports such as Heathrow, Dubai and Singapore. I also flew BNE to SIN a week later with Qantas but in Business Class. I found the ground staff very friendly and supporive at a very emotional farewell to Austrailia and New Zealand and other more personal reasons. I woud certainly fly them again in 2025 when I visit Austrailia again. Your economy class headphones were certainaly better than Air New Zealand ear buds. Keep up the super reviews. Thank you 💙

In my opinion Qantas has lost the plot. Maybe the new CEO will get it together but I'm not optimistic.

This is the first time that I have watched a video on your channel, and I am impressed. It was a breath of fresh air to have somebody reviewing an Economy Class flight, as most Vloggers I've seen, generally corrall themselves in the unattainable Valhalla of Business Class, which impecunious mortals like myself very rarely get to travel in. It is good to see 'Cattle Class' getting a review, as it is the fate of most of us. I haven't flown with Qantas internationally for many years, more due to their habit of changing or cancelling flights, losing baggage and lousy customer service on their booking and 'help' services, than anything else. There are much better alternatives to Qantas operating out of Australia now!

[DeniseSommerRoque]

I flew Qantas domestic Perth Adelaide last October and really liked it. The crew were so warm and genuinely hospitable! Thank you for your reference to Big Daddy KLM for being the oldest airline still operating under its original name. Something we were/are always very proud of as the crew in blue 💙

I rode the Qantas A330 back in 2006 when they had ample legroom. They may have added a few more rows since then which may explain the reduced legroom.

[garciatunion]

Im in Melbourne right now, I had a surgery few days ago, Im feeling awful, can't wait to get well and start traveling again, your channel will help at the moment

[hbkba]

appreciate your comment on the seat gap they have!!

[petek]

Thanks for the upgrade tip, I tried for the first time last year from premium economy to business class but no luck. I’ll definitely try again though.

[HaCkErk]

This will come in handy very soon when i have to decide how to travel to melounre and around australia on an upcoming trip.

[jackybaynes]

As a nearly 6ft Australian, I ALWAYS pre book my seat at an exit, so I can actually move my legs!

[susanquigley]

Qantas was once one of the best airlines in the world. I was proud to say I worked for them 50 years ago. Over the years the service and quality has steadily declined. Hopefully the new CEO can come to the rescue and once again make it a competitive airline.

[therealchuckyg]

I’ve flown that exact plane nearly 15 hours on that same plane from BNE - LAX and back. I would have definitely a 787 preferred on this flight like out of Sydney and Melbourne.

Hi Kevin, thanks for your videos. I am currently in BKK visiting family having flown here on the Qantas A330 for the first time, it was ok I guess but I have finally come to the conclusion that it all depends on the cabin crew if the food is edible or not, a flight I had 12 months ago from Changi to AU on SIA was the worst I have ever experienced, terrible cabin crew, inedible food no drinks, (3 times the price pre covid too), the legroom problem is always a pain in economy. Thanks again for your reviews mate.
