I'm going out on a limb here, especially as many here hate the 'why don't they fly the xxx to xxx' type posts, but the All Business to LHR was unexpected.
But here's my wish list, and a massive advantage to QR... revert to two class, and fly to.. Koh Samui.
Easily within range, a destination EY and EK cannot fly to, and demands a premium over BKK / HKT. A once daily flight. After all a decent % of QR's passengers fly to USM via BKK. Could be the islands only non-Asian flight... and let's face it, plenty of premium passengers fly to Koh Samui.

Great news, QRs 787 is currently my favourite J product - and in terms of connections, it has a perfect 1:30h connection to Singapore (departing 9:05).
I will certainly be making use of this ^

I booked QR16 for myself and 3 of my colleagues. Originally a 787, which we were all looking forward to, reserved our seats and thought we were all set. I then received an email to say that the AC had changed to an A319. At first I was a bit disappointed, but reading reviews it seems its a great service.
I get the impression its not normally full?
