As for comparing QF Link to ZL – I realise there may be absolutely no logical or sensible rationale for this statement – but I'd happily go without tea and coffee and be seated on a new(ish) and four abreast Dash-8 rather than a 20 year old three abreast Saab.

The only attraction now with QF is the Crash8-400 and more chance of being looked after if the last flight of the day is cancelled. Actually, the single seat on the SAAB is quite pleasant (so long as you have the ear plugs).
