I feel bad about being so negative on this issue as there are lots of things I do like about the Koru Clubs such as great, real coffee, and mostly pretty decent food compared to lounges in the rest of the world.

I seem to recall when NZ enhanced the domestic services, Koru Hour, food offerings, to give the final kick to QF, that newspapers were available to all on the breakfast flights. QF had that as part of the shortlived Cityflyer service
