Also CX have better schedule/frequency: 10x weekly in Aus Summer, daily in Aus Winter. There is choice for overnight and daytime departures. I believe QF only has 3 or 4x weekly, so not much frequency.
The CX biz seats are still the herringbone coffins. OTOH if you are traveling alone and your shoulders are not too wide, they would be acceptable.

At the moment the CX schedule is far better. Seems the QF A33x is shared with the HKG-BNE service so QF is 3x weekly.

It is possible to connect with the PER(QF)-SIN(CX)-HKG service. Not certain about the ticketing exPER though. Normally available exHKG.

Happy wandering
