The 733's have the old style bench First seats which have no headrest, lumbar support or legrest. The 734's have the convertable J seats which have no headrest, lumbar support or legrest and slope on a slight diagonal angle as a result of being "converted". Basically I would stay away from both of these aircraft.
I don't mind the 738's as they have a curtain between J and WHY but have a slower flying time that the 330 and 767.
In economy I avoid the 73x's like the plague. The seats are too narrow, especially for a long trip like Cairns to Perth. Again my choice would be for the 330's
CNS-PER I have no choice, there is only 1 nonstop service QF1031 2225 0125+1 showing aircraft 73H , whatever that means.
SYD-CNS I can choose from Saturday departing
QF 926 1320 1630 aircraft 73H
QF 932 1915 2225 dto. 734 or Sunday departing
QF 167 0810 1110 dto. 763
QF 924 0920 1220 dto. 332
Here I think the QF167 with the 763 is an international version ???
PER-SYD I have the following options
QF 574 0610 1215 aircraft 734
QF 642 0950 1555 dto. 73H
QF 580 1215 1820 dto. 332
