Really looking forward to my MEL-PER-LHR flights in a couple of weeks, and visiting the new Perth lounge which opens today.
Some pictures of the new Perth lounge in here, along with a lot of great Qantas historical images:
Qantas London Perth Direct History, inflight service, and lounges
I wish that Captain Cook lounge still existed!
Towards the end of the article it says 'get up really early a few days before the flight'.
I like my sleep too much, don't see anybody practising this for the flight.
