CX used to have cloth towels in the J bathrooms. Then in around 2010 (approximately) they were removed as many people started flushing them down the toilet and blocking the plumbing. Well this is what was reported - not sure if it is the real reason.
The QF "hot" "towels" are quite dismal - cloth which has had water poured over them. CX and QR hot towels are proper steamed towels.
