Re the free wine... if it's what was served in coach I can't imagine a high-flying P1 being all that interested in it. Though QF's business class wines are usually respectable so maybe it was that.
Yes I know! It was from a QR status match to NZ Elite - matched to highest tier.. and because of COVID lockdown kept getting extended. I fly TT NZ J frequently so definitely will switch these return flights over to QF to check out the lounge!
