I don't mind their catering, although I wish food would be presented on a tray instead of a box, although I understand the practicality and respect the waste minimisation and optimising of weight. The offerings in the J lounges and Qpub could definitely be better/more authentic to Asian flavours if the Ponytailed One is to be the culinary lead, but that's a whole different discussion...
The only thing I can gainsay on this is the superiority of the 777 over the A380. From a QF fleet management and efficiency perspective, the 777 would have been the better choice. But I much prefer flying on the A380. It's like a cruise ship in the sky. It feels so spacious and it is blessedly quiet. I am going to miss the A380 when it is gone, although based on my JL experience on the A350 (which QF is going to use to deliver Project Sunrise), any wistfulness will quickly evaporate as it seemed just as comfortable as the A380!
