It was not my intent to start a verbal battle when I posted MY OPINION of a business flight SYD-PER on an A330, thus this will be my final comment on this topic.
1. QF is fortunate if it has any significant number of passangers that fly domestic business only once a year and book 300 days in advance.
2. I don't think CX has any "domestic flights".
3. I am sorry if "thadocta" was mistreated by AA.
4. If QF's no reserved domestic business seat policy is so "great", they should expand it to their international flights and let the market decide.
5. I am flying J to Australia again in March but have only 2 short domestic QF flights. QF will be avoided where possible.
Again -- Just MY OPINION.
