Virtualtroy´s DONE trip report
For those interested... the alliance news so far...
BA top marks (yes, can hardly believe myself saying so, but kudos where it´s due)
CX - The Wing is the most superb lounge; knocks spots off the LHR Concorde Room. Inflight service: obs so far for SH flights (eg NRT-HKG) fantastic; LH (eg HKG-AKL) about as exciting as eating out in AKL (sorry in advance if I´m offending anyone!!)
QF - well I´m biased as a member of its FF program but what a hard working crew on the 2 recent LH flights MEL-AKL. Didn´t even need to look at my goblet to find it overflowing, so to speak.
LA - gone very downhill. Lost one of my bags for 4 days so not the best start but inflight service in J stinks. I´ve had better experiences in Y, on many occasions.
More soon.

Thanks for the posting. I'm waiting for more as I will be doing a DGLOBEX with among others AY/CX/QF/LA in March.
I already experienced BA on CAI-LHR in D and wasn't very convinced with the service: no smiling, no second offerings, everything had to be asked separately (maybe my expectations were too high or it wasn't the right day for the crew).
