Flying from: Sydney to Brisbane, 2 March 2003
Flight duration: 1 hour 10 mins
Aircraft type & class: Boeing 737-400 Economy (VH-TJW),
2 class aircraft.
Meal type: “Breakfast” – 6.30am departure
- What was in the meal?: Bowl of Just-Right cereal, freezing cold very
small red apple, soggy tasteless “fruit” muffin.
Drink: Orange juice, tea / coffee, milk for coffee, separate
milk for cornflakes.
Comments: "It’s impossible to stuff up cereal,
but not very satisfying either. The muffin was deceptively glue-like and
flavourless (just a filler) and stuck all over my fingers. I had to wash
it off with my orange juice. Knowing that hot meals are extremely rare
on domestic flights, I won’t complain.. but others did. “Did
you see that apple? 2 bites and it’s finished!” and “They
could have at least served us something hot!”. If you’d paid
full fare you would have been a little peeved, considering this was a
6.30am departure. The aircraft had no spare seat, was in need of an interior
refurbishment, and an external paint-job. The in-flight entertainment
however was good. (an Australian comedy + newspapers). Tea and coffee
came through twice. I fully support Qantas in their efforts to take on
the world but this was not one of my better experiences. Qantas, unlike
Qantaslink, calls itself a full-service airline. 2 years ago, a Qantas
breakfast consisted of a hot sausage, bacon, hot eggs with mushrooms &
grilled tomato. Sigh, since the collapse of Ansett and Impulse, we’re
back to a cosy duopoly down under… but this time without a hot breakfast."
Rating 1-10 (worst-best): 4. A sandwich would have been
better. If they’d called this meal a “MORNING SNACK”
instead of “BREAKFAST” I might have been more impressed. But…
I concede … Maybe us Aussie’s have just been spoilt.

Meal type: Morning Refreshment (Economy) - OJ, Fruit
Salad, Banana Pecan Muffin, Spanish Omellette and Chicken Sausage, Shortbread
Biscuit
Drink: Coffee, Bottle of Water
Comments: "As a disclaimer I have to admit, it tasted
and looked a lot better than it appears in this photo. This is part of
Qantas' new upgraded International Economy service. The clear perspex
meal tray along with the redesigned service ware was a HUGE improvement
over what it used to be. tho' this is hard to tell from the photo. For
once, the marketing is true, the food is much better and the portions
have increased. Also the individual bottles of water and (later) wine
were a great touch. Having flown this run many times and found it very
very average i simply couldn't fault the service, food or the brand spanking
new 747-400ER. The IFE is pretty cool too."

Comments: "Well I decided to order a kosher meal.
This is what I was served, an apple and orange and juice. I was 'recommended'
from a fellow traveller that this was a good idea, never do this if you
fly QF, as this is what you will get whilst others will get a nice big
boxed breakfast consisting of muesli bars, pastries, ceral as well as
diced fruit. I'm sure QF could have done better than serve up this type
of food."
