London to Perth - Qantas' longest flight in business class

Hello, this time I'm back at the airport. I am flying from London Heathrow to First Australia on their direct service. It is the only direct air link between the United Kingdom and Australia. 17 odd hours on a Qantas 787. It's just a small problem. I'm currently in Amsterdam so I have to go to London first and then catch that Qantas

flight

now to get to London. I'm taking British Airways, which in its heyday was known as the world's favorite airline, unfortunately those days are long. However, today they are in red and taking me to London to connect on this Qantas

flight

, so let's go and enjoy the VA service.

My destination on this trip is actually a game, so we'll see if flying London and direct routes to Perth and then connecting to Adelaide is better than going via the Gulf or Singapore or Hong Kong. My British Airways flight was an uneventful 60-minute hop to London on an A320. I was flying

business

class in Europe, which like all European airlines is essentially a safe economy class with the middle seat blocked. Tea was served in the morning, which consisted mainly of cold cuts, which was actually just what I felt. We get some really nice views of London on the way to Heathrow and then some really cool views of Gate F.

When we get to land, I love going by local time, here it's an hour behind the monkey dance, so I approach for the main shift. Ok, we arrive at Heathrow. It's 90 minutes until my Qantas flight leaves. Let's go in the meantime my body says it's approximately. At 5:30 in the morning I started this trip in Detroit and flew their Delta to Amsterdam this morning during that flight. I slept for about 20 minutes, so I didn't get much sleep if you haven't seen that review, that's a lot of Hanul, just look. Oh yeah, I was really impressed with the Delta One product.

I'll put the link below. I had very little time in the room so instead of filming I decided to use my time more wisely, a super quick transfer, a dash through the airport and arrived at the conscious man with enough time to have an espresso martini, the perfect way starting a 17-hour flight. Greetings, sir. great start to flying it, that's good, thank you very much, how about I thank you, let's do it. Today's trip would be on a 787 - 9 that was delivered in June 2018 and named after the most famous kangaroo that ever lived, Skippy, those of you. who didn't grow up in Australia in the 70's and 80's laughs look up Skippy on YouTube oh yeah that's the best way to start playing Frank thanks you know what's coming.

Greetings, for an excellent path, thanks for changing the content. spirit of this fan now is also a good time to remind you to consider subscribing to my channel, but only if you like that kind of stuff, no pressure just make sure you do it, before we get stuck into the review let's take a closer look close up. Today's route, this London shuttle service carries the third

longest

flight in the world, at just over 9,000 miles. Flight time is usually over 17 hours, but today, with a nice tailwind and the fact that we were flying downhill, the flight time was just over 16 hours.

What makes these flights special compared to other ultra-long-haul flights is that this one links to previously unconnected continents. Never before have Europe and Australia had a non-stop scheduled service. Normally, flying between Europe and Australia requires a refueling stop at one of the large hub airports in the Gulf or Asia. This non-stop flight is part of the dawn of the Qantas Project that will eventually include non-stop connections from Australia's east coast to London. In New York the

business

class cabin on the Qantas 787 is installed in a one-to-one configuration, meaning each seat has direct aisle access. It's probably best for couples to sit in the middle seats;

However, due to the tiered seating design, none of the seats are that close to each other, so couples can also go with the window seats one behind the other. I also turned behind the curtain to see Premium Economy, which was arranged in a 2 3 2 configuration. Behind Premium Economy was the main economy cabin with a 3 3 3 configuration. I was definitely sitting in the best seats in the house. Seats on this aircraft are consistent with those offered by Qantas on its A330 aircraft. They are a big improvement over the frame seats featured on this Qantas 747 and A380, as mentioned above these seats are staggered meaning some are closer to the aisle and some are closer to the window.

He was sitting in one of the side aisle seats. These are not as private, however, they allow for easier access during meals as the armrest can be lowered. What I like most about these seats. Its practical design has everything you need within reach, including the USB port and power outlet, there is also plenty of space to spread out and store your things, the storage compartment next to your seat is the perfect place to store your things. shoes and having easy access to go to the bathroom in the middle of an aisle, seat adjustments were easy using this central control panel and the seat itself was very comfortable and offered good support, including a leg rest, there was plenty of room for the legs and good width between the shoulders and the seat all included.

Quite a great seat for a very long flight before lunch, let's take a look at the onboard amenities provided for this flight. The colorful amenities kit contains some lotions and potions from a spa and various other things to make the flight more comfortable for a long time. take Qantas business fast, which means guarantee of one thing and that is in relaxed pajamas, now that we are regular viewers you will know that I am a big lover in flight pajamas because they make the trip much more comfortable, so let's take a look to which The Qantas and Fly pajamas look like these days, here we go, so here they are the big tank, the big kangaroo on the front and great all the way down.

Remember that as soon as you put on your pajamas, you will be confined to the business class cabin. because if you're wandering around the plane in Premium Economy or economy class in your business class pajamas, everyone will think you're addicted, so stay in the business class cabin, everyone will be wearing them, so it'll be a great sleepover during the next 15 and a half years. From hours to once in the air service I started with the drink from the bar to prepare for sleep after lunch. I went with Bailey's on the rocks. This was accompanied by a kind of fried canopy.

I don't remember what it was. It's okay, but I would have preferred some nuts. We were flying over Frankfurt Airport, one of several European cities, including Paris and Rome, that Qantas used to fly to. I show the full food and drink menus at the end of the video that way. I get stuck straight into food now that I'm so hungry. Lunch started with potato and leek soup, which really hit the spot. Served on Qantas, excellent crusty sourdough bread and a simple green salad for main course. I went with braised cod with ancho chili. Rice pilaf with green beans and Pepita Armond sauce and walnuts was delicious.

I didn't have wine with my meal, but this is what they offered me. I was exhausted from jet lag, so I skipped dessert and made my bed instead. It comes with a seed mattress topper for added comfort, a soft bedspread and a large pillow complete the picture. Sometimes foot room on airplane beds can be an issue, but not here. These Qantas seats have plenty of foot room. I've really hit the wall very well. about 10 L asleep should be enough for me now we'll see how this Qantas, our live business class platform, says good night. I didn't manage to get ten hours of sleep, but seven and a half hours is a solid effort and I woke up just as well.

We were passing through Sri Lanka while the rest of the cabin was still asleep. I had a cup of tea and an Aussie treat and worked a bit on my KLM 747 video. I also checked out the snacks available in the kitchen, however, jet lag told me so. the hole in my stomach could only be filled with a fried chicken burger so that's exactly what I ordered and it was sensational as I devoured this. Let me show you the Qantas entertainment system. I thought the entertainment system is excellent. It can be controlled with this remote control. However, I found the touch screen to be just as easy, there were plenty of options for TV movies and music.

Noise canceling headphones were provided but I tend to use my own as Qantas is a long term focused operator where they have a very strong focus. -Being on board their collection of meditation videos was excellent and the views they offered along the coast were stunning. Therefore, I arrived in Perth. Now everyone ends up taking their coffee very seriously and so does Qantas, so the cabin is just waking up for the morning. and here he is busy preparing Piccolo's latte and espressos. Thank you so much. Greetings. Thanks and the verdict. The delicious office has guaranteed good coffee on Qantas.

Once a cabin had had its caffeine fixes, it was time for brunch. Still conscious of the fact that I would skip dessert. I chose the sweet option, buttermilk pancakes with lemon curd and berries along with some fresh fruit and yogurt to counteract the pancakes. I also had spinach, cucumber, apple, celery and lemon juice. Look mom, I'm being healthy, people coming up. from the flight deck as we approach the birth we will finally take you to Perth at midday, those of you on the right great view of Rottnest Island with little Crocker and those on the left will see the main beaches of the Earth beautiful. day in Perth thanks for the wine with Qantas if you enjoy your weather story Cheers as we land, it's a good time to reflect on this direct flight and how it compares to flying around Asia or the Gulf if you live in Perth and going to London it's a Obviously, this direct service is excellent if you live in other Australian cities, the advantage is not so great, also the transfer to Perth is very easy.

Perth Airport pales in comparison to Singapore, Changi or even Doha Road Dubai Airport. Also note that the onward connection from the benefit will often be on a smaller 737 aircraft, especially if you are going to Adelaide or Brisbane. That said, the quality of Qantas' inflight service and those business class seats certainly make this a very attractive proposition, especially if the alternative is the former Qantas a380 business class product that flew to London from Sydney and Melbourne via Singapore see you later thanks for the great Wi-Fi thanks it was brilliant and how nice it is to be home my flights from Las Vegas to Perth now just one more sector and then I'm home that's all.

I landed in Perth. I flew here non-stop from London. A fairly new flight. I still can't understand that we can cover those distances in one go. A really good flight although the service on board. It was fantastic, the crew, a wonderful seat, very comfortable, the food also fantastic, very threatening, around 7:00, half an hour, I slept very happy with it, I don't know what time it is, according to my body, in Detroit, It's 1:00 a.m. m., it could be an hour from Amsterdam, it could be London time or it could be Detroit time. All I know is that from here I have one more flight until I get home, that's a domestic 737 service with Qantas, so let me go and do that and in the meantime go and check out my channel where you'll find lots of other reviews and more on the way.
