    The gent was correct in saying go visit the Marhaba lounge in Melbourne. It's on the same level as the Qantas First lounge (i.e. above departures level) meaning you get natural sunlight, good views of the tarmac and the food selection isn't bad either. Also, if you happen to have a credit card that has the priority pass lounge membership perk, it's free to get in. The best seat on any airplane is the bulkhead seat since you have no one reclining on you and you have heaps of legroom. Also you are the first to off the plane, first to the liquor cabinet and food and first to the loo! And in business class you never need to worry about overhead bin space.

    Looks like a solid option. Great service and entirely workable seats. I’d kinda always discounted Jetstar business, but I’ll definitely consider them after seeing this. Getting business seats for my family of 4 in Qantas or Singapore is a headache, but looks like plenty of availability on that flight.

    I flew JQ in Business class Melbourne to Phuket back in October this year. It wasn't my first Business flight with them and despite there being a pandemic between flights, not much has really changed, even the menu looked similar. My dog loves the blankets that JQ let you take home!
    Cant fault their Business class soft product, but the hard product is starting to look a bit tired. Fortunately they recently announced a "mid life" refurbishment plan for their Dreamliners, which includes the addition of more Business class seats (at the cost of some Economy seats). The new Business Class seats will still be recliners, most likely similar to the Premium Economy seats available on Qantas flights. They will also be removing the IFE screens, opting for streaming to personal devices and they will be adding internet access. Currently the flight deck crew use two seats in the Business cabin as a rest area, but in the refurb they will be getting a dedicated rest area, allowing JQ to fly longer flights.
    There was no mention of a face masks on my flight, so I can only assume that this was a Vietnam requirement.

    When was the flight? Wondering if masks are back, or whether Vietnam never stopped. Although it seemed to stop post take-off
    Agree Jetstar 'Business' has a good soft product (food and drinks) for the price and compared to other LCCs, and is decent uograde versus Economy.
    StarClass (its original name) was more apt. Its a PE product.

    • @FlightFormula
      @FlightFormula  6 місяців тому

      This was back in the start of September, slowly throughout the flight everyone (including the crew) started to take off the masks. I have no idea what was going on with the rules there.

    • @peterlanders3900

      We flew on Vietnam airlines to Europe from Sydney in June/July. No face masks were required for those flights. Maybe Vietnam reintroduced? If I have to wear a face mask on a plane, I won’t travel.

    • @ThePatriot-gm1fg
      @ThePatriot-gm1fg 5 місяців тому

      ​@peterlanders3900 Nope. They didn't reintroduce masks. I think Vietnam Airlines have only allowed their staff to remove their muzzles back around September. Thai Airways followed suit for their staff on October 1, but passengers generally haven't been required to wear masks on THAI flights (except for countries that still mandated them at the time) since July 2022. Vietnam Airlines didn't specifically mention when masks were no longer required for passengers but it appears as of early 2023 they didn't care anymore. However, on flights to/from Australia in August 2022 they already didn't care.

    • @ThePatriot-gm1fg
      @ThePatriot-gm1fg 5 місяців тому

      ​@FlightFormula Huh? That makes no sense. Even Vietnamese carriers and others such as Singapore Airlines, THAI etc. Have stopped requiring masks to be worn both by passengers (up to a year ago) and crew (several months back) on flights to/from Vietnam.

    Hi I'm relatively new to your channel, was wondering whether JQ had business class, guess that answers my question, however it isn't the nice Business class seat with lie flat beds like ones on EK or QF or any other full fare airline, In saying that JQ's looks like an economy seat. Though it does seem to be comfortable, but I bet not EK business class seat comfortable, I got the once in a lifetime chance to fly EK Business and it was on their B777-300ER, was awesome, I ❤ EK, anyway the service seemed good also by your video and JQ's business class product execution seemed also to be on par with a good economy class full fare, TBH I feel it might be better to pay for a full fare economy class trip then a JQ business class, To me it feels that there should be a little bit more JQ can offer to elevate their business product to make it feel more worth while to pay a business class ticket with them.
