Quantas Airline ?
just been pricing flights for April, Quantas coming up£ 500 cheaper than singapore, we have flown with singapore before just wondered what the flights are like with Quantas, do you get the video screens on each seat with the kids games on etc ? what about food and drink couldnt find anything about this on web page, is it included in price or pay extra as and when want something. any extra baggage allowed with this airline ? any info good or bad.... also priced up Cathy Pacific and they have are coming up at £1000 each for a one way flight, surley this cant be right !!!!

Either you are travelling on premium dates and should change the days slightly or checking some mighty odd websites.
Have a look at www.airlinenetwork.co.uk or surprisingly www.expedia.co.uk is also v keen nowadays.
Qantas is a good airline generally speaking and codeshare with BA so if you look there is every chance you will actually be on a BA plane. You can check out every airline with photos and everything of seats at www.airlinequality.com

Just my opinion though.... I've had some bad experiences with them!
Those flight prices look a tad on the high side

Quantas....not bad but we prefer to pay the little extra and fly Singapore Airlines....not much difference in the flight price that we have found but for a long haul flight.....well worth it

QANTAS used to be brilliant - until they hooked up with BA. If you do choose QANTAS, ask for confirmation that you will be on one of their planes and not one of BA's. I am a Life Member of QANTAS with full use of the lounges, etc, etc - all the fruit basically. I fly with Singapore Airlines every time!!

As for prices I am paying £584 (one way) and includes double allowance as this was requested when booking the flight.
Good luck.

Re: Quantas Airline ?
I'm flying to Melbourne with Emirates from London on 7th April returning 21st April. I got my flights for 1 adult and 1 child for £1,100 from www.travelsupermarket.co.uk the actual website was www.opodo.co.uk.
I actually live near to Manchester airport, but they wanted excess of £400 to fly straight through. So, I have opted to go with BA from Manchester to London costing £150 return. More spending money for me in Aus!
Maybe this is an option for you?

Would def recommend EMIRATES!!
Much better sevice-excellent entertainment on every seat back and as it has 3 stops usually-you get to lay out on the whole row if not busy!!

Re: Quantas Airline ?
We have just booked to go from Manchester to Perth on 2nd March with Singapore Airlines - one way - £487 inc taxes etc each, there is two of us.
I found the prices on the various web sites, and went into our local travel agent and they matched the price, so easier than trying to book over the internet, as we could ask questions face to face.
We have only got a 457 sponsored visa for 4 years, so because we are not totally emigrating, we could only get the 20kg baggage allowance. If we could show the emigrating visa we would have got double.
