Loulouhew Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 Looking to book one way flights to Perth for May 2013 . went with qantas last year for a holiday and found them really good , however they don't seem to be using the A380 from Heathrow . So looked at Singapore who are using it , but they don't have the snacks & drinks readily available like qantas which we found quite hand with the children . Don't want to be bothering the staff all the time for drinks etc ... Anyone flown with others using the A380 and how was your experience? Thanks Lou Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paddyandhollyB23 Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Sorry my flight number is QF2 leaving heathrow at 21.30 on a Sunday. It is the a380 and have paid extra to sit upstairs. Never been on it before and really can't wait! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S92LAME Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 I flew QANTAS A380 out of heathrow all the way to sydney, but for Perth you can only get the A380 to Singapore/Hong Kong, and transfer to prob an A330 to Perth. Flight numbers QF2, QF10 are A380 flights. make sure you check when choosing your flights as you could end up on a BA flight and you wouldnt want that!!! (according to their website QF10 goes via Dubai to Melbourne on some days. not sure if thats a mistake, everthing else points to SIN). But if you want an A380, Qantas, Singapore, Malaysian, Korean, Emirates and Thai, China Southern, Airfrance and Lufthansa fly them. prob all between here and Aus somehow. the A380 is fantastic for room on pretty much all airlines. they are certified for 850 passengers, but none carry any more than about 550 tops. and as far as snacks and drinks are concerned, if they dont come round that often or are not willing to give out what you need when you want it then you have got a pretty poor cabin attendant, and would complain to the Purser!!!

Loulouhew Posted January 9, 2013 Author Share Posted January 9, 2013 Have checked again and the flights in May to Perth are with BA so not on the A380 ....maybe it's because of the change of season . So looks like its Singapore for us ! Thanks anyway :cute: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S92LAME Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 could still be A380. you can choose which flight you want from the BA site and choose the codeshare flight operated by Qantas with A380. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LizOz Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 I flew with Singapore last year on an A380 out of Heathrow and was turning down their offers of food on a regular basis through the flight as there seemed to be so much of it! They are very attentive and couldn't do enough for us, would recommend them without question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
