Emirates 'new' 777 Review

Overall flying Emirates Business Class is always an enjoyable and comfortable experience. The airline has touted the refreshed cabin as a “new product” and that was what this review was about - the new product. Contrary to expectations, Emirates chose the conservative approach, basically installing an updated version of the A380 Business Class seat on its 777s so whilst it’s a wonderful experience it is not a new experience.

Flying with Young Kids: A Qantas vs. Virgin Australia Showdown

So, you've decided to take the plunge and fly with your toddler. First off, I salute your bravery! My best advice? Don't do it! But let's be real—that's hardly practical so to help you make a decision when flying regionally or short haul in Australia I took my newly turned 3 year old on a 2.5 hour flight with QantasLink and Virgin Australia.
