Qantas remains pretty generous on their mid leg flights across the Tasman in Economy. Id' guess it's the partnership with EK that forces them to up their own game a bit given that the aircraft is just soooo much worse than the A380 which Emirates is using (or the 787-900s that LAN has on the same route). We were offered 3 different choices, two hot and one cold salad and I went for the beef ragout with pasta and beans. The beef was delicious but unfortunately such a tiny portion that you could have easily eaten it in one single bite. And both the beans and pasta of course tasted like water, as per usual. Quite decent wines though as well so can't really complain in the back of the bus.

I had a few miniature bottles of their quite nice Aussie red :-)

Alright, 3 choices in Eco on a 3 hour flight is pretty generous these days!
