Which first and business class does Joe Aston rate?
Aston wrote the definitive book on Qantas’ fall from grace. Then he flew Qantas first class to London. From the February 28 edition of Highflyer magazine.
During the publicity circuit for The Chairman’s Lounge, I was often asked, “Who do you fly?” Implicit in this question is the erroneous assumption that I don’t fly Qantas. In fact, I fly them exceedingly often.
I’ve been a Platinum One member of Qantas’ Frequent Flyer program for nine consecutive years (albeit including the three pandemic years when everyone’s status tier was automatically extended).
