What is it with me and MX'd 767s? First my YYZ-YUL AC 767 was swapped with a 320 and now my QF 767 is swapped for a 738.

Seat and cabin are similar to AC's domestic J class 319/320 seats.

Outstanding service today from our friendly FA. PDB with real glass, not the plastic glass most NA airlines use for PDBs.

Curtain drawn immediately after take-off although there is no cabin dividing wall but rather a dopey curtain like AC and DL MDs.

Beverage and lunch service from the cart.

Choice of three light mains today... cod, barramundi or duck salad.

I went with tasty duck salad and couscous.

The lemon merengue tart was excellent.

Not sure if Virgin's new J class domestic service was the catalyst but this was very nice J class domestic service for a little more than an hour flight. Much better than anything that any NA carrier provides on a similar route.
