Qantas 787 Business Class QF2 - a domestic international flight from Darwin to Sydney!

In January, I managed to secure a seat on the Darwin to Sydney leg of Qantas flight QF2, as the flight was originated in London and everyone that travels to Sydney would clear immigration in Sydney, QF2 from Darwin departs from the international terminal. Therefore flying on this flight gives me the unique opportunity of going through Australian immigration and board an international flight without needing a passport and without leaving the country!
What's more, 30 hours before this flight, I offered a $300 bid for an upgrade from economy class to business class. My seat was confirmed 4hrs before departure! So in this video I will provide a detailed review of Qantas Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner's Business Class product, Darwin Qantas Club and Darwin Qantas International Transit Lounge. Let's go!!

Flight QF1/QF2 is Qantas' flagship flight between Sydney and London. From March 2018 to early 2020, Qantas used its flagship aircraft A380 to operate this flight with only one stopover in Singapore. However, due to covid and international border restrictions. The service was hauled for nearly 2 years. When all Australian States and Territories except Western Australia scrapped hotel quarantine in December 2021, Qantas chose Darwin over Perth as the temporary stopover point for its Sydney to London and Melbourne to London flights.
