The Qantas passenger was left angry by the 'disgusting' flight and the 'inedible' meal they received

A fed-up Qantas customer has complained about “inedible” food and being seated next to a leaking air conditioning vent on two separate flights.

The passenger last week shared photos of a 'soggy' breakfast, a dirty window and a leaky air vent filled with napkins on flights to Brisbane and Adelaide.

The passenger posted a photo of an 'inedible' breakfast box, consisting of a very unappealing presentation of scrambled eggs, sausage, tomato and hash brown.

Another photo showed what appeared to be potato curry.

“All I can say from my recent experience is EW,” the passenger wrote on Reddit.

'The breakfast was inedible and I'm not usually picky with food. The potatoes were okay.'

The passenger also shared a photo of an air conditioning vent, filled with napkins to prevent water from dripping on the passengers, and a sunshade splattering with what was – at best – food.

People commenting on the post were divided on the quality of the meals, with some saying they looked fine.

“I would eat the food. Doesn't look great, but tastes great. I don't expect much from the cattle class,” one person wrote.

'I've had breakfast a few times lately and it's pretty good as far as airplane food goes. it's a little salty and a little mushy, but it's totally serviceable (as a very picky eater),” wrote a second.

“That actually looks like it tastes amazing,” shared a third.

Others, however, were less impressed with the 'box of sludge'.

“Man, I probably just wouldn't bother eating,” someone said.

“Eggs and fried potatoes should not be the color beige,” a second agreed.

Others shared their own bad experiences with the national airline.

“I was sitting in my dirty chair that I paid an arm and a leg for a few nights ago. Eating my 'dinner' in a box,” one person wrote.

“Then I opened Qantas in flight magazine and saw $1,980 shoes and $45,000 watches. Their priorities are dogs***.”

“They didn't even put the food on the plane for my flight the other day. We landed in Sydney and they told us we had to trudge through about 10 gates to pick up something to take with us when we left. I didn't waste 20 minutes for a six-month-old cookie,” one person said.

A Qantas spokesperson told Daily Mail Australia: 'There are no flight details in the social media post so we have no specific information about what happened, but all our aircraft are checked between flights and at the end of the cleaned daily with disinfectant. and undergo regular thorough cleaning.

'The presentation of some of the meals is not what they normally look like, but overall we have had good feedback on the new dishes and larger portions we have recently introduced.'

The incident comes just weeks after a couple from Wellington, New Zealand, claimed they were soaked in urine for 10 hours after finding soiled children's underwear under the seats on a Qantas flight from Sydney to Bangkok in December.

They had stashed a bag of duty-free items worth $70, a neck pillow and a Qantas pillow under the front seat. But when one of them took the items out, they noticed that they were wet and there were stains on the pillow.

At first they thought the fluid was just spilled water. The couple put the items in the overhead locker and returned to their seats.

However, the man dried the neck pillow and used it during the flight. Only at the end of their journey did they notice the wet children's underwear.

“Now we know we were in urine for a 10-hour journey,” the man, who asked to remain anonymous, told the NZ Herald.

“And the travel neck pillow, well, I've been using that for the past few hours, thinking it was just a little wet from the water.”

The disgusted couple called a flight attendant who removed the underwear and said she would speak to her supervisor.

The couple said they were offered 10,000 Qantas points, which they declined and instead demanded a refund for the $3,827 flight.

Qantas initially rejected the refund request in an email sent on January 10, saying the ticket had been fully used.

The couple responded, saying it was “simply unacceptable.” Qantas is said to have subsequently issued a full refund to the couple 'as a gesture of goodwill'.

“All our international aircraft are cleaned between each flight, including vacuuming seats and disinfecting surfaces,” a Qantas statement said.

“We are investigating what happened and have raised the matter with our cleaning supplier in Bangkok, who cleaned the aircraft before departure.”
