    UpgradeMe pricing and success

    The non-status pax gets more benifit than ststus pax that have lounge access, priority boarding and bagage already. From VAs point of veiw it may be cheaper to give the upgrade to status pax if bids are equal. VA plats are only paying for a more seat space and better food and bev. The thing...

    QF International 'New Economy' Trayless Meals

    Even on Business when I have preordered my meal the crew have asked what I wanted, when I say I preordered they reply that maybe I have but they haven't looked at the list.

    Downgraded from Business Class.

    I wonder if the Dallas flight flew with freight, I will give QANTAS the benefit of doubt that they offloaded it first but then again freight may be more lucrative.

    Downgraded from Business Class.

    Regardless of circumstances surrounding the downgrade. One of the main issues is, are the T&Cs fair and reasonable with regard to downgrades? The T&Cs seems very poor ,unreasonable and very one-sided in favor of QANTAS in terms of downgrade compensation.

    It seems this whole incident could have been avoided if QANTAS check in staff had asked for volunteers with compensation rather than just downgrade someone arbitrarily, I would be surprise if at least two pax wouldn't have minded an extra day in LA paid for by QANTAS with compensation.

    Downgraded from Business Class.

    This really would be a nightmare, you can feel helpless if the check-in staff don't want to help. I would expect at least $700 if they put me up in a hotel and put me on Business the next day. If bumped to Economy it should be full refund or airlines get rewarded for over booking.

    Well the Article says. "If the Knee Defending passenger refuses to obey this directive from the cabin crew they're in breach of the conditions of carriage, which opens them up actions which can include being restrained or removed from the flight, refused future travel on the airline and...

    Is AJ making Qantas a super-fit midget?

    I flew QF 64 yesterday and business class was less than 50% full and the crew said economy was worse and they said loads similar since 1st June.I think post cancelling the codeshare not profitable now.
