So why wouldn't they have left? It's money rusting at the moment.

I think the aircraft owners regardless of what they think they've done with concrete blocks is now bound by the administrators, they call the shots. Once they are satisfied there is no future the equipment owners can take their gear and depart.

Administrator or Airport making sure they don’t leave until all monies paid, the administrator will need to pay or do a deal before they get released. Wonder if we’ll seeing another coughpit Casual on YouTube of the next flight of Bonza liveried planes.

US can be hit and miss, I do leave a tip sometimes in the bathroom and get extra goodies left for me. I haven’t tried the leaving it under a pillow but may do if service is ok. Leaving coins unless you’re checking out is a waste of time as they don’t get taken. If I’m sitting at a bar on a...

I'm appless so would have never been able to buy a ticket, maybe I wasn't this target customer hence not needing my money.

QF have a Bonza passenger help team standing by......

Seat selection may as well be dropped as won’t be long before you can only select middle row seats. But hey you can choose the row.

No J awards because its full already with paying passengers.

200 passengers being spread around to other flights which are likely to already be above 70% full. QF will even book you in your class of travel on AA if you paid for a ticket. When on a reward they will do their best but if there isn’t enough seats to go around the non paying passenger is down...

You were alright when you ticked the form weren’t you. If your Covid negative then that’s the important check. Nobody is checking the airport. I flew back about 10 days ago.

Business is the real deal, grab that if you can. As others have said, holiday season will limit what you get.

I've sat in the wrong seat, I'm sure people do it all the time. If you don't fly much you wouldn't know or pay attention.

Sorry, was more meaning the aircraft owners will lose a few months, others more, but everyone will move on with the hardest hit likely the staff.

Doesn’t mean he didn’t have a big ego wanting to own an airline. Mick OLeary from Ryanair also comes to mind.

There are some big egos in the airline ownership/management world. Anyone remember Frank Lorenzo, Freddie Laker,Richard Branson ...... Tim Jordon the list goes on to 2024

777 will likely lose a few months lease payments, they'll recover the aircraft and move on. One thing I've learnt over the years in transport, you can't cost cut your way into profit. With apologies to Gordon Bethune of Continental Airlines, you can make a pizza so cheap no one wants to eat it...

Except the ATO has some statutory powers, wonder if Bonza are making preferential payments to anyone.......

Yes very rough turbulence to LAX, around 6 specialists flown in to go over the plane in detail. Be pleased of the change as QF have done it to protect their safety and yours.

Tax office gets first go at what ever money is available.

Suggest to all that people hold off making any further bookings with Bonza. The rumour mill is running hot that maybe only days to go before financiers have had enough. At least Virgin or QF are preparing staff ready to offer cheap rescue flights to stranded passengers.
