My A220 and 737 flights between MEL and CBR on 23 and 24 June have both been swapped to 717. Flight number for the first flight is still A1276 despite not being on an A220.

Dispute submitted, fingers now crossed.

Looked closer and you may be right, will give it a try tomorrow.

Unfortunately paid with a credit card over 120 days ago (over 200 days ago in fact), no chance Visa is going to reverse that, 120 days is their limit.

They won't miss out entirely, they will get paid eventually either as priority creditors in any liquidation/DOCA or otherwise under the Government's Fair Entitlements Guarantee.

Wish they had announced that before I'd booked replacement QF flights home. Rang in transit from BNE to see if I could sort out a refund. Agent didn't seem to know what a Bonza was so probably not information that had filtered down to the call centre at the time. Trying again.

Stuck in ROK. Fortunately got on QF flight home via BNE. Get to tick off Dash 8 and A220 from my bingo card.

A resolution on a DOCA needs to be passed by 50% by number of unsecured creditors and 50% by value of unsecured creditors, so if ATO is owed $100 and there are 50 unsecured creditors owed $50 each, you need at least 26 votes in favour representing $75.01 or more.

The ATO does have some statutory powers, but none of these give the ATO priority over other unsecured creditors of the company. In this regard, if an unfair preference payment has been made to the ATO, the Court can order the ATO to pay that back to a liquidator just like any other unsecured...

Litigation/insolvency lawyer here. Can confirm that's correct. No, the ATO is an unsecured creditor and stands at the back of the queue ranking equally with all other unsecured creditors, including customer refunds. Priority creditors first (including liquidators costs and employee...

Interesting that MEL-CBR will be both QantasLink A220s and Mainline 737s in June rather than all Qantaslink.

Looks like X4B is in SYD too. Looking forward to the reveal and to the schedule being updated (hoping to book my MEL-CBR jaunt during double status credits).

Any speculation on when A220 flights will be available to book. Going MEL-CBR (which is where I understand they'll be servicing first) in late June and only seeing 737s then. Assuming the A220s come on line, would that be additional flights or would they swap out the 737s?

Any guesses on what Blanc de Blancs 2016 – WTF! Deal #45250 - Sparkling | Vinomofo Australia might be?

QF9 on 22/11/22 MEL-PER Discount Y —> J Success at T-29 (Lowly Bronze) 2 from 2 for upgrade requests. Hoping they don't run out of Champagne pre-takeoff like last month. Amusingly, I went to swipe type "Discount" on my phone and a certain F word came up instead. I was tempted to leave it as...

Arrived back in Melbourne. The check in agent in Perth was cool and happy to short check the bags to MEL. I explained why and he understood and took us off the MEL-CBR leg so that should not be delayed (unlike the PER-MEL leg which was delayed by 80 minutes by an engineering issue, not fun when...

QF9 from MEL to PER. Had the Braised Lamb which was nice. They ran out of Champagne before takeoff, very unimpressed and, as a Champagne fan, not happy. Nearly 1 hour wait for baggage too. Dessert was a Pat's n Sticks ice cream sandwich.

QF9 on 20/10/22 MEL-PER Flex Y —> J Success at T-28 (Lowly Bronze) First time requesting an upgrade so I'm 1 from 1. Looking forward to it. Probably the best value I've had from 10,900 QF points.

Thanks John, looks like I'm in with a chance of at least PE. Will report in the other thread.

Could someone take a look at QF9 from MEL-PER (i.e. not carrying on to LHR) on 20 Oct 22? Lowly Bronze hoping to points upgrade from flex economy to either of business or PE, what are my chances?
