If revenue.. thats a lot of extra SCs.. though what a crazy reroute!As WP - got call from HBA call centre who advised all flights have been cancelled upto March 2025. Got rebooked - a nice 4hr direct flight is now a 20hr x 3 stopover with new routing SIN-MEL-ADL-DRW....
It was Classic Rewards - operator said if it was revenue fare - I could buy SQ direct flight and QF would reimburse the difference.If revenue.. thats a lot of extra SCs.. though what a crazy reroute!
Ah, yes we will reimburse you when we get around to itI could buy SQ direct flight and QF would reimburse the difference.
Have not been offered this as a solution but I’d take it if offered.@henrus your solution?
I’ve been told take the reroute, credit or refund. At this stage I’m probably going to take the refund and book SQ direct. The difference is about $200 extra per person so it’s not a major deal but just really annoying.
That’s the excess I think… regardless I’m going to go ahead and book the SQ direct and cancel the QF for a refund. Is there a platinum email to send something, otherwise I’m out of ideas.Edit: I misread the part about getting the difference reimbursed... would your travel insurance cover the $200 difference?

QF never interested in international ex-DRW so surprised they would feel so threatened by Royal Brunei flying Brunei-Darwin.
I was living in DRW at the time and it was a great plan.There was a brief period where they tried to establish Darwin as a hub for Jetstar expansion into Asia, using DRW as a scissor-hub for A320 flights from southern capitals to several SEA destinations
