Two posts caught my eye. The one about QF not making any money from economy pax and focussing instead on Business class.

The one about VB pax being "Barefoot Yobs".

I respectfully suggest that if QF really believes this then its days are numbered.

It is very, very, unwise in a business to cross subsidise different products. What happens when the price differential between Business and economy gets too great and Business pax switch?

If I was ever working again for an airline and heard staff calling pax "Self Loading Frieght" or "barefoot yobs". They would be fired on the spot.

The SLF and barefoot yobs pay your miserable salaries and don't forget it.
