Everyone Forgets

That staff travel operates on a "space available"basis.
This means that staff get to avail themselves of a seat that would otherwise have gone unsold.(empty)
Staff travel also makes a profit for the company even after paying FBT.
With the advent of (domestic)bases the use of stafftravel to get to work has also declined.
Many airlines have FOCs.... QF don't.
