Can they sue for the costs involved.

Anyone knowledgeable on consumer law in OZ? Our rellies booked a holiday in Sydney and their flights from Adelaide to Sydney with Tiger. Two hours before departure the flight was cancelled and with their two kids crying it cost them over $2,000 for alternative flights at the last minute. They "may" get back the cost of the Tiger flights.

Can they claim for consequential loss against Tiger? Surely on payment of the fare they entered into a contract with Tiger and should be able to persue a claim beyond the return of their cost of the fare for failing to complete that contract.
