I think it's gunna cost AJ a little more than he and the board thought:


-- Qantas had offered customers refunds, the opportunity to rebook flights and compensation for expenses incurred by certain travellers. The airline was dealing with other claims on a case by case basis.

ACCC chairman Rod Sims said while that addressed some of the commission’s concerns, it didn’t go far enough.

‘‘These circumstances are extraordinary and there have been a huge number of passengers significantly affected,’’ Mr Sims said. ‘‘It is squarely in the airline’s camp to make good.

‘‘If you have incurred additional expenses as a result of the grounding, the ACCC is of the view that Qantas should compensate you for all your reasonable losses.’’ ---

That sounds a lot more expensive than the Qantas proposal to me

(sorry, don't know how to insert quote - and just plain too damn lazy to look it up right know - will do better!)
