to quote from previous post:
"Regarding Isa, DJ pulled out last time because they halved QF's airfares instantly, and the punters kept flying QF"

Exactly my point.

Just goes to show people are willing to pay more for a better travelling experience. And I'm not talking about the age or rootability of the hosties, but important things like frequency and timing of flights, convenient through connectivity, reliability and on time performance, comfortable seats, a decent feed at no extra charge, practical baggage allowances also at no extra charge, in flight entertainment that is available for the entire flight not just in Australian airspace also at no extra charge and I could go on all day....

Virgin still has a long way to go to match QF in my opinion, but good on em for having a go
