Hopefully now with the A332s going back to QF and getting new interiors they will move across to the international arm and start right-sizing some of their markets.
Meanwhile anybody living, as you do EBT, in Perth will have given up on Qantas for good and switched to an airline that can provide a decent service from WA, without having to fly to SYD first or fly with another airline to the one you booked e.g EK.
Once I've burnt my FF miles (IF I ever manage to actually get a QF flight using them) I will never fly on QF again.
