Really? The un-Australian, Australian
I am sure it’s just a “glitch”, a “system error” or something.
But really though, how can you call yourself a great Australian company when you act so un-Australian?

Yeah I got hot with this- we had a few plans disrupted bu border closures.
They will only let you use the credit to pay for a flight of equal or grreater value than the one you cancelled, so unless there happens tobe a flight of EXACTLEY the same value, you are out of pocket.

Okay, fair enough if you just decide you don't want to travel, but if you can't travel because of a legal direction, then that's shytehouse - but sadly not unsurprising - behaviour...

In their defence, this is the Australian corporate culture. Clients/customers are seen only as profit sources. Just like staff are seen only as cost sources. Arse about thinking but it isn’t stopped by our leaders and corporate leaders are incapable of self regulation.

Nobody denies things are tough in the aviation industry but again,it is these still highly paid executives who are happy to thumb their noses at the average consumer & tell them 'that is how it is & we have done nothing wrong'.
Maybe the ACCC may just see it differently but nobody should hold their breath.
Of course they always have an excuse or a hidden condition in the fine print that gives them the upper hand in almost every situation.

This airline ticket issue is markedly different in that you are virtually being held to ransom with your choices basically being take a credit which usually involves some admin fee or rebook on another flight at a price the airline determines.

Its actually a bit different with oil companies,nobody complains when the price reduces over the usual cycle of 2 - 3 weeks however when it goes back to full retail people complain bitterly. With fuel,everybody is fully aware what the price is & whether you agree with the price or not,thats exactly what its going to cost you.

Headline should be changed to, "Qantas actually doesn't care about being Australian it's all a marketing gimic, it doesn't give a toss about its customers or staff and it's CEO business model is to bleed you of every last drop of $ the second you walk in the door."
The whole thing is hardly a revelation.

And how much does he get btw?
Isnt it interesting how he has an opinion on almost everything including the WA premier however not a word on the border restrictions in Hong Kong.He got his ass burned there with Jetstar HK & hasnt got the b...s to criticise the govt there now as he knows exactly what the outcome will be if he does.
I have been paid fully on time every month by the QF Group with a very reduced flying schedule. There is no magic pot of gold (insert lephricorn joke) post job keeper and stand downs for that to occur. While distasteful to some it is a game that has to be played to provide cashflow for the business to survive.
