(Ducks for cover and runs!!)
Apolgies if I have stepped on any toes.
I will refrain from future comment until I suck it and see myself.
All my info, apart from personal contact with DJ staff is from SLF.

You are correct re the booking system - it is extremely cumbersome, and now QF fares are often cheaper, particularly over the lower volume DJ routes, so with 5% commission, 4.3% overide after the revenue is flown and 1.5% profit share from the franchisor, well - what is the logical commercial decision?
One must also take into account the amount of time required to process a DJ booking and the inability to go back and modify the booking later without having to call the (excellent) res staff.
Great for groups, terrible for individual bookings.
Best all

Funny how a thread can stray. Can anyone actually answer the first question posed ... which was whether Virgin Blue and REX had signed an interline agreement? REX staff are none the wiser.
