    Why do flights get cancelled so far in advance?

    Sorry if this has been covered before, but I'd be interested in an article/podcast episode explaining why flights get cancelled so far in advance.

    Wrong ticket class?

    To be honest I don't remember if it was "E" fare PremEco.

    Qantas cancellation/call centre advice please

    Is there staff at the airports these days that can do any of this? I thought they simply gave you a phone number to call?

    Qantas app trips not syncing

    I just checked and I could login to my account from the app. Its a bit of a flakey app that so not surprised you're having issues.

    How long did Qantas take to process your refund for cancelled flights?

    I ended up calling the main phone line (ie the long wait one) and told them I needed the points I was owed so I could make another booking. They did the points refund straight away. Luckily for me, it was just points I was waiting on, and not money though.
