    I've felt the sting of the QFF Loyalty Middle Finger

    Re: I've (haven't) felt the sting of the QFF Loyalty Middle Finger Yes, I guess it can be the approach or the staff that respond. But, having been cut loose by QF I can say its very liberating. Better service and products and lower prices. QF has a bit of a stranglehold on domestic travel...

    I've felt the sting of the QFF Loyalty Middle Finger

    Yes, it a one way street with QF. They trade on the Aussie mate image but don't deliver. Add to that an expensive and generally inferior product (Pacific business class cabins etc) its no wonder most Australians spend their own money on another carrier. Thank goodness for John B shaking up...

    Qantas ripoff pricing.........."fleecing the flock" discounts overseas but not in Oz

    Re: Qantas ripoff pricing.........."fleecing the flock" discounts overseas but not in Its really interesting to note the tone of replies to my thoughts on QF pricing and the type of flyer.............generally supportive of QF's right to discriminatory pricing and high mile flyers......I guess...

    Qantas ripoff pricing.........."fleecing the flock" discounts overseas but not in Oz

    I'm just planning a few o/seas trips.............QF is just not competitive but its worse, if you buy QF tickets overseas, they charge less than in Australia. Is that fleecing the flock? This approach is a bit hard to wear when QF pushes "nationalism" so hard in its advertising. Combine this...

    Is QF Uncompetitive ?

The Chinese Govt made them cut surcharges out of HK but the Austn Govt/ACCC has done nothing. (The power of VIP...

    Is QF Uncompetitive ?

    Yes, a crew can make all the difference. The fundamental problem is price and product. Too expensive, product not as good. Add that QF now has very limited destinations as QF, they are marginalised. QF has given up on the business market except for a couple of routes. The Pacific, where they are...

    Is QF Uncompetitive ?

    And what about the huge rebates QF offer to the big corporate accounts and squeeze the small guys with high fares.................QF does not deserve protected species status, lets have some real competition.

    Is QF Uncompetitive ?

    Lets also recognise the faults of QF management over many years. QF have an uncompetitive international fleet. Old noisy 747 expensive to operate. 380's totally unsuited to most routes, and worth nothing second hand, get ready for the billion dollar right down, and NO 777, the best aircraft in...

    Is QF Uncompetitive ?

    QF is totally uncompetitive, with an inferior product. Best deal to USA is Delta or Virgin, bestter aircraft, much better terminal in the West coast and far better pricing. QF have also lost me on domestic routes in Australia. In different crews and expensive fares. Also absolutely obsessed with...
