QF early-2017 award availability - restricted to elite status holders?

Yes, this is what a Qantas employee suggested. More seats available for higher status members.

Excellent decision by Alan Joyce to ground Qantas. It forced the unions hand and they have backed down. Qantas cannot compete with so many other international airlines if our unions are going to get away with demanding extortionate wages not in line with the airline's competitors.
