Red Roo, a first class fail. Fail to correct this problem and fail to correct the root cause.

Would QANTAS also pay for prepaid accommodation etc that is lost due to arriving the next day, I wonder if travel insurance would pay if they find out you could have flown but refused? Also people don't always have a chance to allow extra days in trips, if you have five stopovers in a trip do you allows 5 days doing nothing? QANTAS need to think about this but instead we get told overselling is needed to increase profits.I think as pax become more aware of this, there is less chance of people accepting the downgrade. Funny thing is, if they had waited and travelled the next day QF would have had to pay for accom, meals transfers in LAX etc for the pax which was s true cost, but the pax flew and QF has made more money
Personally I think it's great that Qantas now value an upgrade from economy to business on this flight at $1250.
Where do I pay?
The issue is you'd have to pay full economy in the first place. You know: that fare that no-one in their right mind purchases, but which QF seem to think is the correct refund point.
After 123 pages, I still fail to understand why QF chose SGs to target. Were they *really* the lowest status J pax commencing in LAX?

It seems that you are dead right. Perhaps a petition on change.org ?Well I for one find the compensation woefully inadequate for a problem that was caused by QF not the passenger.
This should be corrected.QF isn't going to do it.
So I have emailed Federal Politicians re having a legislated compensation.I urge others to also do so.
No, I doubt they were and I don't think their status was correctly considered in the algorithm for downgrading them.
I'd guess it takes into consideration multiple factors including Fare Class ( they were on I), checked in online, ticket purchased via QF or a TA. I think it's rather intriguing that the only publicly available refund table refers to TA's.
IIRC status is generally not considered, the sequence number is the magical number.

So this is how QF is getting back into the black?
Pocketing money on downgrades and fuel fines?
It is according to the Whingepool thread linked by MEL_Traveller way back hundreds of posts ago.
Well they're trying very hard to give everyone that impression. The PR department must have been enhanced and simplified !No, not really
