Qantas Holidays online booking in Full Economy?

[v8Statesman]

Just playing around with Bookings - Holidays - Home Page and I noticed that in the Condidtions it states "Classed as economy fare for Status Credit Earn." Total price PER-BNE-ADL-PER (Not my routing choice) is Total Package Price
$878.84 (AUD) Not bad with 1 night accomadation and Full Y SC

But probably wrong. It would be a red-e-deal.

I had a look yesterday and the tix it was offering me (BNE-SYD) were Discount economy.

Perhaps discount economy fares are sold out on the dates you are trying, or the site is incorrect?

Typing this on my phone on board QF767. Will book one when I get home and see what happens.

Trying to book the tickets now and would you belive that the holiday section of the site is down . Anyone else having problems?
