QANTAS Pricing

[alien]

Hi All,

Just received the latest QANTAS Red email stating:

These specials are valid for travel from Saturday 01 November 2003 until Thursday 18 December 2003.

Brisbane to Sydney from $65

So I clicke don the link to have a look and found that the prices are different for a diferent period being:

01/11/03 19/12/03 13/01/04
18/12/03 12/01/04 30/09/04

One way prices from:

Brisbane $99 $99 $65


As you can see the dates/prices do not coincide with what was in the email.

Am i missing something here????

The two I got list several different fares, along the lines of:

AAA from $100
BBB from $200

Valid for travel from 01/11/03 until 18/12/03

AAA from $150

Valid for travel from 19/12/03 until 12/04/04

And so on.

Are you sure you are reading the email correctly, and applying the validity dates to the fares above it (rather than the fares below it).

After re reading the email it was unclear to me where the prices and dates take effect. The email doesnt define them clearly enough. I wonder how many other people have made this error.
