I have been a member of these forums for years and find them very helpful but I think this is the first time I have ever posted a question - hoping for some advice!
My husband and I were booked on the direct flight from LAX to BNE next March, and yesterday I had an email to call Qantas to discuss our flight changes.
I am yet to call but have logged on to the website and see that QF 16 (ONLY on our day of travel, how lucky is that?) has been cancelled and they have currently rebooked us on the flight to Sydney, with a 3.5 hour layover in Sydney before flying back to Brisbane.
Now to say I am hopping mad is an understatement - flying these routes (to me) is exhausting and to add an additional 5 hours to what was (to me) a just manageable journey is unacceptable!
Questions - 1. why would they cancel QF 16? (This is just for my interest!)
2. What are my options from here? I want a DIRECT flight not the faff-about that they have now put me on. Obviously I would have booked different dates at my time of booking if I had known there was no direct flight on the date in question as I would NEVER choose a layover in Sydney.
