Script for displaying Qantas Booking Flight Options Detail

Jumped onto this - like it very much! Nice stuff.

If I get the gist of it, it's basically showing information that is either only visible after opening a fare option, or hidden behind the code on the page, upfront without needing to click anything or do any acrobatics with the code. (The only exception is the currency conversion, which I assume just needs a live fetch and calculation in the background)

Looks fantastic... until Qantas decide to fundamentally change the structure of their engine, of course. 🙃

Yeah, it's a bit fiddly!
  • Within Chrome, click the extensions icon at the top right - the jigsaw puzzle piece.
  • Click Tampermonkey, then Dashboard
  • Go to Qantas SC display and click "Install this script"
That should do it! It will be activated automatically the next time you load the Qantas booking page.

To update the script in future if I make any improvements, repeat these steps but instead of creating a new script, click on "Qantas SC display" in the list. You can then clear the code in the editor and copy/paste from Pastebin again.

Let me know if you have any trouble with these steps.

Thankyou! I also had to 'allow user scripts' in the manage area.

The info used to be static under a realised web page and could be easily extracted. However later versions would destroy this underlying information before completing the page load. I could see its fleeting existence using a web developer's console. I have not delved into this new script as yet but am impressed with the results.
