Upcoming Qantas website changes?

[samh004]

There's so many glitches in it now - especially if using from a mobile device.

Ironically, the reason most sites get changed these days is to make them compatible with fat fingers on a mobile/tablet device.

Which subsequently renders them awful on a conventional 22" monitor. Whatever happened to web sites responding to the user agent and screen resolution in order to give the user the best possible experience?

If so - sounds like a QF Yield management "upgrade" - not an end-user upgrade....

Not sure about that. If you could mix cabins, eg one way Y, back in PE, it would overall be higher yield I would have thought.

I think it can still be done domestically though with the similar inferface... I think it's just another design issue.

and dare I say it makes offers like they used to have such as "Buy J one way, get F the other" nigh on impossible to book online (in the older version you just picked the appropriate flights/cabins and it was easy).

Hope they fix this (and bring back that particular offer ) - but that's just about me.

It would make sense to me. Y+ on a day flight to Asia and J on the overnight return. Oh yeah, they didn't put Y+ on the 333s!!

I'd love to have that option.

Latest glitch for me is no Red E Deals showing up on any flight option I look at. Only Flex and Business. Domestic routes. Ridiculous.

 

[whatmeworry]

Perhaps we should rename this thread [-]Velocity/Virgin[/-] Qantas websites are RUBBISH.

I'd love them to bring back that option and add that option to 'delayed' bookings.
