I”m afraid that is spurious outdated comment.

And your suggestion is ???

I come here to find tips and advice (current and recent) on my current and planned trips, not what happened five years ago that obviously does not apply now. Maybe a thread for reminiscing on the bad old days…. Oh wait we have lots

You do you.

Please don’t tell others what is or is not ok to post.

So downgraded SYD MEL. And then free upgrade to J on SYD-LHR? Yes please. Where do I sign up to that!

Need to be realistic. 75% is the same as EU261 IIRC

It was MEL - BNE.

What is your suggestion for reasonable compensation for losing a minimum of $500 on this flight?

How about if the downgrade was MEL - LAX?

Nobody signs up for a downgrade.

The published QF policy of 75%. Which is the same as EU261. Or another flight before or after.
While AU sadly does not have passenger rights laws EU261 is a guide.

Where did you lose $500?

Read my original post. There was no loss of $500.

I guess my point is that if I purchase a Porsche Cayenne and the dealer delivers me a cheap Kia, should I accept his offer of compensation?

They both get you from point A to be perfectly well after all.
