  • Govt to subsidise domestic flights by Qantas, Virgin

  • Qantas not offering a refund?

    Apr 28, 2020, 10:15 PM

    Had a business RWT with Qantas commencing 24th June. Contacted Qantas, they told me it wouldn't happen and said a refund would be provided. Money is now back in the bank, no problems encounted. The staff were amazing and co-operative, and this is why I have been a Plat for 18 years.
