Hi

HAs anyone else noticed the astonishing price hike in premium economy that has happened this year on Qantas?
Fares in July from Syd to LHR via SNG or PER at over $6000 compared with $4k last year - 50% increase in 1 year.
These fares are in business class territory and exorbitant when you can get premium on Singapore for under $4k.
Any ideas why?

wow, you can usually get real business for under 6k on plenty of reputable carriers, what a rip off.

July is school holidays, which spikes fares pretty high.

However, if they are selling the seats at that price, then that is what they should do.

Australian here living in London. Stockholm to Melbourne on Qatar business class flown this month was $3500AUD return. Add on my London to Stockholm return flight for $150 and I was laughing!

I think you are confusing customers with shareholders.
