Oct 21, 2022, 03:43 PMYou point about loosing passengers is a risk but from my point of view does not affect my loyalty. I have lifetime Gold with Qantas. I am retired and enjoy the benefit of using the lounge when flying economy. The cost to Qantas is a cup of coffee or a couple of glasses of red wine, the benefit I ...

Qantas, Perth Airport argue over Jo'burg flights
Apr 30, 2018, 06:00 PMQuite simple really, its called a monopoly. The beauty of a monopoly is you can do what you want to maximise you profit. Common sense does not come into it.
