Aug 23, 2023, 11:27 PMSpot on - having it sit idle means it's not earning $$ for QF. Whether that affects loads remains to be seen.

Dec 14, 2022, 09:02 AMAdd to all of the above the lack of a lounge in Cairns after VA cut it once in administration. Will be interested to see how it goes.

Airbnb’s free AirCover insurance could cost you thousands of dollars
May 14, 2022, 12:28 AMI've stayed in many Airbnb's across my various interstate and international trips, and have had a couple of cancellations which have made life difficult- the worst of which was in Montreal, which is an expensive-AF city to be in to start with.
