Re: Share holder benefits
Have to agree with you there Realist! We actually managed to book four flights through Ansett at Christmas time a few years ago - 11 months in advance. You guessed it - Ansett went bust three months before we were due to travel!
With Qantas now, and partner has amassed 200K+ points - could fly ANYWHERE in the world Business class but the flights are never available when it comes time to book And then, if you do get a 'free flight' to say Melbourne, even with FF you still have to pay the taxes - which sometimes add up to as much as a cheapie ticket!
I see they also have redemption for goods - but you still have to pay something for them! Waste of time...
