New fare structure for Qantas domestic
Qantas has just revealed details of a new domestic fare structure, saying the change provides customers with "greater simplicity, flexibility and further Qantas Frequent Flyer benefits".
The previous four economy fare families have been reduced to three and now include Red eDeal, Flexi Saver and Fully Flexible fares - all with included meals or refreshment, inflight entertainment (except on QantasLink services) and a checked baggage allowance of one piece of luggage up to 23 kg.
Qantas Frequent Flyer ceo Simon Hickey also detailed changes to the frequent flyer arrangements, with all QF domestic fares - including Red eDeals - becoming eligible for Domestic Flight Upgrade Awards to business class using Qantas Frequent Flyer points where available.
"In addition all flexible domestic fares will be classed as 'Economy' resulting in improved Status credit earn and upgrade rates for members on more fares," he said.
QF Group Executive Commercial Rob Gurney said the new fare structure would be valid for tickets booked from Thu 07 Jul.
"Qantas remains committed to ensuring it is best for business and accordingly we are very pleased to be making these changes to strengthen our domestic and regional offering," he said.
