Qantas published a first class mistake fare between Sydney and Los Angeles. The airline isn’t honoring it, but is offering an alternative.

    Any business should always honor a pricing mistake. Qantas made $2,470,000,000 in profit last year. A loss of $5,000-$10,000 won’t hurt them at all. And it shows good will to the people that fly them.

        $2.47B was profit before tax in 2023 from one of their press releases.

        The $5-10K is a revenue number.

            Re-read what I wrote. They made $2.47B in profit so a loss of $5K-$10K in revenue won’t hurt them. I don’t know what their overhead and profit margin is so I don’t know how much that would impact their profit, but obviously, not even noticeable.
