Do you understand how a free market works? There is no such thing as "charging more than necessary". If people are willing to pay, you charge as much as you possibly can. Qantas is in the business of maximising profit, not providing a charity service. Ultimately the only way that Qantas was able to charge high prices was because people were willing to pay those prices.
