The remaining confidence people had in them surely must be eroding at a rapid rate. It's not just about the airfare, it's about the hotels, cars, tickets and stuff that people bought too. All the stuff that makes a holiday. If you can't afford to repurchase seats on Qantas, Jetstar or Virgin (and luckily there seem to be plenty out there, at quite affordable levels too), then you are out of luck. Kids in QLD are currently on school holidays too, so there is gonna be some panic out there with people who are literally economically stranded, already at their destination. Not good. What else can you say.
