Seems more like a big price hike on some JQ fares. e.g. the JQ Starclass fare which I purchased a couple of months ago at $1299 was a fare including FF miles and refundability etc. The new Business fare is $1299 but isn't refundable and doesn't earn miles. To get the same benefits now costs $1499 or a 15% price hike
On SYD-MEL , I could get JetFlex fares for generally $269 or $299 if busy. Checking now, the Max fare is now $339 , so a 13 to 26% price hike.
I don't care so much about FF miles, more the refundability and $200 each way extra for refundability is too steep on a HNL-SYD imo
