The lady on the phone I was dealing with was super helpful, probably the best customer service agent I have ever dealt with from an airline, and what ended up happening was they agreed to honour the original fair because they had quoted it to me this morning.

So with the new recruiting, I got a DONE5 ex-MPM for a final cost of $5,400AUD.

Taught me a lesson in ticket first, change later. But those dates really wouldn't have worked, specifically for the first flight.

I gave them my credit card details but I haven't yet been charged. Still fingers crossed until an eticket arrives in my inbox.
