The amount of 1090THB is however, according to the e-ticket itself, is a YR. In fact, the $25-75 per sector award fee has never been charged when I pay for this ticket, in keeping with what other posters in this thread have experienced.

I wrote an e-mail to QRPC for clarification. After 10+ days of no response plus one follow-up email from me stressing there is nowhere on the QR website indicating any part of the taxes and surcharges paid is non-refundable, they just replied back with this.



So, according to this email, they are pointing towards the $25-75 per sector booking fee which has never been charged in the first place. I understand that the booking fee, if imposed, would be reflected on the e-ticket but that is nowhere to be found. I know QR is having a financial issue due to the blockade but twisting their tongues and this kind of IDGAF customer service attitude is way beyond my imagination.


EDIT: According to that very link the very helpful QRPC agent kindly sent me ... it also says this

So now I don't know why on earth QR would refuse to refund the YR part to me and try to put up with this booking fee crap. I've just sent an email to them to point out the clause. Should I also give them a call or something?
Please by all means keep on trying to have QR apply their own rule and respect you as a customer, i'm curious to know the outcome ...
