Qantas do NO favours
Agree. Also do note that because it is seperate tickets, hence it is seperate contracts. There are no obligations on AY or QF to do anything. BUT if AY did issue both the boarding pass (AY and QF) then QF might be able to rebook you on the next flight without looking at the ticket. But it is risky stuff.
Can't you do the AY sector 1 day earlier to ensure you do get on the QF flight?
Also given it is B Class, you might be able to get some refund??
