I strongly suspect that after some time passes changes will happen but since it's fresh right now and I get the impression that the Twitter team is pretty small then maybe not at the moment.

The problem with QF is that people have been told already they don't really care about th the fare rules, and there's no one to really hold them accountable to. I'm sure Egypt doesn't have any consumer protection bureau, and have heard Australia doesn't have a strong one.

I think it's best to expect to fly these with nothing more than date changes, especially the next few months.

I was actually looking for something at the time from DOH to TYO (had a couple of days to play with so stopover somewhere cheap-ish) but wasn't getting anything under $2500 r/t on OneWorld (DOH, AUH, CAI, and TUN fares to Asia plus an addon), so timing on this was very good. Sure it's more expensive but I've now got a second and third trip built into it. But I'm grateful now I got in earlyish and was agressive with QF getting my changes done ASAP as I knew the old fare's days were numbered.
