....However, if I want to change dates after the sale is over, does anybody know if I have to pay difference of fares ($40) in addition to the change fee ($33), provided I'm only re-booking onto flights with "N" availability?
Since I'm only rebooking within the same booking class, I don't see how Qantas can legitimately charge me extra $40 fare difference. Any insights?
Thanks</font>

<font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2"> The fare for your new booking may be higher than the original fare, depending on what fares are available via our Contact Centre.
You must pay any difference between the fare for your new booking a nd the original fare.
Your new booking must be for travel anywhere on the Qantas network within 12 months of the date that the original ticket was issued.

Thanks Mwenenzi!
I usually "upgrade" the fare class when I make changes, and so I wasn't aware that I need to pay the difference with original fare.</font>

Having said that though, if there is N class on the flight you want to change to then there will be O class as well, which is only about 2-3% more than O class. So the amount you have to pay won't be much (plus $33 change fee).
