sounds like we are back to where we were in another post

it isn't a breach, if the tickets were booked SEPARATELY than it would be as though Virgin Australia would have no idea about the connections, they are not liable for the passangers not making the connections if they were not in the same booking referance, and it is NOT a breach (yet again) as we all know that flight schedules due change, and it says so in the conditions of the contract (even you cant deny that)

They even offered to have the passengers fly the previous day, yeah it would mean that they would have to buy an extra night in a hotel, but due to the fact that they booked the domestic flights seperately from the Virgin Australia flights than the airline does not see them as connected, thus therefor do not require to pay for a hotel room or anything since they did what it was said in the contract (getting them to their final destination-according to the contract)

that case you keep refereing to has been changed/editted and is not very applicable in todays practice, as the industry has gone through drastic change and new laws have been in place to protect everyone

either way the passenger agreed to the terms and conditions by accepting the contract by purchusing the tickets, it is the passengers responsibility to read what it says
