...two first class pax, traveling with Qantas, delay flight due to lack of XL 1st Class PJs and subsequently refuse to fly. You can't make this stuff up:

The PJs aren't that good either!!
Such diva behaviour - good on the captain telling everyone else on board

Interesting. With only the mildest application of spin, and the pyjamaly challenged chap keeping his mouth zipped, the story could be
"X and Y humiliated by inefficient Qantas...forced to leave aircraft...mocking laughter of heartless crew ringing in their ears.....saved up for years for dream flight....."
which could run and run for years on the web.
Where were you, Max Clifford, when these poor folk needed your help ):

Mmmm. I might try that when they run out of my PE (for which of course I have spent mega bucks)meal choice next time.
Trouble is though that we some way across the atlantic by then.

Perhaps the pilot will turn back

Oh that is just so funny, doesn't say if they were Ozzies or Americians but I can guess. God how I wish that was the biggest worry I had in this world - sad sods. I bet they tried to claim the fare back on their insurance as well.

You just need to look at the BAEC forum on Flyertalk to see them all come out the woodwork.

Those who shout loudest, usually aren't paying for their own ticket, those who have a hissy fit, usually on public purse funded civil service bought seats...
I suspect the former in this case, no skin off their nose missing the flight and delaying everyone else, when someone else paying...

I wonder if you are referring to the Queen's Messengers who think that the sun shines out of their rectums. They are not a popular lot by all acounts.
