Bait and switch: should you be compensated for an inferior seat?

Chennai to Darwin on Sri Lankan and Jetstar
Jan 24, 2022, 06:36 PMI suspect their website just sucks.If you don’t want to collect your bags in Singapore, book the flights on one ticket (doesn’t have to be a codeshare).You can indeed buy that ticket with a Sri Lankan airlines code at a third party, though it is cheaper if you buy it on one ticket wit...
