Katter complains to ACCC about GF flights
AAP
Federal MP Bob Katter says he's complained to the consumer watchdog about airlines "price gouging" rugby league and AFL fans for flights to this weekend's grand finals.
Mr Katter labelled the airlines "unpatriotic", saying they'd taken advantage of supporters.
"There's thousands and thousands of buyers in Perth, and there's thousands and thousands of buyers in north Queensland but there's only two, arguably three, sellers - that's not a free market," he told 6PR.
