A mum who accused Qantas of giving A Current Affair host Allison Langdon special treatment has launched another bizarre rant about that fateful flight to Fiji.
Mother-of-five Courtney Babic first claimed Langdon was given free champagne on the trip from Sydney to Fiji while other passengers were denied the same privileges.
She also alleged the TV presenter’s children Mack, seven, and Scout, four, were also allowed to use the bathrooms in first class, unlike other passengers.
After her TikTok went viral, questions were raised when paparazzi photos emerged showing Langdon and her family checking in at the business class desk.
This seemed to debunk Ms Babic’s claim that Langdon had flown economy but received ‘special treatment’ just because she was a celebrity passenger.
Now Ms Babic has recorded another video from her Fiji hotel room – this time revealing the real reason why her encounter Langdon irked her so much.
She said she didn’t care about not getting free booze, but instead took issue with Langdon’s children allegedly getting better activities on the plane.
She also expressed bizarre fears about Qantas staff ‘spitting’ in her food on her return flight to Sydney after she slammed the airline on TikTok.
‘All the trolls on the internet were saying you’re just upset you didn’t get champagne or alcohol,’ she said as she addressed the backlash to her original video.

‘First of all, dude, I didn’t ask for any wine on the flight because we were on a morning flight!’
‘Kyle and Jackie O said being famous that’s just one of the perks, you get extra stuff in life and people obviously treat you better,’ she continued.
Ms Babic went on to claim other children were told they couldn’t have the same activities which had been allegedly given to Langdon’s son and daughter.
‘I think what the problem was is that other kids were around and they were not getting the same children’s activities – they were getting extra stuff, her kids, in front of other children that were asking for things and being denied,’ she alleged.
‘Children don’t know when someone’s famous, they don’t know that, and I think if Qantas is going to be doing that and treating certain people better, then maybe they should do it in a more, I guess, quiet manner.’
With a laugh, she added of the controversy: ‘I’ll probably get my food spat in on the way back now!’
After her first video went viral last week, Qantas rubbished the TikToker’s claims, bluntly stating it was ‘ridiculous to suggest Allison was given any special treatment’.
‘Any extras she was offered would be the same as we provide other similar frequent flyers whey they travel with us,’ an airline spokesperson added.
‘Our crew often say how nice Allison is to deal with and never wants a fuss.’

Langdon’s representatives declined to comment when contacted by Daily Mail Australia.
Despite Qantas’ response and photographs showing Langdon checking in at the airline’s business class counter, Ms Babic has continued to stand by her claims.
The former primary school teacher-turned-influencer also insisted Langdon’s alleged special treatment from cabin crew didn’t bother her – despite publishing a series of lengthy videos on the topic.
Her remark prompted a woman claiming to be a former Qantas customer service manger to question her claims.
‘I have never experienced no alcohol being served on an international flight,’ she wrote. ‘Sometimes there are shortages out of more isolated or smaller countries.’
Ms Babic hit back at people who claimed she had not got her facts straight by insisting it was possible for Langdon to have used the business class check-in but still have been sat in economy.
‘I wasn’t the only one who witnessed it,’ Ms Babic hit back at one critic. ‘You think you can’t get priority boarding in an economy seat? You clearly know nothing.’
She mocked another commenter, telling them ‘you clearly have never been in the FC (First Class) lounge’, and told another keyboard warrior to ‘get a life’.
It is possible for some Qantas Frequent Flyer members to take advantage of first class boarding and lounge access while still flying economy.

Ms Babic’s original two-and-a-half-minute rant did not refer to Langdon by her full name, only her first name.
‘There was a famous person from 60 Minutes on the plane, I think her name is Allison. She didn’t get a first class seat, she got an economy seat,’ Ms Babic said.
‘We flew Qantas. They were turning people down when they were asking for wine and that’s fine. I didn’t ask but I overheard a lot of people being rejected.
‘But then they were offering her wine and handing it out in front of everyone else. So the people who were being declined alcohol had to sit and watch this famous lady be served alcohol when they bought the same ticket for the same price.
‘The staff were treating her better than everyone else. It’s just not fair. Why are these famous people getting treated better in front of you when you’ve both paid the same amount of money?
‘If you’re going to give someone special treatment just because you think they’re famous, I think that’s wrong. I don’t understand what’s going on with service these days.’
