Really ?

Olympics being forced down my throat by the airline now ..... Qantas trying to become like Virgin used to be. If Virgin still did that kind of announcement regularly I wouldn't be their client today.

Not every Australian likes sport, and so that sort of announcement just sounds tacky and contrived.

Sorry.

Thumbs down

Qantas is an official partner of the Australian Olympic team. Lauren Jackson is a Qantas Ambassador (whatever the heck that means). I don't think it's particularly over the top for that announcement being made on a flight to London when the athlete's parents are on board.

Maybe this has something to do with their results.

Certainly didn't do Ansett any good being the official Olympic partner. Maybe history is about to repeat itself?

Contrived?..... I very much doubt Qantas knew about who the flag carrier would be before the rest of Australia did.
