Future at Qantas
Hi everyone, just wondering if any of you can shed some light on a few queries of mine.
1. What's the current situation with ETOPS approval for the SCL and JNB services?
2. What aircraft will replace these services if CASA does or doesn't play ball?
3. What are Qantas' options in regards to this ETOPS issue? I would certainly hope that Qantas won't be plagued by quad jets on these routes forever (at the mercy of CASA).
4. I also read somewhere that the A380 can't operate the south polar routes, is that true and if so, can it be rectified?
5. Is the JNB service from PER still on the cards? And if so, will that be a replacement for the SYD-JNB service?
6. What will happen to PER-LHR and any other future European destinations ex PER once Project Sunrise takes off (pun intended)?
7. Can the A330 operate the PER-JNB route with current ETOPS?
8. Feel free to discuss any future fleet developments at Qantas. The more discussion the better!
Thank you in advance.
