Hmmm... lets see, government ownership in the country you operate in, including the lion's share of all the government contracts for say 98 years or multiple conflicting owners brought about because of a personal vendetta between two short men from Qantas group? What a leg up Virgin has had!
The irony will be when international hasn't recovered and half your workforce is gone whilst you spent time hanging **** on a tiny competitor and its staff during a particularly tough time. Keep praying for the VA failure.
Personally I hope all the share holders get wiped with their debt and a new owner turns up excluding the need for help from the tax payer. That, in my opinion, would be the best outcome.
Irony is the debt was racked up by a guy that worked for QF his whole life, left with millions in his pocket leaving 10,000 staff clinging to their jobs while competitor sinks the boot in. Heard of karma? Have another crack!
