As a result of the increase in freight but decrease in available aircraft, some freight transport costs have increased by 20 to 30% per kilogram. Qantas has a robust freight network and infrastructure so I would be curious to see what the current revenue dollars are from their freight division.
Last weeks dial in they gave the impression freight was supporting the business well and demand was increasing, shortly after that a LWOP email followed for 767 and 321 type rated Capt and FOs. Seems they need to get those express freighters up and running now with their 321P2F aircraft to keep up.
