Some good posts in here regarding freight. Qantas has the upper hand over VA without doubt. It certainly will be an area that the QF top tier will be exploring as to whether they can increase volume with new or expanded contracts. Now it’s not passenger uplift and it doesn’t keep all the flight crews and cabin crews employed, but if QF was able to source more freight it will at least keep the sheckles coming in, perhaps long enough to see the company through the worst of COVID. It really is times like these that a company needs to be innovative and look at areas or ideas that perhaps it hasn’t looked at in the past? VA don’t have a fallback source of income in their structure hence the fast demise of their financial viability.
