Whatever they're smoking, I'll have some!
Could work as long as they keep their costs under control. Remember they already have all office positions, so no duplication, just few more staff. Not like they are starting a whole new airline. Similar in a way to Jetstar. Am sure they use a lot of qantas back office, maybe even engineering ?
The "parsley" on qantas is very VERY expensive & do you necessarily want that for a 1 hour flight ?
