I am amazed that QF still operates such an old fleet. Outdated elderly B737s and A330, the A380 being a much needed capacity solution. The recent Airbus A321/350 orders being so late mean a few years more with the old uneconomic types. It will also take time to completely train the QF 737 crews to Airbus too.
Sad to read.
AJs mate,Willie Walsh late of BA, had a similar bad press when recovering his Company from near bankruptcy some years ago. But at least he had the foresight to order A320/A321/A350 and 787- 9/10 and 777-300. Many are now in operation and new hulls being delivered monthly. Ditto the A380, all 12 being returned to service within about six months of C19 ending.
