Qantas Nonesense
Good on you Sunfish, well said.
Basically Qantas stinks because they are a lazy outfit that tries to avoid competition through the political process.
And they have had another win, temporarily I might add.
They are also hypocrites, devise QF mark 11 to chuck it at Virgin domestically but the moment they sniff any competition internationally, they go into 'why should we cop that ' mode and go squealing off to the mob in Canberra.
Bloody shame on you Qantas, you've lost the plot entirely.
P.S. Sunfish, one correction, you say they are only responsible to their shareholders - there are others,
1. the regulators (governments here and o/s)
2. more importantly, the consumers and their customers who may continue to desert them in droves if they keep up the anti-competitive behaviour.
