Pretty sad state of affairs really.ANZ deserves a bit of flack over what happend and they should have cut a deal with SQ but it has all gone overboard.I wonder who will be blamed as QF runs into trouble and I believe as ANmk 11 comes out of the rubble it is going to pose a dreadfull threat to them.Sometimes a company can appear too successful and the politics will change the tide and facilitation of events.And we are at that point.If VB were to take up the running on all trunk routes it would be with ahuge amount of AN staff and so existing infrastucture would be overrun by outsiders as it were and this would cause problems in check and training systems all down the line.ANmk11 I think will survive with all trunk routes,terminals and a large amount of infrastucture intact that will allow such growth as is seen as profitable but with huge redundancies at least initially.Lets lay off the Kiwis,they were unsuspecting casualties themselves albeit very silly not to cut the deal.
