It is unclear what the expansion of Jetstar means for the future of Qantas's other Asia-focused budget operation, Australian Airlines.
Australian was a convenient little diversion and a "dry run" by Dixon to see how the troops were going to respond (it seems that money isn't a problem when it comes to waging war against the enemy - the staff!).
I am afraid that we are at very serious x-road for QF mainline staff, and that unless we embark on some serious, outright confrontation with Dixon we're about to be scuttled.
This cancer has eaten well into QANTAS.
Jet* has to be stopped NOW from taking ANY international flying.
End of story (or end of QANTAS, as a real airline).
