As I said, that is how I would advise a client, if their business was big enough to call the shots. Not much different to the situation where Qantas gave some of their regional flying to NJS, some to its own regionals and some to the original Jetstar. Maybe not to the same airports or mine sites, athough certainly if there was enough work to sustain two operators, a good idea. Keeps everyone on their best behaviour. The flip side is the client has to pay realistic money to sustain the two operators. If they just use it to drive the price below profitable levels it soon puts the weaker of the two operators out of business and defeats the entire purpose.
