Cpt Cloudbuster: you sure it'll be under JQ callsigns?

Seems kinda pointless: QF jets in QF livery flown by QF drivers with QF cabin crew.

The whole reason is the Japanese punters are very adverse to flying JQ due to the fact it's a low cost carrier which they deem to be a vastly inferior product. JQ's been trying desperately to promote the fact that they are a QF Group Airline and therefore every bit as good as QF Mainline. It's all been to no avail though as the JTB is regularly putting Japanese tourists from all over the country on trains to NRT to fly QF rather than "subject" them to JQ.

Looks as though the full-strength QF'll be heading back to these two ports but this remains to be confirmed. Keep in mind QF's 5 year plan that changes every 5 days....
