Going B, American dont operate to oz.
Yes they do. It's a code share on QF flights which have an AA flight number in addition to QF's flight number. It is a very significant number of seats on every flight & it is income for QF even if AA don't fill the seats. AA has a very large marketing ability which has for a number of years helped QF fill six B744 services a day to LAX (the number of flights has reduced in recent times). The fact is, as far as V Oz is concerned, in a marketing sense, they are competing with AA as much as the airlines that operate their own aircraft on the route.
