Delta won't get much market share if they're going at $700+++USD a pop.

It is getting raw and bleeding for the airlines across the Pacific. At this moment by astonishing coincidence Qantas and V Australia have $971 return fares on sale between Sydney and Los Angeles including hundreds of dollars in various levies and taxes.

In the US the comparable deals are just under $US 600, or pretty much the same at the current exchange rate...
I don't think VOz and QF have much to worry about from Delta.....yet.
