I guess Emirates has a big advertising budget, how else can you explain the lack of any media interest.
Throws into relief what was happening not so long ago to QF, when even a technical delay was enough to generate a "troubled airline" headline.
Doesn't ring true. Newspapers massacre pretty much everyone, advertisers or not (glossy magazines are different). How many Emirates ads were there in your paper today? Much more likely explanation for the low media interest was the fact that nobody was hurt.
