costs up, Jaba. QF now has local QCCA contracts which gives them the flexibility and similar cost base then LHR or AKL. BKK is something else more like slave wages( i think there are only a 100 or so left). lets not forget that running the bases, including more managers, paying for training overseas, relocation expenses, flying F/A's to SYD for training and so on costs a bundle. would be interesting to do a detailed cost benefit analyses.
