1. Refer Mel press club address by Joyce Mar 2011 where he stated that locating assets offshore was not ruled out.
(think he means a/c not management unless refering to future review where a jurisdiction with no extradition treaty may be needed in a hurry)
2. Again note that all of the QF route approvals can be flexed to JQ or another majority owned subisdiary...and.....that means more of their
[allegedly repositioning] 'tag flights' such as the SIN DRW MEL fiascos.
3. Aviation freedoms are givens in all bi-laterals
(except for smarter countries that know the outbound loss always exceeds the inbound economic multipler)
4. China is the key target to make our soggy GDP look better BUT....not under the terms of the JQ shonky sell off the farm franchise.
5. Put it on your desk calendars:
"Safety, Comfort and Convenience" will be the next wave of marketing pitches ......... sadly everything JQ is not and everything that is being gutted from QF
AT
oh and don't forget that the JQ Mission posters STILL have $afety listed as the $ECOND PRIORITY behind performance (sic profit)
