Management Incompetence
There is one reason and one reason only why Qantas is in decline:Incompetent management.
Successive managements post privatisation have made mistake after mistake.
Poor fleet mix
Poor network planning
Poor staff engagement
Poor maintenance decisions
Poor corporate governance
Poor management skillset
Poor IT capability
This forum has been filled with these observations for at least ten years and it is only now that mainstream media is catching on.
Most of Qantas senior management are part of the Magic circle Club that destroyed Ansett and brought Air New Zealand to its knees.Mix in a vertically challenged Irish narcissist and you the recipe for another airline to disappear.
The stupidity continues unabated.
Tony Fernandes is about ot eat these guys for breakfast
