How convenient your first line!
If AirNZ could survive without Qantas, your silly little parochial nation would pursue that path.
With a massive recapitalisation required, this is AirNZs only chance. Clarke knows it wouldn't survive in a real world, with competition at both ends from Qantas and Virgin.
I will watch with interest to see how Dixon manages what will become a Dog. The antiQantas groundswell, stimulated by parochial politicians( there is an anti-QF website), will promote convenient poor workpractices. Any problems AirNZ faces, any challenges conveniently avoided, the finger can now be pointed at QF.
The evasion of responsibility, a Kiwi pastime.
