Qantas cost cutting 2012.
FRA gone, JFK gone.
Bookies offering extremely short odds on the AKL-LAX route survivability.
FRA was reported as being at-risk a few weeks ago because of the Euro financial crisis - are all 9 744s committed to receiving the upgrade?
JFK was recently bumped back up to daily and Joyce stated in the media last September that it had become profitable since QF switched from the Jumbo to the A332. I'd hate for them to drop this flight - it's easily the best way to/from New York. What data is out there to indicate how well a route is performing (other than the tell-tale cancellations on 3K's SIN-AKL)?
