If anything the business will wait until the dust settles to see which cost efficiencies work best... perhaps its worth keeping in mind the initial base establishments costs are quite high, additionally that the base was opened when there were 4 QF flts a day to Asia... 3 of which were crewed by QFCCUK and QAL was the majority operating 747 flts. Now we have QCCA to the mix in addition to QFCCUK each with their different cost efficiencies with associated advantages.

Its best to keep in mind the cost efficiencies primarily lie with the labour cost per hour of the work group, not with hotels & allowances - a common misconception.
