And if you purchased a QANTAS ticket to Berlin....'Operated by Emirates'
I think you will find EK don't operate to Berlin, the Germans, as are many European countries, are concerned about possible predatory behavior.

And if you purchased a Delta ticket to Atlanta it was operated as Comair 5191.
And if you purchased a Continental ticket to Buffalo it was operated as Colgan 3407 etc.

You lose control of your product and it's only cheaper until you have an incident caused by pilots being forced to sleep on park benches and accepting the lowest possible standards.

Personally I prefer my family to fly on aircraft with two or more well rested, well paid and very well trained and tested pilots.
