And less than a week after Dixon and his management team confirmed that they would stay on, you poor buggers find that:
"airline's current dream run could continue for another 18 months, thanks to record passenger demand, strong Australian economy and strong forward bookings."
So Dixon has resurrected his plans for a possible demerger of his Jetstar operations and sale of his frequent flyer program, three weeks after the collapse of the $11.1 billion takeover attempt by Airline Partners Australia.
And this is after the Jackson said sell, Dixon said sell - or the shares will more than halve - today they were trading at a record high of $5.51 at 12.25pm today.
This is 6c higher than the failed $5.45 offer made by the Macquarie-led Airline Partners Australia consortium. APA had warned Qantas shares would crash if its bid failed.
And you poor buggers are led by those two!!!

Based on the share price now, it makes a person wonder how much concern Dixon and Jackson actually held for the shareholder prior to the APA buyout attempt. Snort! Snort!

What's with the fluffy language 'de-merger'...surely they mean BREAK-UP!?
You can't de-merge from something that was already part of the group to begin with...all Jetstar had was a different lick of paint and some extra planes.

This has got to be the biggest attempted heist in Australia's corperate history. Surely some form of insider trading issue exists here. Clearly the share holders where NOT told the whole truth not even half of it. Their (Qantas) 'best' analysis said the shares would drop considerably. As of a few min ago a share price of $5.53 and not looking as though it was approaching TOC. I hope the board and Dixon answer why they should not exit on the horse they road in on at the AGM. They should really be the subject of a criminal investigation into why they deliberately misled share holders.
