Qantas/Emirates Codeshare
Rumour of a Thursday announcement about a Emirates/Qantas Domestic (the new one) buy in of 30% or 40% (hearing conflicting numbers). Apparently in QF's reservation system the Emirates Codeshare is already preloaded and visible. Any confirmation from anyone?
Will the agreement be with only QF Domestic? or the QANTAS Group?
i.e. Emirates might be happy using Qantaslink with say SYD to Port Macquarie but surely not JQ SYD/OOL

Airline Hub Buzz had a link to something a week or so back that showed that a particular reservation system was now 'preferencing' EK flights to Europe tying up with QF instead of BA flights. Don't recall what that was all about.

EK codeshare tie up with QF
I can confirm that the res systems are now loaded with EK codeshare.
Checking in at Bne Intl recently, the QF check in guy asked me if I was aware of this. I said no so he then spun his screen around & showed me. Sure enough the code sharing with EK was clearly there. The system is loaded up ready to go. Saw it with my own eyes.

Was like this in the late 90s as well.
It makes sense, would be good for shareholders and would be one of the few steps taken by management re the international network about which I could say that.
It probably means the death of QF mainline to just about anywhere north and west of Singapore though.

"I've been to cities, now don't get me wrong
From Hong Kong to Singapore,
Singapore to Hong Kong,
Once we could take you worldwide anywhere
Now we can just code share"

New branding for QF. It's been months since the last one.

It was actually 2008 that Geoff Dixon announced the 'new' kangaroo. It was praised at the time by branding experts as a subtle but important change to the brand. I wonder what they think of the fact that four years on only about half of our fleet is in the new brand.

Has qantas got a cash flow problem? Do they need to raise Capitol?
How are they going to pay for all these 787's and a320's on order?
How's that Asian expansion going? What's been spent so far on the Jetstar experiment?
I would have thought that the one asset at Managements disposal to "dispose of" or should that be "leverage off " would be Jetstar.
After all, haven't management claimed all along that Jetstar isn't beholdant to the Sale Act, a claim by the way that hasn't been challenged in court yet.
I wonder how much leverage the unions could wangle there?

I have to wonder if workers bought shares, maybe a few each, not a crazy amount, but price is low - can it get much lower?
well if workers had more of a say in the business in the form of shares could things be better? Not sure if they can get much more dire for the workers.... Although never say never... what I am saying, they can get heaps worse.....
Just an idea. Can anyone tell me do they think the share price can get lower by much? I know the world market has collapsed etc etc.....
