QF: The Virgin distraction
short flights long nights
Until a vaccine is found, I don’t think anything will be ‘ bouncing back’ anytime soon.
Leisure to Bali will bounce back almost instantly. I would even expect extra flights put on to Bali this Christmas. I reckon you could fill a Orange Liner out of Wagga full of Bogans for weeks once it’s over.
USA is going to be up the $hitter big time for the next 24 months.
International restrictions will be in place long after state border controls are relaxed.
Who in their right mind would travel to Indonesia or the USA for that matter, until a vaccine is available. Travel insurance will wipe its hands of any COVID-19 related claims.
Domestic Australia aviation will recover and in itself light the fire under the domestic travel economy and its related and reliant industries, together with business travel domestically.
That may be the savior for Australia.

Viruses come and go. Note the graphs about June 1. By the time you find a vaccine in 18 months, covid-20 will be out
then that will take another 18 months for a vaccine. So it goes.

Force them to stop eating weird sh1t.
Educate the mindless Chinese masses that powdered tiger’s penis does not put lead into your tiny pencil.

IsDon01 totally agree. Can we skip the depression in the 20/30s and the war in the early 40s just go straight to the 50s
where we manufactured in this country and bought in this country.

Some new research (don’t forget this disease is still only a few months old) has indicated the wet markets may not have been the source of the virus. And the developing Chinese wet markets (basically a farmer’s market) have quite low rates of microbial illness compared to other developing nations indicating higher hygiene standards.
It doesn’t matter really, because viruses will find a way to develop and replicate in any place.
H1N1 originated in Mexico
The 1918 epidemic originated in the US
Viruses and communicable diseases originate all over the world in a variety of ways, a new illness was always bound to originate from somewhere, a lot of documentation has been around for years warning another large pandemic event was bound to happen sooner or later, wet market or no wet market. As it was said in Jurassic Park “life (Or RNA wrapped in a protein) finds a way....”
The key will be for a better public health response, stockpiling of preventative equipment, sanitary products, testing kits en mass ala what some Asian nations like South Korea have done. Hopefully more western nations will follow suit now they have experience in a modern pandemic. Maybe we need to adjust our nation’s defences accordingly against the real threats we face.

Forgot one more thing. Western nations need to start eating properly, stop eating crap food or else your gut will give you any disease you like.

No actually the problem won’t be just “solved”.

And the developing Chinese wet markets (basically a farmer’s market) have quite low rates of microbial illness compared to other developing nations indicating higher hygiene standards.

Thats one hypothesis but it is not established fact.
and frome the same open source encyclopedia

In addition, the haemagglutinin glycoproteins of the virus suggest that it was around far prior to 1918 and other studies suggest that the reassortment of the H1N1 virus likely occurred in or around 1915.[23]
Hannoun considered several alternative hypotheses of origin, such as Spain, Kansas, and Brest, as being possible, but not likely.[31] Political scientist Andrew Price-Smith published data from the Austrian archives suggesting the influenza began in Austria in early 1917.[34]
So you’re saying the 1918 influenza could’ve originated in the US, Spain, France or Austria?
Still makes my point valid, viruses can form in any country, even western ones.
Nope just someone who doesn’t have an axe to grind against China. Twiggy Forrest doesn’t either, he went to the Chinese consulate when the outbreak first occurred and recorded a statement of sympathy and support for the Chinese. In return he was able to source 3 A330’s worth of medical supplies for Australia ahead of other countries who were willing to pay more. That’s called good leadership. I guess you can get a good dopamine fix by calling the Chinese disease creating scum on the Internet, they probably won’t be as willing to help us out however.

Research sponsored by your friendly Chinese Government
And I’m sure any patients hooked up to the ventilators, medical workers using the masks, people aware of their status due to the testing kits will have no axe to grind against the Chinese as well.

I think Twiggy is one of the few billionaires with a heart of gold.
Few articles stating they are seeking to offload its Vietnam stake to Vietnam Airlines. Claims are Vietnam will then shrink or close it down.
Sell the Japanese offshoot to JAL so they can then integrate its newly formed long haul loco.
Singapore might be too much of a save face situation so could hold. Apparently it’s key in feeding QF Singapore traffic, regardless of it losing tens if millions a year.

Loss making ventures in Asia that lease small fleets of 10-20 aircraft are only worth the slots they own. Possibly some terminal gates and engineers if in short supply. Some used to take them just for Pilots also, but not at the moment.
