That's not what I'm saying at all Thumbs up, I just don't like "open ended" bets, they normally send the booky broke. Now if you want part of the action, take the bet with me now and at the end of 6 months, if I win, you buy me 24 Crownies and I'll stake the same bet with you again for the next six months and six months after that if you wish. You've sure got my "thumbs up!"
apacau - regional airlines will always feed the domestics in one way or another. What I am saying is that SQ will not start a domestic airline down here in Oz - plain & simple fact.

That's rather charitable of Rod to suggest that a competitor would be better off to put passengers on an airline that he just happens to be a Board Member of. An airline that the company he runs just happens to own 18% of. Well done Rod. A fine attempt to talk up the QF share price. You have to remember that just because these guys have the top jobs doesn't necessarily mean they know what they are talking about. Who will ever forget Rods classic statement when AirNZ bought the final 50% of Ansett, "this deal is win,win". Good one Rod. You're doing a great job at BA!!!

SQ want much more than the domestic market. They will only fly BNE-SYD-MEL-ADL-PER and maybe Hobart, Darwin and OOL. The other cities will be serviced by Alliance, Rex or Skywest.
You may not know, but AN MkI was due to start flights to the U.S. in March 2002. SQ want the AN Int'l slots so they can get into the U.S. This would also alleviate any problem with United going bankrupt.

Yeah right, there's two ways the Oz Govt are going to allow that to happen and that's assuming the US don't squawk about it

I've just finished reading every post on this thread right from the start and the one thing that really strikes me is that we do indeed live in 'interesting times'
