"Market Standards", schlong hauler, ;)"Market Standards" ;)
It probably belongs in the same basket as "Market Forces" - that quantifiable term used by airline managers to lower everyone else's conditions.......................except their own! ;)

Perhaps someone could explain in what capacity ARGUS and others base their opinions on?
Certainly. I'm a frequent flier (pointy end mug punter) to both Europe and North America; and domestically to and from most major cities. And check my profile - which is considerably more expansive than yours!

Aussies sometimes like to whinge,
Sometimes they like to whine,
But with Dixon running QANTAS,
We can do it ALL the time.

In "honour" of Geoff's "achievements", the official logo of QANTAS will be changed from the Roo to the Wombat - that uniquely Australian marsupial renown for its ability to burrow deeply, and the other hallmark well known to Australians - it eats roots and leaves.

Nice pic EM,
And oh so true

The thing with GD is he is but the public face, and by the way I'm not defending him he isn't on my christmas card list.

Don't forget the Dame and son of, another two intellectual featherweights. It is these idiots and the other cronies who sit around tables collecting director fees that drive this puppy, of which GD is one...:E


So Dame M how much did ya make from Southcorp's stunning performance under your stellar leadership?:mad:

Eimar,

Eats Roots and leaves is the truth.

Eats up heaps of the profits.

Roots... Ask any staff member.

Leaves. Thats in about 2 years from now.

I thought it was eats roots shoots and leaves. The would make:
[figuratively] shoots those that disagree or are a cost factor.

Problem with QANTAS:

They still charge premium rates but have cut the service. e.g.

Two months ago I flew QANTAS Full economy Syd - Adl.
Took off at like 5 or 6 pm, landed like 7:30 Adl time.

Got to place where I was staying at 8:30. What did I get to eat for my full economy seat :

3 little biscuits.

Cheap :mad:s
