Just like Ansett, again.
International. Mainline. Ansett WA. East West. I guess that the abandonment of the TAP and the engineered destruction of Ansett was just a waste of time. :bored: |
I agree Monster sounds like a plan well thought out.
Anthill the big difference between VA and AN is that VA has somebody in charge that knows his business. |
Tiger will fly all domestic and international leisure routes with the A320 and possibly future A321's. VAA/VANZ will operate domestic and international routes out to 8-9 hours with the 737/A330(probably A350). 777 operation will probably be wound up by 2015/2016. Anything over about 9-10 hrs will be on Etihad/Singapore/Delta metal. I sort of agree with the LH 777 flying, albeit equally don't think SQ or NZ will want VA flying A330s into Asia. At present VAH (ie the listed company) is foreign owned - 70%+ thru the four key shareholders. VAIH (the international arm that was spun off) is under 50% and held as an unlisted company under a trust of some sort but managed by VAH. Not clear if VAIH will publish separate financials (I would think it should as it is separately owned), or indeed how it will get additional capital to expand (presumably can't come from VAH as it now has separate shareholders who dont own VAIH). But whilst shareholding remains as is, it is an Australian flag carrier, albeit one that will seemingly struggle to get expansion funding unless it makes big profits. Then we have Tiger - it is 40% owned by Tiger Sing (a foreign company) and 60% by VAH which while Australian listed is majority foreign owned... So can Tiger even fly internationally under an Australian flag? |
