$915 Mil My prayer... resignation announcement. |
$1.2 b
It's a sure thing. |
1. Code sharing across the Pacific using EK 380's
2. QF hosties working on EK flights on the kangaroo route (If it hasn't been chopped. 3. EK pilots flying QF 380's (Showing them how it's done in DXB) 4. Mr Joyce walking away with a 'gold watch' as a thank you for all the cut backs in staffing levels. I will come back and see how off the mark I was :ok: |
Nick Xenophon would like to take a stab at answering Wedcue's question!!
From Nicks SMH article,
Its excuses over the years have included an unlevel playing field, higher fuel costs, difficult unions, a high or low Australian dollar (Qantas has blamed both in recent years) to name but a few. Qantas' excuses for abysmal performance and grand plans for a turnaround just don't stack up. Qantas chief Alan Joyce has many questions to answer Surely it is time that the 5 foot human wrecking ball (and other associated parties to the QF destruction) be frog marched out of Mascot (and preferably Australia) immediately? |
I want a job that pays me 22 million to destroy something. Where can I apply?
|
My tip is $780M and much congrats for the Board for keeping below $1B in these troubled times.
|
"Closest guess wins a night with Livvy."
Errrr, um, it's a profit? :p |
$897 million
|
$747 million plus write downs and redundancy costs forced into the 13-14 FY.
|
It is going to be a huge number regardless and we know the reasons for it.
What we want to know is how they are going to fix it - we won't get those answers today, it will just be the normal spin. Announcements that should happen (like the board and CEO will end their tenure by the end of the year) won't happen and there will be no strategy going forward to give anyone confidence. It is about time these big shareholders make some noise.......... |
$852 million.
|
Operating loss circa $350 million. Other one offs, write downs, redundancies, etc to take it Ito $890-1.1 billion. Retired debt in their circa $100 million or so.
|
I think Keg is about right on the QF mainline operating loss. What is not ever apparent is the JQ Intl and Asian misadventure losses. Given the various snippets of information from those quarters. I would guess another 130-200 million there. Add in the one-off costs and we get a nice headline custom made to instill confidence in travellers buying a ticket for future travel. :ugh::ugh:
When manure starts to snowball it gets ugly fast. The only way forward is to replace all of the board and executive and blazon ads and billboards with the old "under new management" ray of hope. |
$1.25 billion loss - all the fault of overpaid pilots, surplus Engineers and company destroying unions.
Now, where's my bonus and ???? |
$1billion.
The Irishman will tell us about the tough times in the industry blah blah. The board will pat themselves on the back and blame the overpaid pilots, overpaid trolley dollies, the non level playing field, the unions etc! The fund managers will just sit there unable to explain why they have such faith in in the board and management of the rat! Just confirm the first prize is a night with lovely Livvy! |
Holy sh$tballs. 2.84b
|
$2.84 billion
$2,840,000,000 Holy crap. |
