Total: 126 Qantas A380 12 787 4 747 10* (reducing and not doing the flying of ten). A330 28 737 75 Total: 129 How to measure the profit? Per ASK? Longhaul is lower due to the longer distances. The QF FF scheme generates most of it’s profit because people want to fly QF aeroplanes, not Jetstar, so that needs to be factored in too. (Jetstar fleet data from their website. QF’s from a third party source due to the QF website not listing it explicitly that I could find easily). |
Qantas never had 12 747-300’s. In the early 2000’s, They had 6 300’s Plus 5 200’s and 2 SP’s. By 2005 all the 200’s and SP’s had gone. Whats more important is that Qf isn’t Just stagnating, it’s being shrunk - and without any new orders from this CEO, it ain’t looking pretty. Like a funeral parlour not ordering coffins!! |
Fair enough V-Jet, you may be right about the SP’s and the 200’s, I can’t remember when they left, but your numbers are still inaccurate. |

Very moot point but SP’s I was pretty sure had long gone by 2000 - and I’m almost as sure all the 200’s had gone. I’ve asked a few people over the last year or so and that was the ‘consensus’ of all. If anyone’s has got better recollection than that, I’d be interested. |

Seeing you’re doing like for like with the jq entities, might need to add in a few dash 8’s to inflate the Qf numbers for the ‘link. Whilst you’re doing that, might need to add a few 717’s for that link and a few a320’s for a the new link! |

However, the Jetstar NZ profits (or losses because let’s be honest, no one would know from the annual report) are reported as part of the overall Jetstar performance. Therefore it’s appropirate that their fleet (including the Dash 8s) are included. interestingly I think it was the Cutest of Borg who a number of years ago nailed JQ’s rubbery figures when they were including NZ domestic pax as part of their ‘stunning international growth’ numbers. |
Might want to also track a few other RatedDe claims:
1. Network A320s to be crewed by Jetstar pilots. 2. 457 visa application for Qantas mainline pilots 3. Supposed new and indefinite training freeze applying to Qantas 737 pilots Any of these actually true? |
RC: Much as I think I could have a better conversation about business and profitability with a child of three (because it’s obvious you personally have none) I ask the following question with some trepidation, as what is good for the goose, should equally be good for the gander, but: Can you attest that they (RD’s) claims aren’t? Thanks for the input regarding 2005 fleet. It occurred to me a while ago that no one has a record of shrinkage off the top of their heads. I think it’s important to remember what was, compared to what is. |

Ahhhhh - but you have, and on many occasions. Evidence please..... PS: Are you on overtime - a long day at the Kool Aid Counter for you. My sympathies. |
V-Jet, fair go. I’m no fan of RC or Qantas’ strategy but you can’t expect someone to disprove any wild accusation or rumour that an anonymous poster may choose to make. It is surely encumbent on the person making the allegation to prove its veracity, not for others to have to prove it false. |

It is surely encumbent on the person making the allegation to prove its veracity, not for others to have to prove it false. Rather than say 'Give us proof JQ will be more than 12(?? something like that) aircraft - Your claims are baseless, we will never do that!'. Which (as was suspected at the time) is/was/and always will be/ patent nonsense at best and a criminal lie at worst - Why not just provide the proof up front that the allegations are just nonsense? Up to this point, Qf Management have been an absolute case in point that their words are totally untrustworthy and they lie as a matter of course. So - turn the questions on their heads for a change. So - 'Sorry, commercial in confidence' just doesn't cut it anymore. The burden of accuracy in this case seems to have been levied (for decades now) upon the innocent questioners. Provide proof. Surely simple enough to defeat the questions with facts that a few quarrelsome drones in Sector 7G might ask. Can't be hard.... Stop apologising for asking simple questions!!! If they can't be answered simply - I guarantee obfuscation and lies are involved.... |
Hey V-Jet. What would you say to somebody who was making a complete Ass of themselves? Just curious.
|
If history is anything to go by, they would be paid in the region of $25m a year. Why do you ask?

Post evidence to the contrary (‘quash’ the rumour), otherwise it’s entirely plausible that these options have been considered, ergo they are a subject of discussion. |

As for the other 2 - I have no proof either for or against them. Apparently neither do you either. If you reckon that means people should be able to just post anything unsubstantiated and not be challenged on it, good for you. But when I see someone posing as some Europe-based aviation expert when they are clearly not, I question their real motive for posting random and fear-creating rumours. |

Qantas operated the 747-200 and SP into 2002. Just one of the many other ‘facts’ on this thread! :D |
