Ansett Australia To Be Born Again ?
Get those resumes out and ready to go !!!
This from www.news.com.au
Ansett revival possible
September 03, 2002
SINGAPORE Airlines could be considering a proposal to revive the collapsed Ansett airline.
Less than two week's short of the anniversary of Ansett's failure, Channel Nine tonight reported a proposal to revive the airline would be put to Singapore's board.
Singapore Airlines consultants in Australia began secretly assembling a proposal for a full domestic competitor to Qantas about six months ago, with the proposal completed about a week ago.
Sydney Airports Corporation Ltd spokesman Greg Russell told Nine he believed Singapore was serious in its Australian domestic airline bid.
"We have every reason to believe this is being considered very seriously indeed," he said.
It is believed the Singapore domestic fleet in Australia would comprise 24 Airbus aircraft.
The Singapore proposal found the Ansett brand name still had strong support among Australians.
However, Ansett lawyer Leon Zwier said tonight there had been no discussion with Singapore Airlines.
"We're not sitting down to talks ... we're not doing deals with Ansett names or parts," he said.
"Although if they want to talk to us they would be welcome."
An Ansett administrators' spokeswoman would not comment on any speculation the airline was seeking a "domestic airline solution in Australia".

Airline silent on Ansett revival
Singapore Airlines is not confirming or denying a report that it is interested in reviving Ansett.
Channel Nine has reported that Singapore will soon consider a plan to launch a new Ansett using 24 airbus aircraft and employing around 3,000 staff.
A spokesman for Singapore Airlines says Australia is a market of interest for the airline, which operates 70 flights a week into the country.
The spokesman says Singapore is keeping its options open for the Australian market.
From ABC News.
From Singapore: The Business Times. 03.09.02
MELBOURNE - Singapore Airlines (SIA) today dismissed speculation that it was considering a proposal to revive Australia's collapsed Ansett airline.
In the latest in a series of rumours concerning SIA's plans for Australia's domestic aviation market, TV station Channel Nine reported a proposal to revive the failed Ansett brand was set to go before the airline's board.
Sydney Airports Corp spokesman Greg Russell told Nine he believed Singapore was serious in its Australian airline bid.
"We have every reason to believe this is being considered very seriously indeed," he said.
But an SIA spokesman in Singapore told AFP "nothing has changed" since the last time rumours surfaced that the airline was preparing a foray into the Australian domestic market.
The airline dismissed a similar report in July as groundless, although leaving open the option of entering the Australian market at some stage.
"It's just another speculative story," the airline's vice president for public affairs, Rick Clements, said then, adding: "We are not ruling out any possibility of running another airline in the future nor are we ruling it in at this stage."
Channel Nine said SIA consultants in Australia began secretly assembling a proposal for a full domestic competitor to Qantas Airways Ltd about six months ago, with the proposal completed about a week ago.
Please explain why SIA are in Melbourne?

According to Channel 9 News..........
Channel Nine news here in Australia this morning says it is now official, SIA are definitely seeking to revive Ansett with about 24 Airbus aircraft, 3 class service and employ about 3000 staff.
They will fly major cities only and feed their own and other Star Alliance international flights, possibly operate some international flights too.
They are setting up to be in direct competition with QANTAS rather than Virgin Blue.
Best of luck to everyone that manages to get a job.

Sorry Mrs Floaty - I was just passing on what I saw/heard and hoping it might bring a bit of cheer to the unemployed! (it was also on 7, 10 and in the papers).
And as for SBS, well, if you ever want to hear a minority/extreme/left wing/anti-Australian/anti-establishment view point then, by all means, go for SBS!

Blueeagle and others,
There is a real buzz here in Dubai about the possibilty of the Australian home market thriving once again. A lot of the Cabin and Cockpit crews here at Emirates - especially those who have done several years here in the Country - appear to be quite eager to fly back home once again.
I certainly hope that it is good news all round for the industry.

As a pax, I wish. I'm off to Aus and NZ next week on a business trip - SQ & NZ for the most part but QF when I have to on domestics. AN were just so good, seeing them back and QF knocked of their arrogant perch by having competition from another real player would just be so good.
Hope it happens for all you brilliant AN people out there for who nothing was ever too much trouble and you always had a good smile and a lot of cheer.

So the view round here is that it is all journalistic smoke and mirrors?
Someone better tell the rump of the purchasing dept who are busy provisioning aircraft at the moment then.
They are spending a shed load of money for a rumour.

No tyra, it wasn't one bad day, it was five bad days culminating in my colleague stowing her laptop in the overhead locker and a crew member saying it was safe and securing the locker. The crew member was the last person to touch the locker.
On take off, the locker opened and the laptop went flying, fortunately, it missed hitting anyone. We are still waiting for any kind of apology though the laptop failed to function from there on and we lost a lot of work. What we did get was berated for not stowing it safely by the very crew member who had checked it and closed the locker and when I said that I thought safety was a crew responsibility, I was told to shut up and mind my own business as it was my colleagues laptop. QF continued to maintain that they were in no way liable for this accident and in the end we gave up on them as a bunch of deadbeats.
So ended my travels with QF and all I can say is that I am not looking forward to flying with them one bit this time and if there was a choice I'd be taking it. But QF crew, you're getting another chance, so go on impress me though if your attitude is like it was the last time, you will already have decided that you have no need to do that.
First domestic sector is QF 439 on 15th September, second is QF 636 on 16th, then QF 606 on 19th and QF 567 on 22nd. The challenge is yours, I expect you to fail, miserably, after the last time.

Skyflier:
with thoughts such as this:
-- "The challenge is yours, I expect you to fail, miserably, after the last time." --
then I think you will find that QANTAS will fail miserably - because you expect it. Bad vibes attract bad vibes (that is not meant to sound as "whoa man, feel the peace" as it does!). The fact is (whether you like it or not) that you don't have any choice but to fly QANTAS on most routes. So, if you find travelling QANTAS as horrible as it seems you do, the best thing to do would be just grin and bear it, or choose another method of transport.
While you may think that good service is the exception in QANTAS, it shouldn't stop you from thinking of all of the 'good apples' (such as tyra, by the sounds of her last post) - and there are good apples out there!
If you look for the bad in any situation - you will find it!
Good luck with your travels!

I'm actually determined to be open minded when I get to Australia about this. I know that most crews are well motivated and good people but also, at times morale in a company gets pushed to rock bottom as the work force are squeezed for various reasons. Given that strike action has recently affected QF I guess all is not well there so I don't suppose morale is that good which is why I expect poor service as well as previous experience.
I fly far enough, often enough to know that crews have relatively little control over things that can make a flight pleasant or not like the quality of food, seating allocation and so on but by being friendly (after all, most Aussies are exceptionally friendly!) and cheerful and responding in a pleasant manner they can make a huge difference to perception of the service and their company.
I had never flown QF before the times I referred to so I had no preconceived ideas and I think I was open minded but my experiences were not good and five bad sectors is a lot one after the other. I would add that I found the ground staff helpful and friendly on all occasions. My issue really was with the attitude and manner of the cabin crew, the like of which I had never encountered before anywhere.

Skiflier....sweetheart......pet,
I bet you have already typed your complaint letter to QF for your upcoming flights ? No ? .....yeh right. I do not know what your problem is regarding the laptop incident but how about you and your friend take some responsibility. Because your friend was careless with her stowage of her laptop, you have turned it all around back on to QF by claiming the cabin crew are rude ? It doesn't make sense. QF did not tell your friend to take your laptop with her on the flight, she could have easily placed the laptop well underneath the seat in front of her, why is it QF's fault that she chose to store it up there ? There is a clear PA made on all QF flights which state where you can stow your luggage. You are clearly bitter with QF for some reason and I think it goes deeper than your alledged bad treatment, are you a flight attendant reject yourself ? You have no right to shoot your mouth off on THIS forum especially because you ARE NOT a cabin crew member and therefore have no business here. Judging by your post your attitude is the type that would provoke blunt or ill mannered responses from crew should you use this type of " I hate qantas and i'm going to sit in my seat and be miserable for the whole flight "attitude towards them.
I am truly sorry though that you feel this way and of course rude cabin crew should not be encountered by anyone, however, perhaps your mannerisms or expecations are different to those of us in Australia and acting disgruntled could possibly provoke the horrible treatment you alledge to have received on QF domestic flights. There are much worse airlines out there than QF who by the way was just voted airline of the year by a national travel magazine. ( It seems obvious that not everyone shares your opinion). The fact is that QANTAS is a global airline and on forums such as these we only hear the bad things about QF and not the good things.
Do us all a favour and fly QF LINK before you go around bad mouthing the whole Qantas group. You'll find a fresh youthful bunch of happy and enthusiastic crew to help persude your opinion.

MODERATOR - IS THERE A REASON WHY THE POSTS OF THIS USER SHOULD BE ALLOWED IN THIS FORUM ? THE POSTER IS NOT A FLIGHT ATTENDANT AND HAS CLEARLY COME ON HERE TO BASH QF. THERE IS A FORUM FOR CIVILIANS CALLED " SLF " WHICH THE USER SHOULD BE DIRECTED TO FOR ISSUES SUCH AS THE ONE THE POSTER IS RAISING. AUSTRALIAN F/A'S SHOULD NOT HAVE TO COME ON THIS FORUM TO DEAL WITH DISGRUNTLED PAX, I DO BELIEVE THE FORUM WAS STARTED FOR DISCUSSIONS BETWEEN CREW MEMBERS ALIKE. EVERY AIRLINE HAS THERE OWN PUBLIC RELATIONS DEPT WHICH FOLLOWS THE CORRECT PROCEDURE IN DEALING WITH SUCH COMPLAINTS, RATHER THAN THE POSTER PROVIDING DATES OF TRAVEL TO QF CREW ON THIS SITE FOR WHICH HE IS ASKING TO RECEIVE BETTER SERVICE.

Yes, it's thread creep, and yes, the complaint element is more appropriate to SLF... but why bin an entire thread just because a complaint appears? This is still alive, the points have been dealt with pretty well in my opinion, including by yourself, and if everyone now sticks to the topic in hand we'll be back on track.
Fair enough? A tactic I recommend is always contribute something to the topic, even if the main thrust of the reply you are writing is dealing with a tangential issue. Retains focus, and helps neutralise drift.
...and having broken that rule, can we keep this about the rebirth of Ansett, please. Debates on procedure, etc on new threads, please.

Oops, my original intention in posting was to wish good luck to many good people who gave me lots of good service over a great number of trips. If I should not have done that in this forum I'm sorry but I for one really would like to see AN back in the sky and many good people back in the jobs they did so well.
If in making my post I went off the main topic I'm also sorry. I'm not into complaining and have only once made a complaint to an airline in over 20 years and that was nothing to do with the crew. Cabinboy, please go back and read what I said, we didn't do anything that we were asked not to do at any stage, you weren't there (I don't think!) and your response is more than a bit OTT.

Firstly, let me say that I personally don't think that this thread should be closed because of a complaint. Skyflier, brought up a 'gripe' with QANTAS in a non-offensive manner - all within his/her rights.
Skyflier --
It is good to see that you have an open attitude. My post was simply a bit of friendly advice. After all, air-travel in Australia is choice limited so it is far better for your stress levels and emotional health to be 'non-chalant' about any bad experiences you encounter. There is no point getting stressed when you don't have any other options which enable you to vent your anger - such as choosing a competing airline!
Now, back on topic.
I think it would be fabulous to see a third carrier emerge from the tangled messes of the last year!
But just a question...
The media are reporting a 'three class service airline'. Would this mean the traditional first/business/economy or something more like business/premium economy/no-frills economy. Wouldn't three classes inflate the cost base? I can't see why anyone would wan't to pay extra for a larger seat and food on a hour and 20 minute SYD-MEL service! Obviously people do though.

Saloon,
One would think that the operation would be set up as a first/business/economy layout as this would be consistent with the connecting SQ flights which have the three class layout.
In regards to the skifliers comments, yes he/she is enititled to an opinion however as an off duty f/a accessing this bulletin board it is annoying to have to read complaints from unhappy pax. This is not why I visit this bulletin board and I dare say other members also !
Would love to see Ansett back in the sky myself as I have previously said earlier in this thread, but I have doubts that SQ would use the " Ansett " name again.
Best Regards
CB
