Qantas/Jetstar Merge?
Now that VB has become VA with a business class offering, when is a likely time to merge the two QF businesses?
Has the two brand strategy failed because it looks like VA will become a 50 percent competitor and QF/Jetstar now has issues such as QF pilots flying beside Jetstar pilots (hypothetically). As a passenger, I'm very confused do I fly Jetstar or Qantas????? (I can only afford Econony) When would be a good time to merge them - must be getting close now? |

Not a wind up, so I will ask this:
Is it already too late to merge back into one and will they stay separated? |
It would make sense so it therefore won't happen
|
Catch18. not a chance.

Pathetic wind up attempt c18!

The banks don't seem to be in any rush to "merge" into one....
ie Westpac/st george, Commbank/bankwest etc I thought there would be "synergies" in doing this or are those banks on lower wages/conditions to? Incidently, talking about banks, why can't American banks set up here and lend at essentially half price? Is it because of a AUDUS exchange rate downside risk, or is the banking sector not fully deregulated? Haha - its not a wind up, its a decision that needs to made pretty damn soon because some figures will be published soon in the annual report that will beg a lot of questions, not just this one!!!!!!! |
QF is currently splitting into International and Domestic so merging with Jetstar is unlikely. It would create "synergies" [that great word from a previous CEO] such as not needing about 60% of managers, therefore managers don't like to merge.:ugh:

It does happen. |
