Why is this bad? The passengers have to move. None of the money is going to Quantas. The Quantas employees should encourage this. It will put more pressure on Quantas.

I guess that's another way to look at it...

The AFKLM/AZ Joint Venture is a revenue sharing, metal neutral agreement.
Any lost revenue or lack of profit on the AFKLM/AZ side hurts Delta to the tune of 50% of the lost revenue.

Likewise any revenue loss at Delta hurts AFKLM/AZ just the same, and obviously profits are affected in the same manner, they are shared.

Thanks.....

No worries mate.

We're only exposed to the Bundle 1 flights for this, so all Transatlantic and the LAX FAA (Papeete Tahiti) flight.

Good news. All 16 747s to be modified with lay flats and the 2 that were going back to lease holders returning next year. Now who was it that said DAL wants out of the 4 eng business?? Scambo maybe or did I guess wrong?? .:D

That's great news and my guess is the name you're after is tsquare, not scambo...

WOW,.Good news!!!!:)! THis airline business is like a cranky old woman. THey cant keep their stories straight and they keep on changing their plans.

On a side note. Just flew Hawaiian to HNL a couple days ago. Sat in coach on a fare ticket. I can not believe how much better their service is than ours (clean/pretty airplanes, good food and an overall festive onboard vibe). We need to step it up to the Islands.
