A move that increases the attraction of the recent EK/QF announcement-
Emirates and AMR in partnership talks
Emirates and AMR in partnership talks
Clark says that whether American chooses to retain its partnership with Etihad is up to them, and adds that Emirates has not placed any condition on American to drop its links with Etihad in order to work with the Dubai-based airline.
Emirates recently announced a 10-year agreement with American's Oneworld partner Qantas Airways that will involve Qantas moving its Asian hub from Singapore to Dubai. Clark, however, indicates that the Qantas agreement has no bearing on its plans to partner with American. He points out that the Qantas tie-up does not extend to the USA, even though he was quick to add that "that could change".
