They came on to the Australian scene 10 years ago and have watched their major competition effectively self destruct, giving them one of the best opportunities to capitalise on the mess.
First Ansett in September 2001
Now QANTAS in October 2011
I don't know if it's quite this serious yet. QF are still profitable. Ansett was an excellent airline but TN was even better. Unfortunately (speaking as an ex TN employee), QF swallowed TN, got rid of most of the TN staff and the rest, they say, is history. I got out at the right time, thankfully.
Hopefully QF will bounce back but they've certainly taken some body blows.
