Hopefully QFF won't go down!
I have all of 8000 QFF points to lose

Some noteable quotes in AJ's Speech (my own selection):

As you know we are looking forward to the arrival of 15 of the new Boeing
787-8s for Jetstar towards the second half of next calendar year.

As planned, this will enable the transfer of Airbus A330 aircraft from Jetstar to
Qantas Domestic, and the phased retirement of the Qantas Boeing 767 fleet.

...

From October this year, we will fast-track the upgrade of our domestic Boeing
767 aircraft with fresh interiors.

I have no doubt customers will be delighted, as they are with our refurbished
747s.

Sixteen of our 22 domestic 767s will be upgraded, with the first to be
completed this October.

Our iPad/Q Streaming initiative is also being rolled out to all domestic 767s.

...

Pending regulatory approval, Jetstar Japan will begin international services in
the first half of next year.

Planning for Jetstar Hong Kong continues with our partner China Eastern: the
AOC application has now been lodged.

Overall, nothing new in AJ's speech.

I am glad I am wrong about the International routes being cut. However, with no new aircraft coming into QF International, I fail to see how QF can "grow with Asia" - perhaps QF can get some much cheaper A330 in the very short-term to plug the gap? Otherwise there is NO growth in Asia for QFi other than codeshares with MH from next year (unless my MU theory comes true). However, the above could suggest CGK and MNL will be gone (being less than daily routes) to perhaps be replaced by codeshares. This frees 1-2 aircraft to increase frequencies into Asian hubs.

I'm gutted about the 787 deferral. But I remember a while back 787 were explicitly excluded from the future QF Fleet plan.

Creative accounting all over the place, Jetstar is profitable? QFI is not even though they are flying very high load factors with minimal staffing and costs cut to the bone?

250mil loss, how many $$$ was thrown down the toilet over the grounding and industrial action again.....

Agree with others this result shows QF is still very strong as airlines go, if they hadn't grounded they would have broken even I think which as airlines go is unheard of (particularly 16 previous years of profit!).

 

[The Rok]

I think QF said that the grounding cost them $20 million.

Ah and the rest.

$70mil for the grounding itself $68mil for the protracted union action

I think this sums it up quite well

Must be using QF accounting numbers, not sure how you get 35000 finance experts from a community that does not have that many members :shock:.

or more seriously, how QF manged to get the 35,000 new finance experts flying on any airline other than Qantas.

It is called... Q-ative accounting

The last point caught my attention.

I wonder if that just means ex-SYD or whether MEL and BNE will get any action on NRT, PVG and BKK.

Haven't you heard the Qantas tagline?

"Spirit of Sydney"

Oh that's just breakfast

For every AFFer pi**ed off by the result or uses the word 'spin' in their post, 1 shot of tequila.

1 additional shot per million dollars of loss on QFi.

1 additional shot every time "Jetstar" is uttered.

That should ease the pain.

Some of us don't drink alcohol

Currently sitting on a 767 in J ex PER - they remain in desperate need of an upgrade.

LOL

FWIW - Recent attempts to make/keep SIN as a hub / focus city has benefits for your's truly, however MEL and BNE are definitely neglected c.f. SYD.
