    I wonder if the Qantas situation re grounding of their fleet will be resolved soon.

    Could get ugly. Will the Federal Government step in?

    You really have to wonder don't you.

    Airlines all over the world doing it tough. QANTAS trading on safety record, trading profitablyAnnual Meeting yesterday, CEO gets $2m pay increase, today CEO ups the ante and gets tough forcing the issue.

    The bit I struggled with was that Joyce says with some hint of irony that Virgin were the beneficiaries of their trouble and that Virgin pay less, have fewer Union issues and service their fleet offshore.

    That sounds like good management on Virgins part. I do think that those unions are forcing QANTAS to lose money and reputation, forcing their hand today.

    QANTAS a bit like banks, Telstra etc where they never seem to win the public debate, even when they are probably in the right.
