in response to both bill & david, once qantas announces the imminent retirement of an aircraft, the aviation market jumps at them because of their impeccable service history. so these aircraft don’t last long on the market and attract top dollar. when retiring a ‘type’ or ‘series’ of aircraft, there’s very little needed to keep them around ‘in case’ someone decides they may want to use them in the future. especially as qantas introduced the replacement 737 - 800 delivering better economics and comfort. qantas, did however, store 737 - 400 vh - tjy. i have no reason why. storing aircraft costs money as well – lots of it .
a qantas spokesman confirmed that the airline was'' looking at a range of options, but no decision has been made and we' re not in a position to speculate about what we might do'' .
qantas' guilty plea sends a clear message that those who engage in price fixing and other forms of illegal collusion will pay a heavy price for their crimes ,

after some consideration, qantas decided against the 747f purchase option and instead decided to lease a newer 747 - 400f, which should come on stream by the end of the year. the newer model offers greater range and capacity at improved efficiency, according to brock .
when the agreement was unveiled last year, qantas’ board signaled that it was looking to develop a partnership well beyond interline and codeshare activities. ultimately, they were aiming for integrated network collaboration with coordinated pricing, sales and scheduling as well as a benefit - sharing model .
on 30 september 2010, the jetset travelworld group ltd which comprised of qantas holidays, qantas business travel and the jetset travelworld retail group, completed a merger with stella travel services pty. ltd. the merged company is listed on the australian stock exchange as the jetset travelworld group (jet) and is an integrated travel business operating a number of wholesale (inbound and outbound) travel businesses, a range of franchise based and affiliate retail travel agency networks, an air consolidation and airline representative operation, as well as, corporate travel management services .

law360 (may 8, 2008, 12: 00 am edt) - - a former top - ranking executive of qantas airways ltd. has agreed to plead guilty to his role in a conspiracy among several international airlines to fix rates for air cargo shipments, federal investigators said thursday .
qantas airways (qan) reported a smaller than expected underlying loss of $ 646. 0m for the fy14 and slightly better than forecast sales. bigger than anticipated write - downs and impairments of $ 2. 6bn on its international fleet however led qan to a $ 2. 84bn net loss after tax .
the companies fined in 2010 were air canada, air france - klm, british airways, cargolux, cathay pacific airways, japan airlines, lan chile, martinair, qantas, sas and singapore airlines. a 12th cartel member, lufthansa, and its subsidiary, swiss international air lines, received full immunity from fines .
meanwhile, the other large transformation for qantas took shape at the end of march, when the alliance with emirates became operational. pairing up with the middle eastern carrier created a joint network covering 233 points. for the australian airline, it brought access to 65 destinations in europe, the middle east, north africa and asia .
qantas has already been fined by the us department of justice ($ 65 million), the canadian competition authority ($ 155, 000), the australian competition and consumer commission ($ 20 million), the european commission ($ 12 million) and the new zealand commerce commission ($ 4. 8 million) in relation to the cartel .
all but one of the companies (qantas) subject to the 2010 decision challenged the decision before the eu' s general court. in december 2015, the general court annulled the commission' s decision against the 11 cartel participants that appealed, concluding that there had been a procedural error. however, it did not rule on the existence of the cartel .
for the most part, the carrier’s 747fs go from down under to china and then head across the pacific, the main reason for the airline’s 5 percent share of the china - u. s. airfreight market. initially, this activity was concentrated on shanghai, but in 2012, qantas followed the migration of production to china’s interior and shifted one flight to chongqing .
the reality is, is that yes the alternatives to qantas, being virgin, and the opportunities that they were presenting were attractive ,
he said .
but what we really needed was coverage. we needed the breadth and the depth of service to match the offering that we have nationwide. the addresses that we go to all over australia are vast. and we offer this express post product which is a guaranteed one - day service .
the airline is believed to have entered talks to buy up to four second - hand jumbos - one of which has a sticker price of about $ us60 million. but qantas is yet to commit to a purchase of dedicated freighter aircraft. it is one of several options the airline is considering before the expiry early next year of a contract to lease two 747s and crew - known as a wet lease - from atlas air. a wet lease on another atlas air jumbo is up in 2015 .
in the ongoing downdraft, airlines have been shedding freighters left, right and center. above all, fuel - thirsty older types like the 747 - 400bcf have been pulled out of service as the combination of poor yields and high fuel costs crippled their viability. in this setting, the news that qantas was considering the acquisition of as many as four second - hand 747 - 400 freighters raised quite a few eyebrows when it surfaced in march. so far, the airline has managed with three 747 freighters – all of them leased .
