With the AICD as the facilitator.Directors on one board looking after mates on another board. Stuff-ups or competence and damage done are ignored.
ummmm , i might be wrong but didn't QAN ( and other major airlines ) hedge ( forward buy ) their fuelUntil the mud hits the fan, and when it becomes unbearable, every man for himself.
Politics aside, POO, jet fuel and a low Aussie isn't helping....tough times for the flying kangaroo.
will be interesting to see where Richard goes next , he had a reasonable reputation before that appointmentQantas shareholders demand chairman Richard Goyder's resignation as investors place rest of board on notice
The Australian Shareholders' Association (ASA) said Mr Goyder's time as Qantas chairman needed to end in the wake of the ACCC's legal action over ghost flights, a High Court ruling over illegally sacked workers, and the fallout from the airline's final multi-million dollar payout to former CEO Alan Joyce.
Qantas shareholders demand Richard Goyder quit as chairman as 'more things come to light' about management decisions
The Australian Shareholders' Association has joined the growing chorus of calls demanding Qantas's chairman Richard Goyder resign from his position, and has placed the rest of the airline's board on notice after weeks of scandals.www.abc.net.au
Interestinigly I saw on the Idiot Box news tonight, that the much loved bespeckled garden gnome will not be having to front up to the QaQtas inquiry.The AFR reports this morning that QANTAS pilots through their Union have no confidence in Goyder as Chairman.
It is always good to see those leading from the front ... leading from the front.
Meanwhile the Industry Superannuation Funds back Goyder to the hilt.

probably travelling in a cargo plane so he can take all his loot with him ( especially after his previous outbursts on baggage handlers )Interestinigly I saw on the Idiot Box news tonight, that the much loved bespeckled garden gnome will not be having to front up to the QaQtas inquiry.
Reason given Pressing overseas engagement.
BS.
I wonder if he is travelling on the airline he has virtually demolished, and if so will the pilots abort the take-off with him on board?????
most of them , is my guessI would like to see the enquiry on QAN demand to see the list of names on the Chairmans lonuge at QAN.
How many of these "supporters" he quotes have their snouts in the trough having been granted access to the Chairmans Lounge?

I'm sure they hedge, but how far in advance can they do that? 3 months, 6 months and with rocketing fuel price, it'll still be more expensive...and jet fuel is ?? 10, 20 times more expensive than our petrol (that's my understanding, they're higher grade too)....ummmm , i might be wrong but didn't QAN ( and other major airlines ) hedge ( forward buy ) their fuel
and when discovered sparked the 'fuel surcharge scandal '
but my memory might be getting faulty
reputation damage is a big problem at QAN , that might be the toughest test for the new CEO ( unless the aging fleet starts crashing )
If you are buying a minimum of 1 million litres a year, Jet A1 at the capital city airports is currently around USD0.87 cents per litre or 1.36 in AUD terms. Not sure if this includes any taxes, I suspect it does, as the IATA quotes world average prices being in a similar rangeI'm sure they hedge, but how far in advance can they do that? 3 months, 6 months and with rocketing fuel price, it'll still be more expensive...and jet fuel is ?? 10, 20 times more expensive than our petrol (that's my understanding, they're higher grade too)....
Looks cheaper when we look at it like that. Not sure how it's delivered and stored. I have the impression they fuel up on the tarmac (as was announced once or twice when we were late taking off) I can't imagine the planes going to a different depot like us going to petrol stations to fill up....maybe they do? There might be hidden charges that we don't see?If you are buying a minimum of 1 million litres a year, Jet A1 at the capital city airports is currently around USD0.87 cents per litre or 1.36 in AUD terms.

Pretty cheap compared to diesel.

Pretty cheap more like excessively cheap. Diesel here today $2.21 a litreIf you are buying a minimum of 1 million litres a year, Jet A1 at the capital city airports is currently around USD0.87 cents per litre or 1.36 in AUD terms.

heres a chart of Jet A1 over the past twenty years.Pretty cheap more like excessively cheap. Diesel here today $2.21 a litre
Regardless of the name of the facility, the Qantas chairman has nothing to do with the membership. The procedure for membership if fairly straight forward and rigid (except for Albanese the younger). The members know this and would not feel beholden to him and I would suggest the overwhelming majority would be judging him on his lack of performance as we are here. Members are members regardless of who is chairman.I would like to see the enquiry on QAN demand to see the list of names on the Chairmans lonuge at QAN.

however the former CEO implied something different between the longstanding CEO and some lounge members , but i suppose we will never find out if special topics were discussed in 'the lounge 'Regardless of the name of the facility, the Qantas chairman has nothing to do with the membership.

Respectfully young non city male, but there is a difference between the QANTAS lounge and the Chairmans lounge.Regardless of the name of the facility, the Qantas chairman has nothing to do with the membership.

I thought that $hit was only the domain of the coalition. LolRespectfully young non city male, but there is a difference between the QANTAS lounge and the Chairmans lounge.
There are a number of comments above about the procedure for being "invited" to the Chairmans lounge.
There is a quick explanation of the difference Here
I will leave it there.
