Exports to QATAR, while not as big, are significantly bigger than our imports from QATAR.

All the figures from Trading economics.

It may be complex to track. It may be going through other markets first, like refined oil/petroleum processed in Singapore then comes to Australia and we aren't aware where the oil originatesAnyone know the numbers off the top of their head re: how much oil etc australia gets from qatar vs the emirates? @Smurf1976 ?
Stock's bounced on the news too
Directly most of our imports come in the form of refined products from Singapore, South Korea, India, Malaysia and China. Plus lesser amounts from various others.Anyone know the numbers off the top of their head re: how much oil etc australia gets from qatar vs the emirates? @Smurf1976 ?
Yeah, not something the public are really going to know very well. Qantas doesn't peel off to the UAE on either of its kangaroo routes/to europe (it's either via singapore with the A380 or perth with the 787) so that kind of ruled that direct fuel provision question out.To what extent that influences the politics around national airlines I'm not sure.
The flying kangaroo has apparently lost its bounce.It's amazing how much of a breath of fresh air, clears the smell of a blocked toilet.
Qantas to finally move to main Perth Airport hub
After years of fractious negotiations, the flying kangaroo will move its main Perth operations to Airport Central, where it will construct a new WA headquarters.www.watoday.com.au
That would be fine, excepts everything about its fare selling software screams you are buying a seat on a particular flight.Qantas disputes the notion that customers are buying tickets for a particular flight, as it blamed its booking systems and the “sheer scale” of travel changes for it selling flights that had already been cancelled.
In its statement of defence filed with the Federal Court, Qantas said the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission’s case hinges on a definition of the “services” that Qantas supplies.
“The ACCC contends that Qantas supplies carriage on ‘particular flights’. Qantas disputes this. The ‘service’ that Qantas supplies is not carriage on any ‘particular flight’ but rather a bundle of rights that includes alternative options to which consumers are entitled in respect of a cancelled flight,” the airline told the Federal Court.
It is quite disgraceful behaviour from Goyder here at the Qan AGM. Attending for a friend.Watched some of the AGM today and questions from shareholders were shut down.
Not flying QAN again unless absolutely necessary.

I find it ironic that Todd Sampson - a Guru in marketing and brand management - is on the Qantas board and has started to kill his own brand in the public eye. Todd has been there for the disintegration of the Qantas brand. So why would anyone want to hire him again? Clearly investors not too keen on him these days.Watched some of the AGM today and questions from shareholders were shut down.

I guess that's not the one that won him an Archibald. That red tail fin, lol.it is the captured view of a plane on approach
some truth there!I guess that's not the one that won him an Archibald. That red tail fin, lol.
They're all drunks in my limited experience.
Pointless, the money's just going straight into the pockets of the c suite & board.Ill say with the prices I'm paying for Qantas flights I'm tempted to put all my money in their shares.
