Andrew Warrender believes airline partnerships play a crucial role in shaping Australia’s domestic aviation landscape.
The Flying Kangaroo bounded past its main domestic rival in June according to the latest BITRE data, with 81.2 per cent of QF-designated services (Qantas and QantasLink) departing on time and 80.4 per cent arriving on time, compared to 78.7 per cent and 78.0 per cent of VA services respectively.
The law firm’s complaint accuses the Flying Kangaroo of breaching privacy laws by failing to take adequate measures to protect the personal information held in its customer database.
The airline called the ruling of the NSW Supreme Court an “important next course of action” but also reiterated that there is still “no evidence” that any data had been released.
The Gulf carrier’s freight arm, which last year moved more than 75,000 tonnes of cargo in and out of Australia, is “most definitely” looking at operating out of WSI after the new airport opens next year, said Australian cargo manager Greg Johnson at a media event in Sydney on Thursday.
Unlike standard international deliveries, which often involve multiple handovers at intermediary hubs, the ‘Sky Courier Express’ model moves parcels like passengers with minimal stops.
