I hate to say it but I am sure I am not the only one to thinking it though - Quantas has been making big withdrawels from their luck account over the passed few years - one day they are going to run out.........
I believe Qantas has some corporate issues re. maintenance with everything that's been going on with them recently.

I very much doubt this is volcano related. Iceland is far away ;-)
