Cathay & Virgin Australia tie-up

http://www.aspireaviation.com/2012/0...e-distraction/


An interesting tie-up for Virgin Australia, in Aspire Aviation‘s opinion, would be Hong Kong-based Cathay Pacific Airways’ wholly-owned subsidiary Dragonair. First of all, Cathay Pacific has a very strong operation to Hong Kong with a 8.4% year-over-year growth in passengers number to/from Australia ending May 2012. Moreover, codesharing with Cathay Pacific on Hong Kong-Sydney route and Dragonair from Hong Kong-China routes would grant instant access to many secondary Chinese destinations that are unmatched even by Singapore Airlines and SilkAir.

What do you think?

QANTAS will be angry!
