Am I the only one who read Ivan Chu's comment to mean "no F to Australia" in corporate speak?....he was talking to an Australian aviation magazine! Of course he has to say "maybe". You cant just rain on a a parade in front of the home crowd.
His tone certainly didnt sound like it was going to happen any time soon. "In time maybe we will.....BUT....".
My impression was the author was the one presenting the question in the first place! But then, the author titles the headline as clickbait "Cathay open to considering F..." (despite this being the author's own ruminations)....and voila, you suddenly have a 'credible' rumor!
