9W also code share with QF for flights from SIN to India, so there is a link there (though QF and OZ codeshare on the SYD/ICN route....so I suppose that this doesn't mean much!)
I wonder if BA would want 9W in though- I think the LHR-India route would be pretty profitable for BA, and 9W now offers a good product on that route.Once they get stronger, it could be tough competition for BA to LHR.
I would like to see one of the Indian airlines get into OW soon though- the current offerings are pretty poor when compared to the *A offerings.
