Qantas to drop Rome?
Saw this message from another forum.
Qantas is in final stage negotiation with Alitalia for a code-share deal. Qantas plans to drop Rome when Alitalia starts daily 772ER service on MXP-KUL-SYD (w/ full traffic right).
Does anyone have more details?

I don't put much faith in the original report at all. Can anyone really see a daily 777 to Milan being profitable? AZ is too highly unionized and saddled with high costs to make it cost effective, with the traditional yields that are on the route. I'm sure they can make better use of the 3 or 4 777's they'd need to operate a daily service down here.
