What alternatives should he contemplate and what should he do? The history of Qantas Early years Qantas started in 1920 in Winton in outback Queensland ts Queerland and Northern Terry Aer Services! Berwcen 126 and 128 te operated eight srerafe ou of hangerin outback Longreach In 934i merged wih eth fim Imperial Airays to frm Qantas Empie Airways (QEA) From 1935 few internationally Singapore, and then brely provided a servis to Southampton ithe UK ‘his stopped in 1942 veh the alo Singapore in World ‘War Il Aer the war the company was anal! under Chie Sine it begun the fureay service to London elled the Kangavo ro lying wo South ‘Alien ad then Novth America In 1954 tee the Brish Queen Elizabeth ard her husband 1 Ausaia and the Labor government. Using an L749 Constellation and soon after be ar began flying twice weekly to San Francisco via Fiji, Canton Island and Hawaii. By 1956 it had 34 propeller driven aircraft and used them to carry a record number of passengers to the Melbourne Olympic Games. In the same year it entered the jet age, ordering seven Boeing 707-318 jedliners at a cust of $38 million By now Qantas was established as a world airline snd in 1958 this was demonstrated literally when wo Superconstellation aircraft took off of a round the world service. One flew via India and the other via the USA, They took six days co cizcumnavigete the globe. Its leet expanded rapidly and by 1964, 13 ofthe Boeing 707 aireraft \were in action and by 1966 it had 18. Hudson Fysh retired as Chairman in 1966 as did CEO Cedric Turner. hey were by Captain Ritchie as CEO and Roland Wilson {also Governor of the Reserve Bank) as Chairman, Jn 1966 it updated its eet with the larger 707-338C seties Boeings and in December that year opened the Tussiry Wentworth Hotel in central Sydney, adjacent to headquarters Inthe late 1960s it rook the strategic decision to buy bigger aircraft as the basis of the fleet bur carefully decided to buy the second series of the giant Boeing 747 rather than the frst. These were in action by late 1971 and, using the increased capacity fares the era of cheap ar tavel had begun. The record for numbers ina single airraft was established in 1974 when 8 747 carried 673 people out of Darwin alter eyelone Tracy had fattened the city. Qantas finished wil 1079 and at that stage had the worlds only 747 flet, with 17 ‘of them. Ic also started Business Class in that year, a world first. It did not add a new type of aircraft tothe fleet until 1985 when the Being 767-238 ER (for extended range’) was introduced. I then added supplemented 747-438 aircraft 10 the flet. replaced Qantas started to offer lower Privatisation and the aftermath The Australian government sold its domestic carrier Australian Airlines to Qantas in 1992 and then announced the whole group would be privatised. In March 1998 this th Airways (BA) taking 2 25 per cent share, The rest of the float (of shares) followed and the public took advantage of the opportunity and ASLS billion svas raised. In the end, Qantas was 55 per cent Australian ‘owned, just over the 51 per cent required by law 17 1994 Qantas increased capacity In 1998 it started the Oneworld alliance with American Airlines, British Airways, Canadian Airlines and Cathay Pacific, and in 1999 Finnair and Iberia joined, The alliance is an arrangement where airlines agree wo share departure lounges, frequent Ayer pind jin booking of fights so that the traveller hi happened with B veSrama ir the-dorictc market came soon afer deregulation of the market when the big competitor, Ansett, CASE 5 QANTAS IN THE GLOBAL AIRLINE INDUSTRY, MARCH 2010 ‘went on strike in 20098 The background to this was the continved downsizing of Qantas. An announcement in 2005 by then CEO Geoff Dixon thar Qantas would ‘outsource up ro 7000 jobs overseas frightened the unions since this was associated with outsourcing of significant IT work and some maintenance work? (to Lufthansa which has an excellent safety record) In 2009 ie said another 1750 jobs might go across the group! I is therefore probable ‘that there will be more industrial uneest i the fature. This has already cost Qantas: Apart from lost revenue from cancellation of mote than 300 lights during the ten-week standoff between maintenance unions and management, Qanas lost Air New Zealand, which has transitioned’ out ‘of maintenance contracts with Qantas and is instead going 10 use the Cathay Pacife maintenance people in Sys Qantas is exceptionally well branded as she spire of AUNT and MAST Sens of very wel aceeed TV acheter onthe tr ll sppored ddmestealy az Talservice sieline and in international travel as the Australian airline. It remains one of the world’s most proficable airlines, even though in mid-2009 hanagement predicted that profits would fall to as low as ‘AS100 million, down from an earlier estimate of ASSO zillion.” In comparison, the financial year 2008 yielded profits of ASI billion. Part of this was canny strategy by EXHIBIT 1 Qantas balance sheets as at 20 une 2008 436 126604 CEO Dixon who had locked in jer-fuel prices via hedging contracts at around half che going price in 2008. In response tothe 2009 financial risis Qantas has grounded 10 aircraft and has told Boeing that it will defer orders for 737-4 aircraft for up to year and also delay the delivery of| 15 new 787 Dreamliners British Airways (BA) and Qantas underwent lengthy: merger talks in late 2008 The two were, at frst glance, ‘well matched. In December 2008, BA had 245 aircraft and Qantas 224; BA had 45140 employees and Qantas 37000; BA revenue was AS202 billion and Qantas ASIB6 billion, and pre-tax profit for BA was $205 billion and Qantas A$L+ billion, BA had sold a 25 per cent holding in Qantas as recently as 2004 and knows the aieline well. The advantages of the proposed merger were basically in the economies of scale available in buying and flying aircraft, joint IT and joine frequent flyer schemes. Despite these promising indications, difficulties in the negotiations meant that it did not proceed and Qantas executives said they were ‘kicking the tyres'of various airlines withthe idea of possible mergers. ww CEO Joyce said that instead of a merger, Ques weld aon “on core businaksn ordre ‘Et Through the economic ersis® Qantas balance sheets from the 2008 annual report provide devails of its nancial position."
