Wow - nice news!

Wonder how this will effect V Australia. would be great to see the 2 codeshare!

They will be pretty stuffed if they dont.

I mean they will be up against STAR, SKYTEAM & ONEWORLD with no feed at Los Angeles. Not a recipe for success!

I can't find the post, bust wasn't there talk of VA codesharing with NW for domestic routes in the US? If that's the case, with DL and NW now merged, a codeshare with VA between SYD and LAX may be feasible (subject to competition laws, etc.)

The talk with VA/NW was just for interlining, not codeshare.

Though hopefully (for them) they do end up partnering with DL otherwise I cant see htem really lasting on the route.

DL will do fine on the route, its UA that will suffer the most.

Default More competition on the AUS-USA route
Its great to see that there will be more competition on the Australia-USA route rather than just having Qantas, United and V Australia whenever it starts up. When you want to fly to London you have a choice of six airlines you can fly with (Singapore, Cathay, Virgin Atlantic, QF, BA and Emirates) but when you want to fly to the USA you really only have QF and UA and also V Australia if it starts up at the end of February.

For London, there is also JAL (via NRT), SK (Via Asia and CPH; I did NRT CPH and then onto LHR) and no doubt, many more!!!

Add Etihad via Abu Dhabi and Asiana and Korean also if you want to go the long way around on the latter (and there are still more no doubt!)

On topic though, it'll be great to see Delta here, I can't wait myself, and another B77L operator!

This surely puts a nail in the coffin for SQ wanting SYD-LAX
