QF vs Perth Airport

I see in today's Pravda Propaganda (formally know as the Pyongyang Peoples Liberation News) that this dispute has again been deferred to 2020 in WA's Supreme Court...I would like to know how much QF is spending on Legal Fee's, probably upwards of $2 million, a cost that is not easily absorbed by the Company...
I would like to also know why, if QF management has an issue with "monopoly" airport corporations (Perth/ Canberra etc), then why we have sold back the Brisbane/ Melbourne/ Sydney terminals.....
KPI's before schedule before safety....

I laugh when I see Tino La Spiv refer to the airports as been monopoly business charging as they like. What is Qantas Tino? Keep capacity tight domestically and charge obscene fares and let’s not even mention regional fares. Kettle calling the pot black.

Kevin Brown and Alan Joyce = a match made in heaven

You have two issues here; the CEO of Perth airport and the CEO of Qantas. They both have ambitions of being super wealthy and both preside over monopolies; Qantas is part of an Australian duopoly and Perth airport is a monopoly.

Both CEO’s will do anything to raise their profit base which translates into larger financial bonuses for themselves and it tickles their ego’s. An arrogant Irishman and an arrogant Scotsman. Both are narcissists with an addiction to greed that comes at any and every cost. It is ironic that they both bag each other out for being money grabbers when the reality, quite simply put, is that both organisations are about squeezing as much as possible out of each other, and then some. Joyce comes from a pithy little Ansett background and Brown comes from the dysfunctional Cairns airport, which has now mostly been fixed by an intelligent CEO. Both have fallen into roles that require little foresight - just charge heaps in fees, fares and charges and reap the profits. A street busker could run both organisations and make a profit. Both are ‘money for jam’ businesses.

Well if sunrise doesn't happen, QF needs this dispute to be sorted if they want more flights to Europe out of PER.
