10 year agreement.
Frankfurt will be dropped. MEL-SIN-LHR and SYD-SIN-LHR will be now via DXB instead.
Changes to fleeting strategy in Asia. SIN and HKG will see better flight timings to suit Asia connections. Increase in flights.
Codeshares with LH, AF, CX will be terminated (Europe side). Only AY remains.
Trans-Tasman code shares possible.
QF agreement with BA will be terminated.
Agreement with BA
No equity investment in the other.
Members of their frequent flyer programme will see equal status on the other.
Nothing about QLD, WA and SA to Europe.

How do you think Changi and SQ would react? Any SQ-talkers affected? Do you think this is good or bad?
Feel free to discuss.
