Extracts from the Ansett files, before the towers fell

In the days immediately before the first receivers locked Ansett terminals on the morning of September 14, 2001, before the horror midnight last from Perth to Sydney would unload its passengers, it became clear to everyone, even those who were in the denial, that the airline was in serious crisis.

Ansett was 100% owned by Air New Zealand, which was 25% owned by Singapore Airlines, which had in previous months, saw its intention to raise its equity in Air New Zealand / Ansett entity torpedoed 49% Qantas orchestration by the disapproval of the government in both Canberra and Wellington, on the grounds that it would create an encirclement "juggernaut."

Efforts to counter Singapore Airlines grand designs on Australia and New Zealand was the biggest story of aircraft from jet engines or, more recently, the purchase of Impulse Airlines Qantas which was to become Jetstar in 2004.

Virgin Blue v Singapore girl

During the festivities of Virgin Blue's first birthday in Brisbane and Melbourne in early September 2001 Branson was deprived of two minds on the future of the airline.

He needed cash for other companies in the Virgin Group, including Virgin Mobile in Australia, and seed capital in Virgin Blue has taken root and multiply richer than he had expected in such a short period.

But he was reluctant to sell. In an interview, he said: "Qantas has lost hundreds of millions of dollars to get rid of Impulse. But they can not get rid of us.Whether for easyJet, Ryanair or, or Southwest, or us, is how the vast majority of people want to fly, which is also cheap and cheerfully as possible.

"I told our people that we are building small armies of support throughout Australia. In Adelaide, we made the traffic to the Queensland more than double, and even between Townsville and Brisbane. And we do Tasmanian and ... many other places that we bring to our new jets.

"How come we charge a quarter of some of the other rates, but fly in the Boeing brand new compared to their tired old planes?"

As the pressure increased CEO Gary Toomey Air New Zealand for an agreement to sell the airline Virgin Blue has begun to examine the numbers.

He decided that even if Ansett was losing $ 1 million just a day (which proved much less than the exact amount) the complete elimination of Virgin Blue and its fleet of nine jets and not lower its losses 200 000 per day, which means that more drastic measures had to be scheduled for the airline in need.
