BA-Qantas merger ditched

 

 

 

 

British Airways and Qantas have failed to agree on terms for a merger.
 
The airlines issued a statement saying that after "detailed discussions" about a potential merger, talks have ended.

"Despite the potential longer term benefits to both British Airways and Qantas, the airlines have not been able to come to agreement over the key terms of a merger at this time," the two companies said.
 

BA and Qantas will continue to work together on their joint business between the UK and Australia and as part of the Oneworld alliance.
