| Background | |
| British Airways is one of the world's leading scheduled international premium airlines, carrying around 33 million passengers worldwide to 148 destinations. Also, one of the world's longest established airlines, it has always been regarded as an industry-leader. Our principal place of business is Heathrow airport, one of the world's premier hubs, which serves a large geographical area with a comparatively high proportion of point to point business. We also operate a worldwide air cargo business, largely in conjunction with our scheduled passenger services. The British Airways network generates economic value by meeting the demand for business travel, by offering vital arteries for trade and investment, as well as providing leisure travel opportunities for individuals and families. In August 2009, British Airways celebrated its 90th anniversary. The airline has carried more than 1.2 billion customers on its extensive network, and is recognised as one of the world's elite carriers. In 1993, Qantas and British Airways entered into a comprehensive joint marketing agreement and have integrated operations in Bangkok as an extension of their wide-ranging alliance. Qantas Airways is widely regarded as one of the world's leading long distance airlines and one of the strongest brands in Australia. Today Qantas offers daily service from Bangkok to Sydney and London. From Sydney, Qantas offers easy connections to cities across Australia and New Zealand. | |
