Partnership with MAS could form key part of Qantas' new international strategy
Malaysia Airlines (MAS) plans to start codesharing with several oneworld carriers, including Qantas, prior to it formally joining the global alliance at the end of 2012. Qantas is sponsoring MAS’ entry into oneworld and sees MAS as a key component to its plan to restore profitability of its long-haul operation although the Australian carrier currently does not serve Malaysia.
