— AviationAddiction (@AviateAddict) 17 Décembre 2013Oneworld alliance members Cathay Pacific and Qatar Airways have formed a strategic alliance on the route between their respective hubs Hong Kong and Doha starting 30 March.
While this is not immediately relevant to most Australian travellers, it is a reminder in terms of trade links of the importance of Hong Kong as a major capital raising market and the phenomenal growth of the Middle East economies.
The joint statement says Cathay Pacific will operate its service with an Airbus A330-300. The fleet choice of Qatar Airways has not been given, but the possibilities include A330s and Boeing 777s at this stage.
The aviation route maps are being redrawn, and as Airbus and Boeing have both acknowledged in their rolling 20 year commercial forecasts, the Asia Pacific and Middle East markets are the big movers in orders for the very latest in aviation technology, and the efficiency advantages this brings to their airlines.
Both Qatar Airways and Cathay Pacific intended deploying their new airliners on their respective routes to this country well before the end of this decade. Expect to see Qatar A350s and possibly A380 in coming years, as well as the transition of Cathay Pacific services to A350s.
Note also that Doha and Hong Kong are respectively emerging and mature hubs in terms of beyond city links to Europe from Australia, as well as each carrier’s obvious strengths in their regions.
Airbus said Qatar's A380 had been delayed as the airline had been very "demanding" in its specifications. The carrier found fault in the texturing of the paint, the interior cabin decor foils, which are similar to wallpaper, and the jet's non-textile floors, which are prevalent in the galley area. Those large galley structures now have to be removed to lay new flooring in a time-consuming process.

Et ça impose de démonter les galleys !
Ca sera réglé en fin d'année
Bon courage pour les A350 à livrer cette année également !
Pas de 787-9 et -10 complémentaire
Pas d'affermissement de la commande de 777-9 pour ce salon
