Qantas and JAL the only carriers on Melbourne-Tokyo route Qantas says will respond to regulator’s concerns (Adds Japan Airlines comment)
SYDNEY, May 6 (Reuters) - Australia’s competition regulator said on Thursday it proposed to deny authorisation for a joint business agreement between Qantas Airways Ltd and Japan Airlines Co Ltd (JAL) covering flights between Australia, New Zealand and Japan.
Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) Chairman Rod Sims said such a deal between two key competitors, which would allow them to coordinate fares and schedules, could be authorised only if the public benefits from cooperation outweighed the harm to competition.

Australia may not open border until late 2022: Trade Minister
Australiaâs Trade Minister said the countryâs international borders may not completely open until the second half of 2022, a longer-than-anticipated closure that would be a blow to the airline and tourism industries.
In an interview with Sky News early Friday, Dan Tehan was asked when Australiaâs borders might open. âThe best guess would be in the middle to the second half of next year, but as weâve seen throughout this pandemic things can change, Tehan said, according to audio of the conversation sent by his office.
Australiaâs international borders have been closed since early last year to stem the spread of Covid-19, even though an air-travel bubble with New Zealand opened last month. Delays to the countryâs vaccination programme and the emergence of highly contagious coronavirus mutations, especially in India, are hampering plans to lift travel rest

(Reuters) - Singapore Airlines Ltd said on Monday it had raised about S$2 billion ($1.50 billion) through sale-and-leaseback deals for 11 of its planes to help bolster liquidity as it grapples with the pandemic-related plunge in travel.
The airline said it would continue to explore other ways to raise liquidity after reaching deals with four parties over seven Airbus SE A350-900s and four Boeing Co 787-10s.
Rivals such as Cathay Pacific Airways Ltd and Qantas Airways Ltd have done similar deals during the pandemic.
