CAA HAVE RECEIVED A FILING (DATED 11 MAY) OF THE NEW HONG KONG
AUSTRALIA FARES PACKAGE AGREED BETWEEN CPA AND QANTAS. THE FILING
WAS COPIED TO DCA HONG KONG.
THE INTENDED EFFECTIVE DATE OF THE NEW FARES IS 1 JUNE 1979.
I DO NOT KNOW IF YOU DISCUSSED THIS WHEN YOU WERE IN HONG KONG BUT
IN THE ABSENCE OF ANY ADVICE ON THIS I HAVE TOLD PAICE, CAA THAT I
DO NOT SEE HOW WE COULD POSSIBLY AGREE TO THE FILING AND PARTICULARLY
THE IMPLEMENTATION DATE IN ADVANCE OF YOUR DISCUSSIONS WITH THE
AUSTRALIANS IN CANBERRA. THIS OF COURSE WRTUALLY RULES OUT IMPLEMENTATION ON 1 JUNE, WHICH IN ANY EVENT THE AUSTRALIANS WOULD PROBABLY NOT BE HAPPY ABOUT IN VIEW OF WHAT WAS SAID AT
THE KUALA LUMPUR TALKS ABOUT AUSTRALIA ASEAN FARES.
I HAVE PUT THE PAPERS TO YOU BY BAG TO CANBERRA.
IF YOU AGREE THAT CAA SHOULD HOLD THEIR HAND WILL YOU PLEASE SAY.
THEY ARE A LITTLE CONCERNED ABOUT DOING NOTHING WITH THE FILING
BECAUSE OF THE CLOSENESS OF THE INTENDED IMPLEMENTATION DATE.
