The Australian Competition & Consumer Commission (ACCC) is concerned about a proposed alliance between Qantas and China Eastern Airlines. The ACCC has opposed the alliance in its draft ruling, arguing that the two carriers would dominate the Sydney-Shanghai route. ACCC chairman Rod Sims says he would be more willing to support an alliance between Qantas and carriers such as China Southern or Air China, as Qantas does not currently have flights to their main hubs
