Terminating both Australia-DXB-LHR services at DXB, would I imagine free up 2 A380's which could be used to serve DFW. Terminating QF9/10 but keeping QF 1/2 all the way to LHR would free up 3 A380s'....
I don't believe it has the range?

I reckon SYD-JNB, MEL-HKG and the QF9 part of DXB-LHR will be scrapped and CGK and MNL moved to JQ.

I understand DBX-LHR-DBX is not cost effective as so many people are hopping on EK code shares to other ports. It'd be a sad day to see the QF tail no longer in London.

"There are a series of unsubstantiated and unsourced rumours swirling around ahead of our half year results, ranging from estimates on job losses to route changes.

BACKGROUND
On the specific rumour that Qantas is looking to reduce its services to London, this is inaccurate.
In December, Qantas flagged job cuts of at least 1,000 over the next 12 months in the face of unprecedented pressures in both domestic and international markets.
