I think you will find they will keep Travolta as an ambassador but have Webber as another ambassador as well. Just like Cathy Freeman is an ambassador, as is Kieran Perkins etc... I think this is just another addition to the Qantas stable to promote certain areas that Qantas supports.
I would find it extremely hard to believe they would cut ties with Travolta. Alex.
