British Airways and Qantas war splits Miranda Kerr and Orlando Bloom Miranda Kerr and Orlando Bloom arrive for the 2013 Vanity Fair Oscar Party. THE war between former airline collaborators Qantas and British Airways has split celebrity couple Miranda Kerr and Orlando Bloom. Last week Kerr took to the runway to show off Qantas's new uniforms. This week British Airways announced that Bloom is on their side. It all started in September when Qantas and British Airways separated and Qantas hooked up with Emirates. That ended Qantas and BA's 17-year-long relationship. Since then British Airways have hooked up with Cathay, announced revamped planes flying to Australia and hosted a high tea with Georgia May Jagger on board. But now they've got Orlando. Qantas CEO Alan Joyce said he wasn't concerned by British Airways coup. "We're not going to marry British Airways with Qantas to keep the couple together," Qantas CEO Alan Joyce said. We tried that before and it didn't work. British Airways are yet to comment on the drama. That may be because it is still the middle of the night in London.
