11/6/09 WHO declares Phase 6 pandemic alert. GENEVA (Reuters) - The World Health Organisation declared an influenza pandemic on Thursday and called on governments to prepare for a long-term battle against an unstoppable flu virus. The United Nations agency raised its pandemic flu alert to phase 6 on a six-point scale, indicating the first influenza pandemic since 1968 is under way.

If this is really the case, then we have another option than AirAsia. Nevertheless, AirAsia has been offering a good deal to Australia. KUALA LUMPUR, June 9 (Bernama) -- Australian budget airline Jetstar Airways, a subsidiary of Qantas Airways Ltd, is looking at making a comeback to Kuala Lumpur, according to chief executive officer Alan Joyce. Jetstar withdrew its Sydney to Kuala Lumpur service in September last year due to the high fuel prices. "Jetstar would be keen on a comeback at some stage. We withdrew the Kuala Lumpur service to grow the Japanese operation," he told reporters on the sidelines of the 65th International Air Transport Association (IATA) annual general meeting (AGM), here today. Asked when Jetstar may make the comeback, Joyce said: "It depends on the economic environment and when an aircraft is available. It is not an immediate plan, but something that Jetstar would like to do in the future." Via Bernama

MILAN (AP) - AC Milan star Kaka's future appeared to be leaning toward Real Madrid on Wednesday after Chelsea denied it made any attempt to hijack a euro65 million ($92 million) deal tabled by the Spanish powerhouse. Milan vice president Adriano Galliani was in Madrid late Tuesday to finalize the deal, along with Kaka's father-manager Bosco Leite, Italian sports dailies La Gazzetta dello Sport and Corriere dello Sport reported on Wednesday. After four hours of meetings with Madrid president Florentino Perez, a deal was reached in which Kaka would get euro9.5 million ($13.5 million) a season for five years, Gazzetta said. Reports soon emerged suggesting that Chelsea had countered Madrid's offer by bidding 73.5 million pounds (euro85 million; $120 million) while offering him 10 million pounds (euro11.6 million; $16.4 million) per year in wages after tax.
