OK, being OZ I'll jump into this, it is QANTAS there is no 'U' in it. It is not a word it is an abbreviation meanng

Queensland
And
Northern
Territory
Aerial
Services

And it is the oldest airline in the english speaking world and the second oldest in the world behind KLM.

Personally I find the service QANTAS to stand up to the other abbrevations widely used down here

Quick
And
Nasty
Typically
Australian
Service

They do have a BKK crew base of Thai nationals, so there are a few Thai's onboard, but you would better off using SQ via SIN or EK via DXB.
