You dream of starting an airline but you do not know where to start? A 10-year-old boy went straight to the top for advice.

Alex Jacquot, from Australia, decided to write to the Qantas general manager asking him to found a carrier.

"Please, take me seriously," he wrote in his letter to Alan Joyce.

Now, in a widely shared response, Mr. Joyce has offered to meet the budding entrepreneur to "compare notes".

As head of the future airline "Oceania Express", Alex had asked for advice to advance his business.

He assured Chief Qantas that he had started working on a few areas, such as "what types of aircraft I need, flight numbers and catering".

However, he found himself in a loss of knowing how to proceed.

"Since it's school holidays, I have more time to work in. But I have nothing to do (what can I think of). Do you have any idea of ​​what I can do? " he wrote in the letter.

"Seeing you are the CEO of Qantas, I thought I would ask you."

In response, Mr. Joyce thanked Alex for his contact and said he "had heard rumors about another market entrant".

He added that he did not usually give any advice to competitors, but made an exception "because I too was once a young boy so curious about the possibilities of flying and all his possibilities".

Alex told Sydney's 2GB radio station that he was "so excited" after receiving the answer, saying, "I was running around the house for 10 minutes, and I can not believe it. "

His mother told the Australian newspaper that the dates of the meeting were set.
