Qantas was the national carrier until it was privatised in 1992. Much as we like to romanticise Qantas as a symbol of Australia, it is just another large corporation and profits at all costs will always win.

That’s nice and all. But will his replacement actually fix the deep-rooted problems?

From what I understand the new CEO was the former CFO so has actively contributed to said problems.

The replacement’s job isn’t to fix the problems, just to make it seem like they’re doing something.

Probably too late for some of it. From what I’ve read, Joyce has let the competition leap frog then by not keeping up with infrastructure and replacing old planes.

It’s going to require a lot of capital to fix that. Maybe they can just ask the government though.

Heck no. The problems will remain forever, they’ll just be blamed on him after he leaves.
