Qantas’ pandemic induced losses continued, with its third straight billion-dollar annual deficit.
The pre-tax loss widened to AUD1.86bn. The pandemic has now cost the airline nearly AUD7bn in combined losses.
“These figures are staggering and getting through to the other side has obviously been tough,” said CEO Alan Joyce.
Joyce said the ‘existential crisis’ of the pandemic is now over.

While domestic has fully recovered, international traffic is still below half of pre-pandemic levels.
