There has been a mixed reaction to the departure of the airline CEO, with hopes the national carrier can now regroup after a tumultuous period.
While the airline's chairman praised Joyce for always putting Qantas "front and centre", one trade union leader described his 15 years in the top job as "brutal".
It followed the revelation Qantas Group was holding around $550 million in unused flight credits from cancelled flights during the pandemic which were due to expire in December.In a bid to stem the mounting criticism and PR disaster, Qantas said it was scrapping the expiry date on flight credits. Australian Council of Trade Unions president Michele O'Neil said Joyce pushed up company profits at the expense of workers' salaries.
