It isn’t a joke, Joyce. Alan Joyce has been the chief executive of Qantas for the last 13 years, and has just faced down the biggest challenges of his career.Geez, Alan, talk about “This is your captain speaking we can expect some turbulence ahead!” Commercial aviation has never seen disruption like the last 18 months. Have you been frantic dealing with it? Or like the rest of us, all dressed up with nowhere to fly to?It’s been crazy. I’ve been in the aviation industry now for 33 years.
For international, yes, unless there are certified medical reasons or children, which is no different from what happened with yellow fever. Domestically, it is going to be subject to public health orders. Victoria and NSW are saying that they will only allow vaccinated people to travel. We think Western Australia will have it as a requirement, and we think other states will follow suit. That may change when we get to 90 per cent, like it will for restaurants and pubs.
But doesn’t the idea of Qantas insisting that only double-jabbed people get on the plane make you “segregationist fascists, with no interest in freedom and sell-out bastards to boot”?No. First of all, it’s going to be government requirements. And then secondly, we all have a duty of care. I have a duty of care, first of all, to my employees and customers.
“OK, what are they?” Says the man to the doctor. The doctor says “Well, first there’s engineer brain, that’s $100 a gram. Then there’s astrophysicist brain, that’ll cost you $200 a gram. Finally, there’s anti-vaxxer brain. That’s the most expensive at $1000 a gram.” The man looks at the doctor, surprised. “That’s absurd! Why is the anti-vaxxer brain so expensive? “The doctor turns to him and says “Sir, do you have any idea how
Peter_Fitz Hey! Before you jump on board, please watch this travel advisory at
Peter_Fitz No more government money though . Health care will need it as peole flood in with the virus and no quarantine
Peter_Fitz Qantas has lobbied for ‘let it rip’ from the very beginning. But Joyce is protected. He’s not on the frontline and he’s not worrying about his children getting infected. Anyway, flying in a pandemic is just asking for Covid.
Peter_Fitz I will never fly with this airline
MikeCarlton01 Peter_Fitz 'We just want our jobs back' : 2000 Illegally outsourced Qantas ground crew.
MikeCarlton01 Peter_Fitz The leprechaun is interested in one thing and one thing only MONEY. All you simple people literally make me sick. Wake up money does nothing if you don't have your health, food, water, a safe place to live. First world people aren't smarter than others, dumb luck is it!
Peter_Fitz 'I want my bonus'
Peter_Fitz You are no longer the Spirit of Australia. Left other to get Aussies home & now this
Peter_Fitz Hundreds of billions given to Qantas to protect jobs, then they promptly sack 20,000 workers. Yeah, they've got your back Australia auspol australian AustraliaHasFallen
Peter_Fitz To where.... many countries are affected by 4th 5th wave of covid.
Peter_Fitz 24 mill a year...joke😡
MikeCarlton01 Peter_Fitz Nice interview Fitzy
MikeCarlton01 Peter_Fitz Pass…… 🖕🏼
Peter_Fitz And you got billions from us, the taxpayers. So you should drop your exorbitant fares! 😂😂😂😂 I forgot who I was talking too, a greedy billionaire.
Peter_Fitz He doesn’t care about Australia or Australians. Proven that over & over ! It’s all about the buck$ with this one ! 🪰 spreading disease with greatest of ease’🪰
Peter_Fitz By gouging or customers
Peter_Fitz Qatar has been flying Aussies in and out of Australia the past 18 months they haven’t stopped and kept routes like DOH ADL going. I know who I’ll be supporting
Peter_Fitz From a guy who took millions of taxpayers money, then a slightly reduced his salary for a few months last year then sacked plenty of people. What a guy.
Peter_Fitz The only incentive Joyce provided, one that mattered to me , was his response to Covid.Don't recall him offering to bring Australians home at the start.He certainly has influence over the PM,seemingly focused on corporate interests. I doubt that I would fly this venture again.
Peter_Fitz Well. If sitting on the ground lost billions.. surely the WANTArse needs new leadership. To be sure, to be sure… 🤔🤔🤔IStandWithTWU
Peter_Fitz Way too many times I'm reminded of this...
Peter_Fitz The real reason Gladys let it rip?
Peter_Fitz
Peter_Fitz If we never heard from Alan Joyce and Margy Osmond again it would be too soon
Peter_Fitz We? I don’t think you lost a thing mate.
Peter_Fitz I don’t know anything about this guy but………………………….. he looks like a real jerk
Peter_Fitz Should all Australians get shares in mining companies that we give money to ? What about land we paid 10 times to much for do we all own that too can I use Sturt Robert’s internet we paid for it and I would like to have a weekend at Kirribilli we paid for it LNPDisgrace
Peter_Fitz If your company has no authority to check the G2G doc's of your passengers (man flies syd melb hob) test +, that is incentivising enough for me to say NO! Plus you stole my FFP's.....qantas
Peter_Fitz just as well they waited for government guarantees
Peter_Fitz I only ever fly qantas when there is no alternative.
Peter_Fitz You sat de planes on de ground before. When you did dat you should’ve changed the Qantas theme from Still Call Australia Home to Leaving on a jet plane … don’t know when I’ll be back again. Or I still call Australia Home even though I source engineers & maintenance off shore…
Peter_Fitz always wondering right up till the link opens up - who in the hell's it going to be? Keep us guessing - they're great.
Peter_Fitz Never fly your airline , the way u treat your workers ? Shame on u
Peter_Fitz It has been people like Alan Joyce pushing Perrottet to ramp up the opening up We should not be being guided by the wants of people like him
Peter_Fitz Alan can shut his mouth about the 'need' for his company to get in the air ASAP...
Peter_Fitz Looking at flight costs currently you’d need to be cashed up ! They should do a discount fare for the arts sector who’ve done it so hard and now need to tour nationally & internationally to try and recoup ! Bands, musos, actors etc
Peter_Fitz Maybe start by not discriminating against who can fly based on personal medical decisions. Fwits.
Peter_Fitz But only if vaccinated? Right Mr ANAL JOYce? Quite ironic, that QantASS discriminates against a minority, when this flog has whined about discrimination against butt bandits, and tried to ruin people’s lives for what he considers to be discrimination against them, in the past.
Peter_Fitz just make prices reasonable and not as extortion like you do now would be a start….
Peter_Fitz 'Imcentivising'?🤣 Is that a weasel word for encouraging?
Peter_Fitz I can’t remember the last time I flew Qantas, it would have been decades though! They have been propped up by the taxpayer during covid, if they are so desperate for passengers, perhaps drop their ticket prices to match the other airlines.
Peter_Fitz No doubt AT ANY COST! Covid19AUS auspol
Peter_Fitz He got a pay rise though didn't he?
Peter_Fitz I won’t fly for leisure for the time being. What happen if I get sick oversea?
Peter_Fitz And the employees who's jobs you outsourced want their them back!
Peter_Fitz Dog grant that I live long enough to see this amadán taken down a peg or three.
Peter_Fitz Yes, don't worry about the well-being of the population, we want to make money.
Peter_Fitz The amount of money that the public Taxpayers have gifted Qantas we should be part owners JoshFrydenberg SaySorryJosh VoicesofKooyong insiders Australia
Peter_Fitz When I met with Alan and he presented his border opening plan. I couldn't refuse. Scomo is just to slow.
Peter_Fitz 'Losing billions' says the man that got billions from Australian taxpayers.
Peter_Fitz Incentivising. I hate the word. Corporate tug talk.
Peter_Fitz You can start by giving back my money you still have from cancelled flights. U take in a blink and tell me 6-8 weeks to refund a flight
Peter_Fitz Duh, ya think?
sportstradingau Peter_Fitz And you can return all the sacked workers and get rid of the contractors you replaced them with.
Peter_Fitz Losing bonuses and perks. Govt must start high speed trains between capital cities will increase work and tourism. Spending too much time on travel, money, less luaguage and not viable solution.
Peter_Fitz Strange how the elite climate change activists are pushing to get flights in the air ASAP. All the Glasgow elites flying to discuss how to cut emissions. Hypocrites!! ScottMorrisonMP LiberalAus OneNationAus SkyNewsAust RossCameron4 pm_live catherine___c rowandean
Peter_Fitz Seat 23A: Double jabbed, infected, carrying high viral load Seat 23B: Passenger on his way to visit mom in aged care home Seat 23C: Empty. Was booked by non-infected healthy but unvaxxd person QANTAS TrustTheScience SuperSpreader
Peter_Fitz Creepy
Peter_Fitz Nope.....
Peter_Fitz Dirty polluting industry. We need a $10,000 pollution tax on every ticket the aviation industry sells.
Peter_Fitz I've not flown with Qantas since 2005 and I won't be again.
Peter_Fitz You can start by returning all my frequent flyer points .I had 2 flights booked in last 18 months I couldn't take . You have my money, I have a credit voucher but you still took away peoples frequent flyer points.greedy jokejoyce nothappyjan givethemback
Peter_Fitz O K. How about returning all those FF Points that I’d been accumulating to use for upgrades. That would incentivise me into an already-too-expensive Qantas seat, instead of the Emirates or Singapore Airlines planes I have flown on my last 4 flights to Europe.
Peter_Fitz Make no mistake. This is a QANTAS led 'reopenning'. The ditching of quarantine was a high Qantas priority. Profits over health has been Mr Joyce's position throughout the entire psndanic. (oh, and screwing Qantas workers)..
Peter_Fitz Free mile high club membership will do it
Peter_Fitz I should hope so, after all the tax payer money they’ve been given over the last 24 months.
Peter_Fitz Can I have my FF status back then? 😉
