“All of our frequent flyers in Australia and New Zealand will be offered $50 towards a Qantas return flight, which equates to many millions in discounts.”

“In addition to saying sorry, we also want to say thank you,” Joyce said.
“We are investing in a variety of initiatives including status extensions for silver frequent flyers and above, thousands of Qantas points and lounge passes.
