AJ throwing his toys out of the cot because the AFR was being mean to him. Gets paid a multi million dollar salary and can't handle criticism

Perhaps Alan will find suitable future opportunities in China or North Korea...

My God - how utterly pathetic.

I still can't believe this is news. Unless and until Alan Joyce leaves Bourke Street I frankly won't believe this alleged "announcement".

It doesn’t matter what you believe. It’s happening.
Although he will be leaving Coward St Mascot not sure where Bourke comes into it.

Haha Bourke St..... Not sure what you believe in now, do you know where Joyce is based or where Qantas is based?

 

[RichardMEL]

I checked. There's a Starbucks in Bourke Street Melbourne. It may be the one that recognises World Platinums - though I'm not ever going near the place to check.

Although there is a Bourke Street in Surry Hills, Sydney - a "funky, cosmopolitan hotbed for aesthetes and the design devou" - perhaps Mr Joyce may spend some time there after he departs QFs Mascot HQ after the AGM in November - but this remains unconfirmed.

Qantas have announced it to the ASX. It's also on their website. Not sure why you are having trouble believing it.

I find it somehow hard to believe Uncle Alan is leaving coward.

Maybe that is so, only time will tell in this instalment of Succession! Regardless I wish Ms. Olivia Wirth the best as new CEO of Qantas come this November. Whoops, looks like my Goyder popped!

That’s why we need coughulative return figures. Hard to find.

Total return won't go any earlier than this unfortunately, but 23 years is a decent sample size.

I think the OP meant (10) Bourke Road, Mascot which is correct.

Interesting figures. Looking at the QAN total return graphs vs the ASX200 total return graph easy to see the contributions of:
- Near monopoly QAN had on domestic traffic (Q4 2001 - 2004)
- GFC (2008)
- Price/capacity war with VA (2011-2017) and ending of this (2018-19)
- Impact of COVID

I think the two big take homes are that, once they settled into a cosy duopoly with VA instead of fighting for market share, huge boost, and that COVID shock will mean that QAN long term return will lag ASX200 for a long time.

Thanks JV. I stand corrected. Apologies to KF88.

For my penance I shall go to the Melbourne Bourke Street starbucks and order a "coffee" drink and imagine I am at LAX.

If you do that, they will only stick around longer. Maybe buy a 7-11 coffee and then sit in Starbucks and drink it instead?

 

[papeto]

Haha the AFR is going for the juggelar with Alan Joyce. Its amazing how spot on Chantileer is in describing the man. Maybe he was an ex- boyfriend well all his customers feel like jilted lovers lol
How low will Alan Joyce go?
How low will Alan Joyce go?

Joe Aston deserves a knighthood for his coverage on this issue.

 

[UP4014]

If a media outlet goes for you, why would you support their business.

Agree
But if a government minister goes for the jugular, why would QF continue CL access for that MP?
