Despite a Troubled Near-Term, Qantas Will Fly Again
Business Strategy and Outlook
The COVID-19 pandemic continues to wreak havoc on the global airline industry. Lockdowns, border restrictions, and social distancing measures have clipped Qantas' wings. Stringent Australian entry requirements for international arrivals and a ban on noncitizen, nonpermanent resident arrivals have decimated passenger revenue, and despite aggressive cost-cutting, we expect operating deleverage to lead to aftertax losses in 2021.
