Whilst I regularly read of the public's dismay at Qantas being provided with $2bn (AUD) during Covid and not providing an ongoing service to repatriate Australians caught overseas, I read an article in the last few days that indicated United* received $54bn USD in government assistance to continue operating across the world, including Australia. It's hard to compete with that…..
*United was one of a number of US companies that received similar, substantial assistance.
