Capt Christie and others wanted to continue flying, but if my memory is correct they wanted to continue on the 747-400. QF argued successfully in Court that they could not utilise them due to the type of flying the 400 did.
There are about 20-25 Captains with QF who are 60+ flying the 737, 767, A330 domestically in Australia and to NZ.
Bali comes under Indonesian rules who in the past have restricted the age rule to below 60.
I wander how many more in Qantas will now extend beyond 60!
