Why would you expect any different. They talk the talk about loyalty but never walk it.
Qantas International is still vulnerable due to its small size. They should have three times the amount of 787s, they keep talking about these two magic routes to London and New York, two routes, not starting for years. Qatar, Etihad et al have launched how many new routes in the last few months?
United are coming for the Pacific traffic. Not sure what the plan is in that space. Asia is also weak. Pull those 788s away from its low cost sibling who can barely run them to schedule, install a crew rest, and get the place moving again. The next CEO has one heck of a task ahead of her.

This is a definitive admission by QF that they have no strategic plan going forward. Someone suggested in another post that the post COVID growth was impossible to foresee, plenty of other airlines did and QF didn’t.
I hope public get a look at these aircraft and realise what travelling should be like.

Joyce has very deliberately focussed on share price and bonus metrics for the past 10 years. This has meant that international market share and capital investment in a/c and staff has been so low on the priority list as to be a non-sequitur to all the pronouncements from mumble castle. As of December 2022, Joyce had a higher net worth than the company he has plundered. We, as Australian taxpayers and voters, have let this happen.

Leprechaun strikes again, to be sure to be sure.
Pity he cancelled 65 x 787 orders to get the share price up for his personal bonus benefits.
What’s your union doing about it?

Directing members to put their jobs and finances at risk will not win the day.

Qantas is a laughing stock, barely an international airline anymore, content to rip domestic customers off rather than grow.

I doubt many care. I mean, it’s only become about because they are so underinvested in the International space. Failures in the fleet planning department and so on, we could talk about that for years.

short flights long nights
If you're talking about my post, you need to re-read it and inject the sarcasm that it was written with. The stats/figures are there, after every global shock there has been growth greater than before the shock. I'd say Qantas management are pathetic but they're not really are they? They've all benefitted very well financially thank you very much, at the expense of your fleet. You've got to ask yourself how these arseclowns have hoodwinked their remuneration to greater levels than anywhere else in the world. Compare it to any CEO in the States and compare the fleet growth.
