Dreamliners need to prove their worth before Qantas orders more
Qantas chief Alan Joyce says the airline will need to see further improvement in its international business before it can justify ordering more Boeing Dreamliners. The first of 8 787-9 Dreamliners it has on order landed in Australia earlier this month, but Joyce said Friday shareholders expected the "game-changing" aircraft to prove their worth. His comments came as Qantas chairman Leigh Clifford Friday defended his CE's bumper A$25m pay packet in 2017, which was bolstered by shares Joyce was issued 3 years ago and which vested after his successful execution of the airline's $2b turnaround plan. International remains one of the toughest areas of Qantas' business, even as the group's financial fortunes have recovered in recent years. <br/>
