Mr Joyce added that Qantas and its budget subsidiary Jetstar, would be to extend a vacation for around 15,000 workers ", because We Are waiting for The Recovery that we come to know".
Australia is flattened on its virus curve faster than other Nations, which means the demand for domestic flights returned and is expected to fully recover until the Year 2022.
But The International demand at this Time Is likely to told the half of what it was, Qantas.
The airline also plans to increase$1. 9bn (£1. 05bn; $1. 3 billion) to accelerate Equity , the first such move in 10 Years - new funds and help his recovery.

Australia's borders remain quite closed, the in-and Out - Apart from the return of citizens or for passengers with exceptional circumstances. And the comments from Qantas today tell.
With grounding to the majority of The International fleet "for at least The Next Year ," the airline is clearly not expected to open international borders in a meaningful way until at least June 2021.
Should be spoken the much-about the trans-Tasman bubble between Australia and New Zealand to open up, Qantas is certainly a part of it.
But for non-Australians in the hope of a family pack to visit Abroad or for the Aussies eyeing a holiday to Bali - There are no need to the Pass for a while yet.
of course, today, the biggest thoughts go Out to the 6,000 or so Qantas employees who will lose their jobs, and the 15,000 employees who remain to Stand down.
Mr. Joyce's hope is full on the half of this last group back to the airline to help run domestic routes, the fly, until The End of the Year on the back of ramped up demand, this huge country. To allow that hinges on Australia's States, the opening of borders to travel freely.
And that depends on Australia Covid-19 does not hold well under Control - so outbreaks like The One that we see now in Melbourne The Norm .
