Qantas ex-CEO takes 900% pay rise, but bonus cut amid scandals

Alan Joyce, who retired early this month after a regulator lawsuit accused Qantas of selling tickets on thousands of already-cancelled flights, took home A$21.4 million in the 2023 financial year, according to the company's annual report, published on Wednesday. Most of the amount was share-based incentives that Joyce was allowed to cash in after they vested, according to the report. Joyce's total pay for the previous year was A$2.3 million.
