The Business Post Podcast · Alan Joyce on Qantas controversies, Michael O'Leary and learning from failure · 17 Sep 2026 podcast

Well, let's not delay the listener or the viewer any longer. voice-verified

Here now is our interview that Peter did with Alan Joyce, the former chief executive of Qantas. voice-verified

Take a listen. voice-verified

That's when voice-verified

Welcome back to the Business Post podcast. voice-verified

Peter, an extraordinary interview with Alan Joyce there. voice-verified

With that question, I think he didn't pull his punches during the interview. voice-verified

You didn't certainly let him away with much there. voice-verified

I thought, you know, you pressed him very hard on some of the main controversies in the interview. voice-verified

And there were a fair, like he does have the scars on his back for a lot of those scrapes he has dealt with. voice-verified

And I think he got into really good detail there, particularly around COVID-19. voice-verified

And, you know, I mean, to have had the company essentially wave the white flag to the government in Australia after his tenure, I found it fascinating that he himself had his state. voice-verified

He would have fought it in court. voice-verified

He would have gone to court and fight it. voice-verified

So clearly there's definitely a motivation for him to kind of get into that in the book. voice-verified

But I thought he gave a good value in the interview here as well. voice-verified

And also, I think what's remarkable for me, as someone who has an interest in aviation, when you look at what Qantas has achieved, even Project Sunrise, the idea of developing planes that can travel all the way from Australia to London non-stop, a level of ambition there to even consider doing that. voice-verified

But like you say, even to undergo a restructuring of 5,000 people, the amount of money that that would cost in itself, I mean, these are eye-watering sums of money, billions of revenue, billions of profits that they're talking about. voice-verified

And it does go again, I suppose, to show the context of what level Alan Joyce has been operating at. voice-verified
