CNBC reported that Qantas airlines had been suffering for a terrible fallout since the pandemic started. The airlines already removed nearly all international flights until March 2021.

Since the pandemic lockdown arrived, almost all airline companies have suffered a huge blow. Flights are not allowed in most countries and the health safety of their people could also be compromised.

That forced them to take a drastic change.

"We have to position ourselves for several years when revenue will be much lower," said Alan Joyce, Qantas Airways CEO, at the time. "And this means becoming a much smaller airline in the short term."
