Qantas has dispatched letters or emails to ticket holders to about one million Australian customers.
The communication describes a $105 million settlement for flights that were cancelled in the pandemic period.
The airline reports the payout will be distributed to eligible passengers who booked in 2020 and will be completed over the next few weeks in the near term.
that same day, Virgin Australia revealed it still holds $93 million in unused flight credits still dormant.
This amount was disclosed as the airline’s chief executive received a salary increase in the latest review.
Virgin has not yet announce any plan to release the credits as of now.
