Qantas Airways Limited (ASX:QAN) is one of the world’s leading airlines and an Australian icon.

On top of its standard domestic and international flights, QAN also owns budget airline Jetstar, regional airline QantasLink and related travel businesses Qantas Flight Catering.

Today QAN resumed flights after the Fair Work Tribunal ordered the termination of industrial action by its workers.

The carrier sensationally grounded its entire fleet on Saturday in response to the strikes, forcing the government to intervene in the crisis.
