Qantas Group CEO Alan Joyce has advised the company board that he will bring forward his retirement by two months to help the company accelerate its renewal following the revelations by the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission that the airline could face “hundreds of millions” of dollars in penalties.

The ACCC alleged that the company engaged in deceitful advertising and sold tickets for flights that had already been cancelled.
