Public servants from the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission and the Civil Aviation and Safety Authority have accepted membership to Qantas’ invite-only Chairman’s Lounge, while their agencies were responsible for regulating the airline.
Three current board members and three senior executives of the Civil Aviation and Safety Authority , the government body responsible for regulating aviation safety, are also members.
Qantas has repeatedly refused to divulge details of the lounge, its membership, or the eligibility process. "I'm afraid we don't comment on the Chairman's Lounge," a spokesperson said. "Decisions by the Commission are made collectively, impartially and on their merits," the spokesperson said.
