Qantas has reported a 2014-15 interim net profit of $A204m, compared with a loss of $A235m in the first half of 2013-14. The carrier’s underlying result for the half-year rose from a loss of $A252m to a pre-tax profit of $A367m. Qantas is now tipped to achieve a full-year underlying profit of around $A1bn, following a loss of $A646m in 2013-14. CEO Alan Joyce says the airline’s focus remains on debt reduction, but adds that it could resume paying dividends at some stage
