New questions have emerged about free flights taken by Australian MPs, with a focus on who flew where and who paid. Prime Minister Anthony Albanese reportedly declared 22 flight upgrades, with claims he coordinated with former Qantas CEO Alan Joyce. The government responded, stating that free or upgraded travel is common among parliament members. The Prime Minister's office denied that Albanese sought upgrades from Joyce, asserting that all travel has been properly declared and is publicly accessible.
