Qantas Airways said its flights were back on schedule Tuesday, a day after an Australian court ruling ended 48 hours of travel chaos stemming from the airline’s decision to ground its entire fleet.Qantas, the world’s 10th-largest airline, said all flights were operating on time and as scheduled, with the remaining backlog of passengers affected by the two-day grounding expected to be cleared by Tuesday afternoon.The airline grounded its fleet Saturday in response to months of strikes by unions representing pilots, aircraft mechanics, baggage handlers and caterers. The move threw the travel plans of tens of thousands of passengers into disarray, and prompted the government to order an emergency court hearing.
