So, will todays traffic stats and associated release with a predicted negative group capacity growth put a stop to any recruitment in the next 6 months? Most managers I know would jump on this opportunity to keep costs down, flog the dead horse a little harder and move some costs into net FY to help meet their KPI's.

For those who think the good times are just beginning, they are about to be cut short, very short!

Shame. Don't worry, we are all psychologically tested/damaged enough to wait another 12 months. Yet they are transferring 3, 747 to routes into Asia, so it's not all doom and gloom. Keep your heads up girls and guys. Keep strong and ignore the naysayers! Cadets and direct entries!! It will happen by the end of this year.... At least one course!
The article suggests it is a reduction in growth from 2% down to the 0.5-1% range. It's not very specific and in the grand scheme of things it's not a very large 'cut', given that there will be more seats than there are today. Granted, it would be better to put an extra 5% into the market and have it profitable, but that's not the case.
It's a pretty 'wishy washy' forecast and I doubt it will effect the medium term growth plans.
Now which unions are coming up for negotiations? ;-)

it's also across the the group (QF, Qlink and JQ). Who knows which airline will be most effected.
Moving A330's off Perth runs would probably make up most of the QF reduction, but those services will be replaced by 737's. Then those A330's will be used internationally. As onedot says. It's a reduction in growth, not a reduction.
Blue sky ahead.
