Apparently, he never learned to avoid flying into the proverbial square corner. The going rate in the U.S, (converted to the Australian dollar) is;
- A350 is $457.00 per credit hour.
- B737 is $366.00 per credit hour.
The cost of living in Oz is higher, and so are the taxes. Qantas pilots are based in two of the worlds most expensive cities. Hopefully the AIPA will grind that in the leprechauns pipe, and watch him smoke it.
They won’t, the board has already set the wages rises for the next EBAs , it’s 2.5%. Should it be more, yes, without a doubt, but that’s what it will be.
