Appreciate any light anyone might be able to shed.
Thanks!
wouldn’t hold my breath for a direct 737 Perth(any Au base actually), this wave of hiring started about 2-3 years ago so lots of unfrozen SO’s and NZ crews about to be released to window seats/returning home. Even if they do become available the hold pool will have people in it that are holding out for these positions. If you want Perth, take the F100 and at the end of your freeze decide if you want to stay on for a command or jump ship to the 737/A320, etherway you’ll be senior to the hold outs who may or may not get a start..
