The difference working for AirNZ vs VANZ is night and day, from first hand experience. (Except for all the really good buggers at VANZ). If you are an F/O it’s a no brainer. Even as a captain it’s worth serious consideration if your bank account/ego can take a hit for a few years.
The A320 training dept are talking about commands going as low as 2-3 years. Currently at 5. There is 50-70 commands next year that manpower are planning....
yeah my bank balance couldn’t handle that..
VANZ for a NZer is going to eventually end up in either a contract overseas or a position in Oz if you want a change in scenery. If your a NZer FO in VANZ and want to stay in NZ, its a no brainer.
I suspect the 3% attrition projection is optimistic low at VANZ....
