With the softening of the economy, leisure travel is affected to a greater degree. Re Flight Centre recent release to the ASX. But being cheaper labour, Network can’t even take flying from Jetstar because ... it’s against the law.
Didn’t the Cobham 717s replace a fair amount of qantas mainline flying up and down the east coast? The fair work act didn’t protect that, why would it protect mainline flying now?
