if were as as simple as arguing ‘but Tiger get this, we should too’ why didn’t we do it years ago with QF mainline terms and conditions?
Because its not that simple
Your entire point appears to be that we shouldn't be paid fair market rate because it's too hard and Qantas IR are too scary.
3% and giving the company more standbys would be an absolute joke of a result, leaving us not a little, but substantially at the bottom of the airline market in this country, despite being at the top in terms of aircraft size, leg distance, sectors flown and pax numbers. Not to mention the least time off.
There simply isn't any credible reason why we shouldn't pursue the market rate. Luckily, I haven't heard of a single line pilot beyond LL entertain any other position. Interesting times ahead.
