Don’t get me wrong. There are pilots of all sexes who genuinely need a carer’s line but the flow-on effects for other (particularly the junior) pilots is a poorer lifestyle overall. They too have families and loved ones but by default spend more weekends away and have more disrupted rosters as a result of Carer’s lines.
Sound's fantastic, can a Qantas pilot of either gender just work when it suits?
Are these "carer's lines" granted on a 50% gender equal basis?
