& no disrespect to anyone but isn't the success record of some QF LHS WB folk going back to SH (due age) been less than stellar ?
Is there any case law on this ?
Is this exactly the same discussion that VA are having re; the lack of flying the A330s are currently doing ?
Good luck to all , challenging times with Air NZ now releases 30% of staff & they are majority Govt owned (?)
Correct, I imagine that’s exactly what would play out. I seem to remember this exact discussion about a decade ago when we were last considering possible redundancies. Cant uphold the EBA redundancy provisions if it means the end of the airline.
