I have to disagree. If there aren’t enough bookings once borders are open, that’s a business / commercial problem.
Otherwise, why would ANY company ever pay VR / CR if they could just stand down the employee indefinitely?
Qlink and Rex seem happy enough standing down pilots despite regional travel being permitted by the government.
