Do you understand that that would mean living almost each day of your life in isolation? You'd fly a tour for a week overseas - and when you're overseas you are in hotel lockdown (or if not you're likely in a country where you don't want to leave the hotel room anyway, nor should you under the terms of the AirCrew exemption) and then you come back to 2 weeks hotel isolated quarantine, which is longer your time off. Then you go to work again. Repeat.
Sounds like having July to October in Melbourne……but your sentiment is correct. Qantas have a bunch of S/Os who are beginning to wonder if being back at work virtually full time is worth the isolation.
