I think that sums it up perfectly. The days of getting the money and the box are well and truly over.
If you want a gig in mainline, on mainline coin, then 21 years ++ to command should be your expectation.
If you want quick promotion, then pick somewhere else.
What will be fascinating to see over the next decade or so is what happens when there is no more growth in the alternative airline?
21 years to command in mainline pays a hell of a lot better than 21 years in Jetstar, QantasLink, Alliance etc. etc.
