I reckon the ones that are too junior for a slot would happily take 787 MGH pay any day over being stood down.
The SO pay on the 787 is far from rubbish - it’s just not the overinflated 380 pay some may be used to.
It’s not rubbish, it’s numbers. Part 5 section 32 of the EBA if you’ve got access to it.
787 SO pay is low. It’s low, not only compared to Qantas SO rates, but also compared to the industry 787 pay. That’s why clause 32.6 is in there, to protect current SOs to 330 average pay.
And I hardly think the argument for ‘promotions all round’ is valid given the current situation, but thanks as always for your optimism (even if it isn’t skeptical in this instance).
