Back in 2019, the inflation rate was only 1.6% yet the union was taking PIA in an attempt to break through the Qantas 3% wage policy. There was no wage freeze either.
Now in 2022, with the 12 month inflation rate sitting at 7.3%, the negotiatiors are making no attempt to break the 3% wage policy or keep up with inflation, and even worse, they are trying tell everyone what a good deal this is.
This is also after most pilots were stood down without pay for a lengthy period of time. (Some perhaps over 18 month)
Sorry, not good enough and something does not seem right here.
