During the last refuellers’ strike on March 8, Qantas positioned an A380 at Tullamarine for the purpose of providing fuel for aircraft, operating to and from the airport.
There were no significant disruptions or delays.
A Qantas spokesman indicated they were prepared to do that again, in order to maintain services for passengers.
He stressed that Qantas had no direct relationship with Rivet and its employees, who had requested a meeting with the airline to discuss their enterprise agreement.
Qantas declined on the basis the airline was not the refuellers’ employer or contractor.

A statement from ExxonMobil said they were focused on ensuring any industrial action had minimal disruption to airlines and their passengers.
“We are working closely with our (airline) customers and we have put continuity plans in place to supply fuel to Melbourne Airport, as well as getting that fuel into planes,” the statement said.
“Given these proactive arrangements we do not expect any material impact to flights or passenger disruptions.”
