My biggest issue with all of this is that QF will not offer Australian's cabin crew positions with the airline but are more than happy to export the positions off-shore. I couldnt care less if it was London, L.A. or Singapore the fact remains Australians cant even get a job with Qantas as cabin crew so any bases opened should, if they can, be operated and crewed by Australians. At least this would give people the opportunity to work as cabin crew with their national carrier.
