My sources tell me that the current QFLink fleet consists of:
13 x Dash 8 (100)
5 x Dash 8 (200)
16 x Dash 8 (Q300)
7 x Dash 8 (Q400) due for delivery in the first half of 2006 w options on a further 10.
Just guessing but my thinking is the majority of the 300's are based in SYD with Eastern and BNE with Sunstate and probably where the Q400's would go first sending more 300's to replace the 100 and 200's in other bases like MEL for Eastern and CNS for Sunstate which from what I can gather are the bases at the moment where the majority of flying is solo flying?
I am obviously not current crew but thinking back to my interview it was mentioned that you can expect at least one overnight a week in exotic locations? You can find info on conditions, salary and allowances at
www.wagenet.gov.au by searching on Eastern Australia Airlines Flight Attendants.
Maybe someone can confirm?
Also for another topic on the forum but from it would appear that now there has to be some vacancies made available soon as current QFLink / Jetstar crew are about to get some career progression into mainline?
