The London base has been an outstanding success from other, more valuable perspectives.
The company got to increase the number of foreign based crews when the unionists said over my dead body. How hilarious.
They got to divide the cabin crew group between those that did want to work (over 70%) and the hardliners who were ultimately humiliated when the EBA was overwhelmingly voted YES. Further weakening the FAAA's bargaining position. How hilarious.
It also gets to further reduce the underproductive QF longhaul crews offshore hours because they are cheaper to use at home to Perth and back. How hilarious.
Your rampant unionism has brought some great leaps forward. Can't wait for the next EBA. That should be a corker!
