Well, got the letter today!
Perth L/H base is to close at the end of Bid perion 242, 19 Feb 2006.
Our options are as follows:
Transfer to S/H Perth
Transfer to L/H Sydney or Melbourne
Transfer on leave without pay to Qantas Cabin Crew UK in London
Expressions of interest for redundancy
Even though we knew it was coming it is still a bit of a shock.
There are some very good crew flying out of Perth and because it is a small base we all know each other well.
At least a decision has been made at last and we no longer have it hanging over us with constant speculation.
Oh i forgot to mention that the "pretend" base manager as PerthFlyGirl called her is very conveniently on leave until first week of November leaving Andrew who should have been given the position himself, on his own to take all the heat from those of us going to the mailbox this morning.
At least he's been trying to contact everyone up line to let them know what is happening rather than them hearing it from the Qantas grape vine.
She certainly chose a good time to take a trip to the Uk. Maybe she's checking out job opportuities over at Qantas UK!
