I TOLD YOU SO!
there you go - the loss of the CNS -NRT trips to AO sounds the death knell for the BNE base
CNS -NRT patterns would have to make up 30-40% of the BNE base flying
the beginning of the end - just like they did with the PER base- slowly took all the flying away and gave it to short haul or jet *
the company has got the most senior crew right in their gun sights -it will soon be put to their head and it will either be
1. short haul - 246 hrs per roster & no allowances (and you'll be flying to NRT again!)
2. or the highway -there will be no VR package offered under the new IR laws
it will be interesting listening to some our most senior CSMs squealing like stuff pigs to be allowed to cross over to S/H in category. from what I'm hearing from the fat, selfish & senior gooses of SYD - no such consideration or empathy has been given to our L/H colleagues in PER who are already dealing with the shafting.
who wants to make a bet that a major announcement will soon be made about Jet* International flying the MEL -LAX route.......
