[QUOTE=altocu]"Also hear the interest of current J* pilots in moving to J* Int is lackluster in the extreme. The question of days off overseas and being able to get overtime hours on the international fleet is the worry."
2 things worthy of note. There is no J* vs J* Int. There is only one J*(in Aus that is) There is a narrow body fleet and a wide body fleet but only one Pilot Body.
Days off overseas are not an issue as the agreement provides for days off in home base, any days off overseas are in addition to the minimum in home base.
The truth is most of the J* pilots simply prefer to fly domestically(short haul) versus internationally (long haul) at this point in time.
