Love the PBS and hope that it works the way its supposed to,
however,
14 hour days are a possibility, 5 sector days are as well. Most days seem to be between 9-10 hours which is fine for me as it means more days off or potential for O/T (waiting to see what the offer is). 28 day roster which means 13 rosters per annum which under current rules would be an extra 140 hours for no benefit at this stage. Also Mel-Drw-Mel would be a single crew, no paxing, possibility also of some east coast-Per returns as well I guess, and potentially some of PB's flying if they decided to merge us with Kiwis.
Still need more information but the sessions are definitely worth going to if your interested in the truth and not just back galley gossip.
FAAA not present which also was a concern at this stage seeing as we are supposed to be voting on the EBA in Sept if all goes well. Waiting to hear what the Association has to say about it all. Currently VB CC is over 80% membership so if you aint in the union now is a good time to sign up and show the company that we are sticking together.
