the trouble with the A380 is that Qantas has so many options open to it on crewing.
It could give it to us as an additional aircraft but will not do so on 182.3 hours a roster nor on our current conditions.
It could just set up a new company to fly it, give it to short haul who do 280 a roster for 25% less money than us or even wet lease with Jetstar Intl crew in our uniforms at 304 hours a roster.
Unfortunaetly the FAAA was hamstrung by its own members who said "no more hours" and no substantial changes.
With those restrictions in mind this is a remarkable EBA outcome that still gives us jobs going forward and maintenance of key conditions.
