I have no problem at all with Domestic crew, when they were Australian Airlines they seemed so happy, then the merger with Qantas occurred and it all seemed to go downhill for them.
veronica you should be delighted with a return to traditional domestic flying. As your Union has just said in a newsletter there is LOTS more domestic flying headed your way and thats got to be a great thing for your morale and job security. The SH FAAA also point out that there is also plenty of work for the MAM crew as well.
Now if some of them want to come to QCCA and fly long haul thats got to be a good opportunity for a full time job for them. If they want to stay flying domestically as casuals that a choice that they can also make too.
My info is that they are all joining the FAAA and many for the 1st time too as they felt the SH FAAA were not looking after them so thats also a good thing for the Union Movement.
The Short Haul crew should feel really comforted that they can go back to the whispering T Jet where they can really show their expertise
Great times ahead for all
