That is correct re: 400 in SYD and the subsequent flow on from that.

Quite sad.

What our "Leaders" have to realise is they don't need to throw lots of money at their staff to stay. Some of us want to stay anyway, but they must offer a career path to those that want it. Money wise ; incorporate the retention bonus into the wages and watch them stay.

You could argue that there was no career path when they joined so stiff; but things have changed dramatically. We are now faced with the situation of competition again. In QLD there has been no competition since Flight West and in NSW competition is limited to a few routes. With VB on the scene, we are going to get desimated, not just on price and product, but on customer service and community backlash.

Why won't they listen.
