Gday Moo,

What you have been told is correct, there are very few operators in Australia use cabin crew. When I was operating out of Sydney there was only one operator who has cabin crew, they used 3 girls but all part time and usually only 1 at a time I think only once there were two on board.

Having been based out of Oz for a while now I cant comment exactly how the Sydney market is, however the general trend for larger aircraft in the market does bode well for your prospects.

If you are willing to move you may find work with Crown in Melbourne on the GIV/V?

You may want to try the charter brokers as well, I know previously we had carried people where the cabin crew was provided by the broker (she was very well known and experienced) as a freelancer when we could not provide staff.

Failing that try the other end of the group of hangars where UV/Exec are, and you will find Hawker Pacific. You never know your luck.
