I'm led to believe that training cost/ period to be somewhere around 5 years. However so as not to disadvantage pilots nor the company if a pilot wishes to avail themselves of a promotional opportunity prior to the agreed freeze period finishing, they can still move, however there would be a prorata cost involved depending on how many years of the freeze had been served.
max autobrakes, The pres didn't mention that little gem. I am not sure the other advocates of the GOAL are aware of it either.
How is that different to paying for an endorsement or a bond? Both of which I believe the AIPA oppose.
What if a pilot couldn't afford or justify the cost of paying out a freeze?
Would the pilot then be disadvantaged?
I don't think the GOAL is achievable, or in the best interest in the short or medium term, of Jetstar pilots. I can't see any benefit to Jetstar pilots that would justify them taking a path at their own risk only, to achieve the GOAL.
