To: All Virgin Blue Cabin Crew Members
This year, your Association has made a number of approaches to Virgin Blue to re-commence EBA negotiations.
Formal correspondence was sent to Management on 6 and 26 August. Virgin Blue has responded inviting a preliminary discussion next week for a “replacement Agreement”. At the FAAA's quarterly Divisional Executive Meeting next week, we will take that opportunity for Virgin Blue Reps and FAAA Industrial Staff, to consider the company's invitation.
We will update Members following the preliminary EBA discussion with Virgin Blue Management.

Moving forward at last. I hope they don't start using the downturn as an excuse to try and have conditions move backwards.
