Yeah ok guys - so the MOST junior member of the tech crew is earning less than most of the cabin crew.
Even a checked-to-line ATPL-holding CFO is earning just a bit less than the CSM.
FO's ($116k) are pulling nearly twice as much as the most senior cabin crew($59k).
If you are so good that you deserve QF pay just 'cos you had to move away from the North Shore for a couple of years, you had better ring QF recruiting and let them know.
Yeah OK so it's not as much as QF. It is far less than many of us want to be paid for what will be the final stages of our career. But not all of us can get into QF and CX and not all of us want to move to the sandpit.
