Thanks C K, my point was, yes I realize
VB were around before AN folded but they took pay for endoresment, uniforms etc to the market place when the industry was short of pilots. So before 9/11 the rot had started. Jetstar only continued it. People did not have to work for them (
VB) to stay in Aus. At the time QF, AN and even Kendell were recruiting.
So as for
VB and the threat of reduced T&C's may I say with respect "you started it".
May I rephrase the AN disaster emboldened
VB making pay as you start the new status quo. Supply and demand.
