the piece is illogical and unbalanced
Funny Wod.....that's what I thought about your post.
Tell me where the other full-service carrers domestically that operate with the same crewing complement as QF did?
ebt...That's the heart of the problem and shows your mindset...Qantas is a lot more than a domestic airline.
The money earner really is in the golden triangle with the business market and they will always be prepared to pay top dollar so long as they are recognised in the business lounge,on board and with on time departures...they don't want to fly on a airborne version of a bus.
The brains trust at Qantas has asked the national flying watchdog, the Civil Aviation Safety Authority, to give it the green light to cut cabin crew numbers on all its flights.
Mind you I don't condone the reduction on domestic flights either...but those who have never worked as cabin crew will probably never understand the real issue in any case...
