Max.
You have hit the nail on the head.
By 'recognising' Jetconnect in the last EBA we have given the company carte blanch to unlimited Jetconnect expansion.
I wont even begin to comment on why this occurred, but if we look at the negotiating team, many resurrected from the holt era then you can draw your own conclusions.
The end game is near I think. Squeezed by both JQ and Jetconnect we are looking at massive redundancies, up to 1000 if my numbers are correct.
Dont listen to the wankers at fatties who bang on as if it will all blow over. Time to face reality and plan for your future.
The only problem is that as 'overpaid pollution' I fear the majority of ex-mainliners will not be successful if they apply to any other QF group operator.
Good luck to all
