They said there is no threat to mainline jobs, right?

Recent media release from QF PR:

'SIR EDMUND HILLARY' JOINS TRANS-TASMAN FLEET Qantas unveiled a new Boeing 737-800, named Sir Edmund Hillary at Wellington Airport this week, honouring the achievements of the legendary explorer and mountaineer. The aircraft will be operated by Jetconnect on trans-Tasman services. Two further B737-800s will join the trans-Tasman fleet later this month, named Abel Tasman, after the first European to discover the south island of New Zealand, and William Pickering, a New Zealander who made a significant contribution to space exploration.
Flying 737-800's that were designated to go to mainline, and fly mainline routes, of which this is one. Operated by pilots wearing Qantas uniforms, purporting to be QF pilots, but being paid half the pay.

Yeah boys, your jobs are safe.
