Fundamentally perused last years financial report and there is no mention that I could find of revenue or profit from Jetconnect. In fact Jetconnect is only mentioned several times which was all very odd. No seperate breakdown of ASKs or EBIT nothing zip zilch to chew on. The amount Qantas saves by having this nefarious setup sham is bugger all considering shorthaul 737 pilots aren't doing much and could easily do 10 hours per month more! Same for the 767 even more so. What's the real reason. Industrial tension and leverage for 787 crewing. That's the perhaps the underlying game plan IMHO. Even cheaper than J*. How do you get a Qantas Jet command in less than 5 years? Easy join Jetconnect and bypass our selection process and 10-15 years minimum as a S/O and then F/O prior to command. Can't understand why we would be pissed off.
