Jetstar NZ Pilots vote for Industrial Action

Heard today that Jetstar pilots on the Jetstar NZ contract have voted for "Industrial Action". Rugby WC and all!

I guess the only surprise is, that it has taken so long to get to this. How pilots working at the same base, doing the same job, flying the same routes, on the same aircraft work on poorer terms and conditions as their colleagues is beyond me.

Earning 60% of the salary of their colleagues at the same base, why has it taken so long to reach strike action? Am I missing something here?
