If Air NZ was serious about managing fatigue they wouldn't have just started rostering 3 Pilot Auckland London with 1 night stop in LA (actually it is really only a 2 Pilot crew as the SO isn't technically current on type). Stunning!
With this sort of rostering NZ Management need to wake up and realize their growing pool of 70 year old pilots will be in an even deeper sleep. It is fatigue inducing!
Everybody can see through the new staff travel policy. It's a revenue gathering exercise aimed at pissing off crew prior to negotiations.
