So does Jetconnect wear the cost of these free flights to/from NZ? Or does it come off Qantas' books...?
They'll come off the QANTAS books. Jet Connect will tell QANTAS it's your stuff up you pay for it.

So... in the washup... Joyce claims he is totally unable to pay any increased pay claims... yet he can blow (read "waste") up to a possible $100M on an exercise that achieved little more than worldwide anger from employees, the travelling public, politicians, and aviation groups... and which militant exercise, also trashed the airline brand, that he was appointed to, to supposedly "nurture" and "improve" its profitability?
This will run into hundreds of millions. If the engineers IA in 2008 reportedly cost the company $150million for a few hours stoppage, this IA by Joyce will run into hundreds of millions.

Free qantas flights to anywhere in Oz (not many) & NZ? qantas does not fly to NZ, J* & Jetconnect does, not qantas.
QANTAS does fly to NZ, but not many flights.
