Take a look out there Keg, the gigs offered by Parc, Rishworth etc, or even directly with other well known international operators, offer a hell of a lot less than the boys (and Girls) have now.
Yes, but will they be less than what QF is offering to fly in SE Asia? If the choice is between SIN on $240K SGD or EK, I know which one is going to pay better money and ensure the kids are educated effectively- and it ain't SIN.
The whole point of this is not what QF is offering now, it's what it's offering those it is about to make redundant- perhaps out of seniority as a result of what they 'win' at FWA- in a couple of years time.
