Ken, in the last 35 years not a single pilot has been offered a redundancy package from Qantas. Not one [unless there has been a private tap on the shoulder for someone who 'they' wanted to get rid of who was made a very quiet one off offer that no one knows about].
In the last 35 years, I'm guessing, about 800 pilots have retired or resigned. Not one package, Ken. The current crop leaving are not getting any redundancy packages either. They are either resigning outright, with heavy hearts for the most part, or taking 'leave of absence without pay' usually for three years but knowing deep down that there is unlikely anything to come back to.
I'm not speaking for other classifications but this is the PPRuNe, after all.
At least ask a management mate for the truth before you make such wild and untrue allegations.
