"Where to now" should read, "Cutting to where now?"

If you are a Qantas pilot, I wouldn't be too concerned just yet. Qantas will have a very difficult time making pilots redundant. They have to offer employment to people in their other business branches such as Jetstar (provided they are employing) before you get made redundant.

However, Jetstar is going on a pretty hard recruitment drive and it's tough to see where they will be based, it's almost like Jetstar is starting to hold the surplus.

As for Qantas offering jobs at Jetstar to pilots, it's all well and good while they are associated... but what if China Eastern decided to buy Jetstar.. And Qantas is no longer part of the Jetstar group...

China Eastern would love to spread their wings...

Just rumours.. Discuss.
