I don't know about "shinny" (sic) jet syndrome. You'll probably find that they are leaving
because they are tired of working for the Qantas group (and enduring the way it treats its staff). Working for QLink used to be reasonable pay with a good lifestyle. That was why I stuck around for so long.
However, with successive EBA's the remuneration remained static (no, went backwards IMO), while lifestyle
definitely went backwards.
That's the main reason I left.
I couldn't be happier with the choice I made (and the opportunity given me). I now have a lifestyle
far superior to what I had
Good luck to all the QLink pilots on hold awaiting a start. You won't regret it
