Absolute garbage.

Are you saying that :
-FBT on staff travel costs more than free confirmed tickets?
-providing a parking spot costs more than a limousine to work?
-EK pilots use abacuses?

FWIW, I flew with an FO on his last trip in QF before he left for EK and he showed me the orientation paperwork he had been sent. This included a very specific breakdown of the salary and benefits he would be receiving. Things such as utilities, accommodation, private school for 2 kids, medical, ERP and many other things I can't remember off the top of my head. When summed up the total package cost EK around $50000 more than his gross salary at Qantas as an FO.

So much for the high cost of Australian labour
