All actions so far point to this. Qantas tails, uniforms etc- Jetstar wages and conditions. Joe public sees the 'icon' still flying , airfares competitive, who cares about the working conditions . Sad but true. Just look at who does the majority of trans Tasman now. Pax either don't know or don't care.
