But they have only been offered LWOP to work for Air Arabia! I wonder what response you would get if it was for a China Southern contract?
To all the Qantas staff, keep an eye on each other and stay in touch with those you know. The only other advise I can offer is don't read the papers, it just does your head in. So does reading Pprune, you just lurch from one tidbit of information to the next.
