Any 'perceived' favouritism in the treatment of Pilots v Cabin Crew is most likely due to the relative strength of each industrial organisation and the percentage of Union membership amongst each group of employees.
The multitude of awards and conditions that QF Flight Attendants work under has led to a somewhat fractured group of employees with lower Union membership and I believe can be partly to blame for the 'dobbing' culture that exists.
It is out of line for the FAAA (whilst not specifically mentioned in the article) to be commenting on this matter.
