How long would it take JB to source a dozen or so A330's and throw them into the Domestic arena with a few ex QF pilots willing to jump ship to stick it up Joyce.
MC, the reality is there is excess supply in the domestic market. Cash burn on this capacity war looks like it will be coming to some sort of conclusion based on reports of capacity growth reduction.
Do you honestly think that QF pilots jumping ship will stick it up Joyce? You will only assist him with RIN.
There are a lot of Australian born A330 pilots in the world. Will placing a QF pilot in a VA aircraft want to make passengers 'jump ship' and fly with VA? In a time of oversupply, we all like to believe that we are better than our peers........but in reality you are no different to every other Australian pilot flying airliners worldwide. Please dont think that you are a scarcer commodity than your fellow professionals........it will only lead to disappointment.
The market will dictate your worth.
