VANZ

Just a couple of facts for those looking at VANZ

- You are paid in NZD with no super
- There is a 30 month lockdown after CTL within the nz operation
- Can you go commute to oz on your days off? Yes, but often they'll be in blocks of 2 up to your maximum of 10. And 10 is all you'll ever get.
- Compared to VAA, the VANZ work rules were written on slate with a chisel by Fred Flintstone. Lots of back of the clock and big days. That's not changing
- VAI transition means nothing but a new Ipad. Same bases, same money
- Don't go over expecting a holiday in nz before heading back to your domestic job. You have to want to live in NZ.
- No new machines coming, no commands coming. Long slow list now (albeit quicker than VAA but still 5yrs +)
- 28 day reserve block happening up to 3 times a year


Take all that as you will
