The Jetstar NZ pilots are on their own seperate CEA for NZALPA members. When you join you automatically go onto the CEA (collective employment agreement), you then have 90 days to join NZALPA and if you don't your contract becomes an IEA (individual employment agreement) and you are on your own. I think they have around 95% union membership. The CEA is currently under negotiation as the current one expires in March.

I dont have a copy of current CEA but a brief outline is:

1st year A320 FO : $97,000 base + $3,000 when Queenstown qualified.
Overtime above 65 hours per month of $130 per hour
Overnight allowance of approx $120 per 24 hours.
No DTA at this stage.
Performance bonus can be paid when the company feels like it, they have had one paid in the last 3 years.
5 weeks leave + stats (8 days).
Staff travel in line with Qantas policy so is quite good, very cheap domestically in NZ.
5 years probably about right for a command but that could reduce due to an expected exodus of Qantas guys back to mainline over the next 18 months.
