Some agencies trying to transfer the FOs affected by the early contract termination to JetStar. They are also giving some FOs a chance upgrade, but with a catch. If you pass the interview, you'll have to wait for almost a year before you start training, for the meantime have to go home and wait for the call, without salary. There's some expat FOs recently released on the line as late as January too. No planning, or poor planning. Either way, it's done without concern for the pilots.
