Attention all Qantas Long Haul Flight Attendants
DISPENSATION FOR DOMESTIC FLYING
Dear Colleague

Qantas has sought dispensation from the FAAA for long haul cabin crew to operate the 767 aircraft on domestic sectors.

DISPENSATION HAS BEEN REFUSED.

Qantas has allocated substantial amounts of our traditional international flying to your short haul colleagues on the Airbus. As a result Qantas now find themselves in a situation where they have insufficient short haul crew to undertake the very work they are employed to do and now look to the Long Haul Division to help them out of the mess they have created.

Should any crew member be asked to operate as previously mentioned, please contact the Association immediately on any of the following numbers:


Office Hours: (02) 9267 2533
Toll Free: 1800 267 952
Emergency Phone (after hours): 0414 894 192
