Any news on the Air Pacific Fiji A330 contract? A few guys from over here were looking at it as a ticket home.


Last I heard the contract was very basic, short term (1 to 2 years max) and designed to work your ring off;

Age maximum 60
$1200 NZ gross per day (you sort out the tax)
10 days off per month
No Super
No AL
No SL
No LoL
Nothing else
Running the pay through the ATO calculator/ currency converter- 20 days per month equates to just $8900 AUD net for the most senior A330 Check position!

Looks like only monkeys from the bottom of the barrel will take this on! :sad:

From a pubescent, neophyte JQ FO, that is rather sage advice. :)
