Depends on days worked and destinations. AUD 295 per 24 hours in all the 787 overseas ports and don't forget ODTA/ADTA - approx $65 and $30 per day each. I'd say 15k would be conservative but allowances will obviously vary.

In short, yes in most cases on a small portion. The allowance is based on the ATO allowable figure but calculated slightly differently, leading to a small amount above the ATOs allowance which is taxable. In most cases it’s less than 10% of the total allowance.

I’m wondering if anyone would happen to know whether or not Qantas is planning to interview or advertise for externals this year, or ever again directly into Mainline? I’ve heard a rumour that they plan to only hire internally from within the group from their subsidiaries. The reason I am asking is to figure out my next career move and whether or not to hold out for Mainline to advertise for externals or join one of their subsidiaries. Any info will be greatly appreciated!
Some people say its impossible to support a family on single income especially being an SO but what about 737 pay? I am interested in Perth base opportunities.
Just got to watch those split dinner bills when away
edit it to say that’s on a 787 SO wage
And if people are going to add Super and allowances to those figures, why not chuck in a value for your hotel accommodations, your home transport, crew meals, etc, etc?
Perhaps just quoting the Taxable Gross is best, that’s what people use to pay their bills and live on, and it’s what will more accurately represent hours worked.

The numbers quoted here are way under the odds
The 787 SOs are grossing between 170 to 190 k per year
Staff travel is given early for Perth base & some kind of cash allowance
Don't believe the "it's not what it used to be" nonsense the QF pilots are all doing very nicely
$180k would be top 2 or 3 or 4 % of the income group in Australia it ain't all bad
& guys have got that with 1200 hours and just a couple of years in the work force

Can you please elaborate on the early staff travel for Perth base? I thought it was minimum 6 months (from start date) for everyone?

Staff travel starts after training is completed for 787SO’s that are Perth based and are Commuting. Not sure exactly how that is determined(address in contact details or specific request required). It is a special clause for just the above.
Whilst on topic. Any truth to this “cash allowance” for Perth base that some guys have mentioned?

No that is incorrect, I believe that is being confused with the initial training allowances which is applicable to anyone who is not based or resides in Sydney. There are two options, the first is the company pay for and organise transport and accomodation throughout training and the the second, you can elect to get a lump sum payment and you organise it all yourself

Any rumours that it will be open to external candidates any time soon?

There is no internal whispers so this is all crystal ball stuff but I hazard a guess at probably not before this time next year just by looking at the ones coming through. There are still people from the 2016 recruitment drive coming through on courses
