I’m not familiar with either of the awards you are comparing but externally the amount of days off sounds pretty good. Just a query though, do you add the annual leave days off on top of all the other days off? Or should you be subtracting the days off you’d have had while on leave from that tally?

Sorry if if that sounds confusing but I’m not sure if you get all the days off (13x13) PLUS the annual leave or you don’t add the 13 days off for the month you are on leave?

I don’t know the Tiger agreement that well but for Virgin Narrow Body it’s 13 rosters with 11/12 alternating days off per roster. If you get allocated or bid for standby (and some do) it’s 13 days off. 42 annual leave is separate. I think, but don’t quote me, you can take annual leave as a single day or as 42 in a row if you know what I mean.

The recent Eba gets extra days off included when the company wants you to flip you from a late to an early. As a result the days off tend to be more than the minimum. I’ve heard anywhere’s from standard 11/12 to 18 off per 28 day roster. I think Tiger is a monthly roster but again don’t quote me.

Will be interesting to see how Jetstar reacts as their EBA ends next month.

Bit of a pay difference now between VARA 320 and Tiger 320.

In relation to VA days off, you do 13 rosters a year of which 1.5 rosters are annual leave (42 days). The remaining 11.5 rosters have alternating 11 and 12 days off (minimum).

Therefore 132 days off plus 42 annual leave = 174 days off.

Standby rosters have 13 days off.

I've been getting about 2 additional days off (blank days) a roster since the new work rules were implemented.

Ok, thanks for that. 211 guaranteed days off per year sounded too good to be true.
But with the additional days off you’re currently getting it’s not far off. That’s great.
