I see a few hoops to jump through and even then…
First they need some takers, to live in the NT on that salary having moved from UK.
They need visas to work in Australia, issues just there.
The salary on offer may not meet FWC requirements.
They will need either licence conversion or certificate of validation.
Once all those issues have been sorted, they are talking about 15 crews. That would be about 10% of their crew requirement.

Qantas forced NJS pilots to relocate from Darwin when they closed their Darwin base (after 30 years of operation). These people were long term Territorians with homes, families and kids in school who would have stayed for the rest of their careers.
If QF can’t crew flights from Darwin it’s their own fault completely.

The free serviced apartment, Staff travel with QF and a touring roster with 14 days off is very attractive as an Australian!
Is that in your EA!
Normally B scalers get lesser conditions, the pay works out to the modern award rate assuming they are talking take home pay circa 76KAUD.

Its people like you who not only don’t think this offer is a disgrace, on a few different levels, but is something to be grateful for (i.e. You’d accept this) that see us were we are in this industry today.
I really don’t know how you live with yourself. (Unless you’re management, in which case, you’re totally used to this level of scum-baggery)

Serviced apartment provided at home base
56/14 Rotation with concessional commuting flights to UK (LHR) on QANTAS
I assumed this offer is undermining those already at QQ on the 190. Personally have no idea what their agreement terms are, so yes this is an assumption on my behalf, and a mild attempt at ironic commentary given how many highly experienced redundant pilots are looking for work in Australia.

I'm sure they are. However I think the employees of "QF mainline" (QF pre merger) should be the happy ones. Domestic has been far more profitable than international since the merger. I CBA to add it up but the differences in returns between domestic and international would be orders of magnitude different. If QF was still international only, given the last few years, there's a good chance it wouldn't still be here.

Who do you pay tax to in these international FIFO arrangements? Is the housing & flights considered a fringe benefit?
Historically the ATO has usually frown upon these type of arrangements and made it difficult.

Staff travel for the international bit to and from London will be down the back as all the comfy seats are long gone by the time the upgrades get to staff with anything less than an executive level upgrade category.
