Going,

I would not worry about cross contamination mate. In 5 yrs time JQ will be a distant memory. It'll all be QF again, a-la Australian. That was the catalyst my friend
Same paint job
Same uniforms
Just differing(read lower levels) of remuneration

A united pilot group. IN THIS COUNTRY:ugh:

LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL

THIS THREAD IS TESTAMENT TO THAT. :yuk:

A320 you for real mate?
Freehills, the same mob who wrote the WorkChoices Act.
The same mob Qantas use.
Do you honestly think that the company will back you up after you've bent an aeroplane? I would think the company would be looking for a scape goat and probably the only thing you would be getting from Freehills is a summons. That is after you've rotted in a Japanese jail awaiting trial for god knows how long? You think I'm joking well ask ALPA how many expats are presently cooling their heels in the land of the rising sun at present.

Any incumbent QF pilots who have done the hard yards in GA are quite entitled to advise current GA pilots on their carreer choices wrt Jetstar or airlines in general. If you are a cadet then shut the f**k up!!!!!!!

Desmo, have you thought of paying a psychiatrist for the help you clearly need?

Either that, or take some turbo lax, sit on a dunny for a good few hours and have a bit of an internal clensing.

Jetstar Asia vs QF CNS-DRW-SIN
 
Can report that Jet* have been receiving a bagging, and QF a backlash, since Jet* Asia took over the CNS-DRW-SIN route. Complaints of being "dumped" onto Jet* Asia without being notified. Pax having to sit bolt upright for six hours with the additional inconvenience of an hour stopover in DRW. Having to pay for drinks/blankets/food/pillows does not sit well with them. Pax paying for the relative comfort of a Qantas flight only to arrive at airport and discover that they are travelling Jet*.

Treated with contempt by airline management when they complain. Check in at CNS airport at Jet*, dom and int, is chaos. I would suggest that the Japanese and Koreans won't cop Jetstar even if they do get preferential treatment i.e. comfort packs. Low cost carriers can be tolerated for 1 or 2 hrs but not for 8. Have seen several very irate American, European and Asian pax after turning up to check in for QF flights only to be shunted down to Jet*. Not very pretty. Airport staff could not give a stuff.

I used to fly quite often CNS-SIN on AO and can report that the fares have not changed.

Also on the SIN-DRW-CNS route, there are a decent ammount of pax who join in SIN who have flown in from Europe and connected with this flight. I can just imagine what they are thinking by the time they get to CNS.
