ANZ Contract Termination?
 

Anybody heard the rumor that ANZ has terminated all contracts with Qantas giving 60 days notice? :eek:

Depends what you're talking about. Engineering in SYD was given up a couple of years ago. If you're talking about ramp, that's been on the cards for a while, and from what I'm led to believe, it's a given it's going.

JHAS does engineering in Melbourne, is there any hints as to who the contracts are going to?

Whoever Virgin use, I'll betcha Air NZ will use ... Ummm so who does Virgin use...?

Toll Dnata

For Enginering Virgin use, well, Virgin.

I believe CNS and ADL engineering on ANZ still carried out by QF.

I have been told that in the near future ANZ engineering will set up in house in the remaining ports such as they have in Sydney.

Only thing I disagree with is these jobs should go to Aussies first. Sydney is dead set full of our Kiwi brothers.

Slamer, I personally believe they wouldn't go with Toll because its an emirates company...in saying that VA did...

Is this for engineering, ramp or pax?

In BN, NZ currently use QF for Pax/Ramp, but have their own engineers.
DJ international use Toll for Pax/Ramp and their own engineers for 737s + JHAS for the 777s I believe.

Perth too.

Ramp handling all gone to Toll Dnata from early next year.

That doesn't sound right with Aero-Care the GHA for VOZ out of PER for both DOM and INTL..

Virgin is a total sh1t fight for engineering handling. 737s and e190s are Virgin.
777s are AMSA 330s are JHAS and the ATRs are Skywest.

But there are many constant rumours that many of AMSAs are not happy with the service. Having said that the rumour has been around for ages and no-one seems to leave them.

Transition of all Oz ground handling (except OOL) will transfer to Toll Dnata at midnight in the last week of February, with stations transitioning 1 at a time every other night til the last station transfers on 2nd March.

Apparantly was a deal "QF could simply not match"

S2k

Toll have done the ATRs from day dot:ok:

In which port?

Doesn't it point out something about Qantas though if they can't match Toll Dnata.

Qantas rampies are paid stuff all ~$20/hr. QGS even less ~$18/hr.

If the front line staff are earning absolute minimum wages and Qantas still can't compete, what does that say about the support structure around the front line staff. Obviously there are too many managers, advisors, analysts.. basically non productive staff. The non productive staff are a leech on Qantas's ability to function effectively as a service provider.

But I somehow doubt the 'essential' back office non productive staff will face the same axe everyone else is.

I have been reading this thread with interest as my son started work at QGS 6 months back. I was shocked when he told me his hourly rate. Would have been better off at Aldi.

I did a search and saw Toll Dnata was paying more than QF and that is where he is heading.

Surprised that no one has mentioned the fact that the lost of revenue to QF will be against INTERNATIONAL :ugh:

I'm not being funny, but how much do you think un skilled labour should be paid? That's the whole problem with Qantas and Australia for that matter from the cleaners to the CEO. We all want more money, but it simply can't happen.

How much is a fair bag chucker rate?
