Great news for the 717 drivers. Hopefully their seniority carries through onto the mainline seniority list.

Meet your new project sunrise crew when it gets going.

The end of QF seniority list is not where you want to be right now. |

How many AOCs does one airline actually need? Good news for empire building management I guess they get to duplicate everything again! |
As was mentioned in another thread, the 717s are the Fokker replacement.
Network will be the 320 operator and NJS will be 717 operator. Expect a bunch more 717s over the next few years. |
QF Management following the old expression...never waste a crisis!
As if there wasn’t enough downwards pressure on terms and conditions :* |

Perfect. Replace a very old plane with an old plane.

The 717s are early 2000s, same as a bunch of QFs 737s...
The Network F100s are early ‘90s builds. |

they bought the AOC You have to buy the entity that has been granted the AOC. If the entity is a natural person, the AOC cannot go anywhere as you cannot buy a person. |
I think some of my friends on the 717 will sleep a little easier tonight knowing they are bound for new management and a vastly different culture. The 717 has plenty of life in it yet and so do the crews who fly them now.

The timing of this move could be fortuitous for QF and disastrous for VA. QF could use the the low cost B717 to compete with VA on the East Coast routes charging fares VA could not match. The ACCC would be powerless to prevent this.

It's good news for the drivers but it really is a pretty grim aircraft - the design is well over 50 years old and so there's only a couple of Operators left - I don't think they have much passenger appeal TBH

I think you might be surprised at the passenger appeal. |

The Network F100s are early ‘90s builds. Have they actually confirmed no redundancies for anyone? |
