Wow! That is juicy news.....I hope its true. I guess now that AJ is in, perhaps he is shaking out all the dead wood. I'm not getting excited just yet, until something is officially announced. Looks promising though!

Wow! That is major news... Strange nothing has been said officially.

I did hear rumour of a rift amongst the ladies of the inner circle. LG and AW?

It could also be that LG left at her own accord. Many higher level execs were none to pleased with the appointment of CEO. Perhaps she voted with her feet?

Just goes to show that, under Dixon, those in upper management seemed (to me) only interested in looking after themselves.

New Photo?

Maybe she has been promoted or moved sideways and is no longer associated with Cabin Services.
Perhaps she is just having a new post botox photo taken

We both must be bored I just did the same search. I also note that LG has been removed from the executive team on qantas.com which she has always appeared.

The QANTAS Thread

My wife's seniority global seniority was down by 30 this morning and this afternoon is down by only 16, up by 14 from morning.

Have more crew been been granted VR from March 1?

The number seems to go up and down when crew departures occur.

Regards.

we must save LG

If LG and all her cronies can form a cabin crew team, operating a LAX to AKL sector successfully then she should be saved; otherwise ground them in Auckland forever.

Forget the LAX/AKL too easy. Send them on a Mumbai trip, several back to back with minimum slip, only then will they earn my respect.

LG Departure and Global Seniority

Why merge two threads that have very little to do with each other.?
The Blacks Widows departure has nought to do with seniority.

The new Qantas Domestic people are maybe the reason for numbers going up and down. They are including them in the bidding process. (approved by the union...).

Up and down?

If my seniority is 600 and 70 new people are employed,my seniority is still 600.
New hires dont affect seniority except for bidding purposes

Not sure if the new Qantas Domestic will impact on Qantas Airways crew seniority as there is no seniority with Qantas Domestic. Read the QANDOM workplace agreement.

The Qantas Domestic people SHOULDN'T affect our seniority but it would if they are putting them into the system with different numbers. It would explain why they are on trips that people are bidding for. (I am just thinking out loud... but makes sense).
