Utter garbage.

Jesus, some people refuse to see the point of a post and only want to argue over minutiae. One of you insists I count F100’s and the other says I’m crazy to consider 100 seat regional aircraft, you...

Can’t speak for the others but I see the S/O positions at Qantas state:

I’ve not flown with a new S/O with any less than the above for several years now, so probably unlikely.

That is not correct.
Reserved positions only exist if there is a surplus on the 737. The 321 will need crew before the first 737 retires so there will be no surplus initially. Also dozens of 737...

What total garbage.
If you’re an airline pilot in Australia, you’ve got to choose between Bain & Co, Lim Kim Hai or Joyce. So tell me, where do the truly virtuous pilots work??

From what I’ve been told there will be 8 A330’s and all 10 A380’s still flying until 2023. So these orders are on top of those, plus the 12 Sunrise aircraft, plus the 14 787’s we already have.
