On the other hand, it would be a big win for VA to be able to get back to that kind of operation and would, likely, be a short-term solution until they were in a position to source and operate their own aircraft. VA's success in this sense would only serve to improve the pay and conditions for on-board crew in the longer term, surely? And, indeed, such services may well be operated with VA cabin crew. |

What lot of claims?
EA negotiation is underway for the following work groups: Ground Crew VAA (ADL, BNE, SYD, MEL) Engineers VAA Engineers VARA Pilots VARA Cabin Crew VAA next quarter Pilots VAA end of year Most of these groups have gone backwards in pay and conditions while their peers at other companies have gone forward. VAA pilots and CC are on lower salaries than Qantas 737, JQ A320 and even the since-rejected offer from Rex 737. It's not a happy place at Virgin. |

I feel for VA staff but at the end of the day they are run by a VC, VA are apparently bullish about an international push with China the focus, and Smartlinx are recruiting crew with Chinese Visa preferences ….
