Qantas adjusting schedule as pilots at units plan another strike

Date:



Qantas Airways, Australia’s flag service, mentioned on Monday that it’s adjusting its schedule for a few days this week to mitigate any operational disruptions arising from a brand new deliberate strike by the pilots at its units.
The airline expects that almost all prospects will attain their locations on the identical day as their bookings, utilising a mixture of Qantas-owned and third-party plane.
Pilots at Network Aviation and QantasHyperlink units will start a brand new strike this week, as they persist in demanding larger pay, the Australian Federation of Air Pilots (AFAP) mentioned in an announcement on Monday.
The pilot teams try to barter a brand new enterprise deal to switch the Network Aviation Pilots Enterprise Agreement 2016, which expired in October 2020.
Pilots at QantasHyperlink and Network Aviation are set to halt work on Thursday and Friday, the AFAP mentioned.
A listening to between the events can be scheduled at Australia’s Fair Work Commission on March 14 and 15, aiming to achieve a settlement over a dispute that has continued for practically two years.
The union and the airline have been negotiating for over 18 months, throughout which the pilots have rejected three offers, together with a suggestion of a pay enhance of greater than 25% and subsequent 3% annual will increase.
The AFAP represents 95% of the business pilots employed by Qantas Group subsidiary Network Aviation, liable for flying each passenger transport below QantasHyperlink and fly-in fly-out (FIFO) as properly as non-public constitution plane below Network Aviation in Western Australia.
