Virgin 3.1
How many of those were fully vaccinated? Because that’s the issue isn’t it - get the population vaccinated, almost eliminates the chance of people getting seriously sick from Covid, significantly reduces transmission of the disease and then things (like international borders) can return to normal.

Hotel quarantine isn't a long term prospective so it's a bit short sighted to give up a perm job for a contract.
QLD are already finding that they’re vaccinated everyone over 50 in some parts of FNQ who want to get vaccinated, and it’s sitting waay below 50% of that portion of the population...
These are the same oldies the rest of us have been disproportionately affected by, to protect them up until this point in time.
Time to give the way more vulnerable boomers an ultimatum before we just open up and they roll the dice.

Big part of it is that our whack job/conspiracy % of the population matches only that of the US.

70-80k, good promotional opportunities, day hours and a stable job.
Entry level jobs in various departments start around that number.
CC wages have never been sky high. Promotional opportunities are quite limited. A extra 20-30k a year just off the bat would be quite helpful to some. 6 figures would be in reach after a few years.
I got half that for the first 10 years in GA. Some years later I now earn 8 times my GA wage today. Gotta start somewhere!

Correct, I couldn’t be bothered to get out of bed to research posted statistical mathematical drivel provided by a prime Troll. NZ stats, AUS stats, Zimbabwean stats, yada yada yada. I’ve contributed plenty to the aviation industry and continue to do so, but I have enough wealth built up to allow me to sleep as long as I like. But you go right ahead and keep comparing those salary statistics Looky, you never know, one day you might crack your low paid salary cap!
If you’ve been fortunate or even prudent enough to secure a good retirement from your career, then more power to you.

While I think I know where you’re coming from mate, there a hundreds if not thousands of former Airline Pilots who are now getting out of bed for even less.

Interesting comment from someone who was complaining that the last company she dealt with didn't have feelings for a vulnerable family member close to her.

Kudos to a CEO not being afraid to say vaccinate the population and open the borders.

Virgin Australia’s chief executive has called for the country’s borders to be reopened before the stated goal of mid-2022, saying it made long-term sense even if “some people may die”.
