QPC Briefing No 6 2025
Perth Information Session
You are invited to an information session and bargaining update for Qantas pilots in Perth:
Thursday 1 May 2025
Meeting 1: 1000 – 1100 WST
Meeting 2: 1600 – 1700 WST
DoubleTree by Hilton Perth Northbridge
100 James Street, Northbridge WA 6003
Both meetings will be followed by light refreshments and an opportunity to meet some of your AFAP elected representatives and staff. The content will be the same at each meeting.
While this invite has been sent only to AFAP members we encourage you to invite your colleagues who are yet to become members of the AFAP. It is important that all Qantas pilots are fully informed.
Industrial & Legal Review
Senior Industrial/Legal Officer, Patrick Larkins, will provide an update on Short and Long Haul EAs as well as topical cases the AFAP has lead the industry in such as the Network Aviation Intractable Bargaining Decision and Corporate Air Charter (the ‘standby case’).
Safety & Technical Update
An update will be provided on the AFAP’s effort towards improving safety standards (including fatigue management and security screening improvements).
AFAP’s Safety & Technical services such as the 24/7 Accident and Incident Hotline, Safety Interview Support and the Resilient Pilot Program will also be covered.
Member Benefits & Services
The AFAP offers members a wide range of services and benefits, including welfare support and Loss-of-Licence cover through the
AAP Mutual Benefit Fund.
This event will also be a great opportunity for you to raise any issues or questions you may have, and to meet with other pilots and your representatives.
AFAP industrial/legal and safety/technical staff will also be on hand to provide input to discussions.
If you have a colleague or friend who is not an AFAP member they are also welcome.
