The skirmish between Qantas subsidiary Network Aviation and its pilots is back on the table, with the Australian Federation of Air Pilots calling for a 24-hour stoppage of all work commencing from 00:01 on Thursday, February 8, 2024. The pilot's union had called for a strike in October last year and later called off a second stoppage when it seemed new negotiations with Qantas might achieve a result, but apparently not.

We know that when an airline places an order with a planemaker, deliveries are almost never instantaneous. Rather, a first delivery is more likely to take place in a few years. There are, of course exceptions to this rule such as picking up a few whitetail aircraft or acquiring from a lessor. Perhaps an equally uncommon exception to the norm is waiting for first delivery for nearly a decade – particularly with a jet that’s certified and in-service: The 737. But, well, that’s the case for Vietnamese airline VietJet. The carrier signed an initial agreement in 2016 and is only now about to get its first 737 MAX jets.
