Qantas engineers in Melbourne and Brisbane strike for 24 hours due to stalled pay negotiations.

Qantas engineers will strike for 24 hours in Melbourne and Brisbane, starting Wednesday, over stalled pay negotiations. Around 300 engineers demand a 5% annual pay increase, plus a 15% raise in the first year to address past wage freezes. The Qantas Engineers' Alliance, representing three unions, claims management has refused to negotiate further since last month. Qantas assures passengers that no flight cancellations or delays are expected.
