Post Work experience at the airport.

Good Evening All,

Later on this year I have work experience for school and I am keen on doing something at the airport (preferably with Qantas) but I am having some issues in finding a placement. If anyone could post some suggestions on where I could do it or maybe even some numbers I could call, it would be much appreciated.

Thanks

Would other airlines (I.e. Virgin, REX, etc) also offer Work Experience? I'd also suggest that as another avenue.

I tried Virgin but they said they only had check-in placements available. But I am contacting Air Services Australia and some other companies. Thanks for the imput.

Have you tried airport admin mate??

Last year i did a week with Adelaide Airport Ltd and spent time in admin, airport management, security, runway checking, apron maintenance and in the tower as well.

They even got me a joyflight at Parafield airport....

I didnt catch which airport you were trying for, but for a general experience it is not to be missed!
