Agreed, but the thing I don't understand about F*cking Unions (and we really suffered in Ryanair courtesy of the Irish & UK pilots Union's - IALPA & BALPA's - inability to act together) is why these highly paid "activists " (Ha Bloody Ha) couldn't coordinate something between them in the Springtime & really nail this. As Lufthansa proved (& BA) CC are more than enough, so why the **** couldn't the pilots & CC Unions get their act "together" 6 mths ago ? to ALL of our benefit
I say this as a Contractor, who is now being implored by the Union to sign up & put my name down for legal action to demand permanent employment from NAS (but no NAS employment & no employment in Norway = what ? zero protection ? ) who they previously thought was the "bad guy", but, in fact, I want the same as everyone else.
So, why the hell they (pilot & CC union ) couldn't coordinate & do something decisive 6 mths ago, when they had all the support of NAS pilots ( & CC?) & indeed most pilots in Scandinavia I am told.
Yeah yeah, I am only a stupid contractor, so why don't I get my name in Court fighting the battle that you managed to lose 6mths ago

Jeezuz guys, is that the best we can expect from a Union ?
