I know I said EK could potentially lose 400 plus pilots but after talking to some of the pilots today the numbers are way less. Most of the pilots weren’t too upset about this farce so I don’t know what it is going to take to make pilots upset and leave. Certainly not this.
You are 100% wrong. The guys I did manage to talk to yesterday, all on the 380, were still relatively content here with none planning on leaving. Not anymore.
ALL of them said this was it. ALL of them are starting on apps and an exit plan.
These were guys who were
not already sitting on the fence.
