On the flip side the ridiculous 100 hours a month thats now the norm will drop off.
I can't see how . It will be operated two Captains one FO . Captain hours will remain the same with the only reduction being in rest hours .EK is running out of FOs as they can't hire enough, so the few they have will just be shared around a bit more. So no hour reduction there, apart from rest hours of course .
We will still have people bidding for these patterns, and people willing to swap onto them without the productivity pay as per the new rules . The company will win twice, and the only complaints from the pilot body will be found here.
