That says about all that needs saying regarding the Swire "vision" for the future. Ironically, not even that event would really make any difference in the long run, as you will be spending most of your time desperately trying to lie and deceive the naive young inexperienced pilots you managed to con into joining, while at the same time the flood gates of resignations are open wide. The ONLY thing that will help this company is if there was a wholesale replacement of the spent force called Swire, and outside, fresh thinking and enlightened management comes in with new ideas, and a fresh vision. We all know that won't happen. One day the Swires will be sitting in their boardroom in London wondering just where it all went wrong for the once great airline called CX, not having even the slightest insight into their own key part in the tragedy they will have then wreaked on the airline and it's staff. You, and the rest of the Swire culture is toxic. You only succeeded due to a monopoly position, and now that the winds of competition are beginning to blow, you are clueless. Ultimately, it will be on your/Swire shoulders. Of course, you'll still be blaming the pilots, even then.
FFS. A previous poster said HNA isn't going anywhere. The thread was Titled "HNA going down" it was about HNA and its financial state. Analysts say financially it doesn't look good. A poster (management mole) said that was incorrect and he/she knew more than all the analysts put together. I asked if they could elaborate. You want to talk about something else, perhaps start your own thread.
"New ideas and fresh vision" Sounds rosy, throw in pink unicorns and houses made of candy.
Any thoughts on what this might actually be? If you don't have any then you don't understand the aviation market and if you don't understand the aviation market then why do you comment? Sadly every analyst and consultant (I stopped reading after 23 reports/insights) says there is one main expense that needs to be reduced to increase profitability. You're not going to like what it is.
Any chance you could offer one viable alternative for all the "tricked into joining" new joiners out there? Every S/O I fly with is sick of some old guy telling him CX is terrible when in actual fact they are clueless about the job alternatives. What alternatives?
