Good luck and well done to those making a stand, personally I think other airlines are in similar situations with overall staffing issues. Where I currently operate the training staff have been getting it hard for years and there are strengthening undertones in those ranks that are now migrating outwards to line crews and management.
Why? It’s the same as Ryanair, incredibly poor middle management unable to voice concerns to high profile directors who are interested in nothing more than headline profits. Pair this with inept crewing practices, poor rostering and the perfect storm brews.
Well done the boys and girls of Ryanair, you are the first but not the last.
